Anaheim Receives $4,209.07 of Motor License Fees State Controller Thomas H. Kuchel today announced the apportionment of $4,699,602 of motor vehicle license fee ("in-lieu" tax) collections to the cities and counties of California covering the nine-months' period ended March 31, 1946. One-half of this amount, or $2,849,801, went to the 58 counties, and an equal amount to the incorporated cities of California. The amount apportioned to cities and counties, said Kuchel, is allocated to them individually in the proportion which the population of each such city or county bears to the total population of all such cities and counties in the state. The county of Orange received $44,482.80 of the total and the following amounts were paid to its incorporated cities: City of Anaheim, $4,209.07; Fullerton, $3,984.32; Santa Ana, $14,-505.27; Orange, $3,543.23. A total of $9,103,670 in "in-lieu" taxes was collected during the nine months period. From this amount, Controller Kuchel was required by law to withhold and transfer to the state's general fund $3,220,375 to cover the current year's requirements for interest and redemption of the three issues of state highway bonds. The sum of $8793 was also deducted to cover adjustments of state employees' retirement charges for a prior apportionment period. The remaining balance of $5,874,502 was apportioned by Kuchel in accordance with the following statutory formula: 20 per cent, or $1,-174,900; to the state's general fund; 40 per cent, or $2,349,801; to cities, and 40 per cent, or $2,349,-801 to counties. Controller Kuchel pointed out that the "in-lieu" tax is an excise tax for revenue purposes, imposed for the privilege of using the highways for vehicle operation; and is levied at the rate of $1.75 per hundred dollars of valuation, based on the actual value of the motor vehicle as determined by the department of motor vehicles. The tax is collected by the department of motor vehicles and apportioned by the 'state controller. The apportionment for the remaining three months of the 1945-46 fiscal year will be made in July, 1946.

MINIMUM WAGE RATES FOR SUGAR BEET PRODUCERS Minimum wage rates to be paid by producers of the 1946 sugar beet crop who apply for payments under the sugar act of 1937 is amended have been announced and are now in the hands of the Beet Growers association and the sugar beet processors. The minimum piece-work rates specified in the wage determination average about $6 per acre or about 17 per cent higher than 1945 rates. Time rates are 5 cents per hour higher than in 1945. The new hourly rate minimum in all counties in California is 60 cents. This rate will apply for work performed either on standard rows averaging 20 inches in width or on rows wider than standard plantings. Piece work rates on standard rows in all of California except Imperial valley are $12 per acre for blocking and thinning fields planted with segmented seed. In Imperial valley the rate is $11 per acre. Fields planted with whole seed take the rate 14 per acre except in Imperial where the rate is $13 per acre. In Orange county, segmented seeds used almost exclusively. For the state as a whole, the first hoeing is set at $4 per acre and subsequent hoeings at $3 per acre. The determination also provides that the producer must have paid the rate agreed upon with the worker but in no case less than the minimum rate specified in the department of agriculture wage determination. Owing to the fact that more than 25,000 acres of beets in the 1946 crop are planted in single rows averaging about 30 inches, the sugar branch of the production and marketing administration is giving consideration to a revision in the wage determination to permit payment of lower piece work rates where it can be demonstrated that thinning and hoeing operations on such wide row plantings call for the performance of less work. Field investigations completed last week in all parts of the state where sugar beets are grown will be used by the sugar branch in arriving at new minimums for wide row planting which will reflect the smaller amount of work required to be done in completing thinning and hoeing operations.
