June Gas Tax Collections At New High Marking an all-time high, California's June gasoline taxes, the last at the 3 cents per gallon rate, increased to 4½ cents on July 1, produced net highway revenues of $7,255,374. This was a gain of $1,095,238, or 17.78 per cent, over the corresponding figure of $6,-60,135 a year ago. William G. Bonelli, of Los Angeles, chairman of the State Board of Equalization, revealed this record tax yield here when the board completed collection of $8,-58,238 based upon June distribution of 282,207,922 gallons of motor vehicle fuel. Non-highway refunds during the same month introduced the amount available for road expenditure by $1,210,864. Although the June sales exceeded those for the corresponding month of 1946 by 60,353,618 gallons, or 27.2 per cent, Bonelli expressed doubt that this was attributable to abnormally large purchases made in anticipation of the tax rate increase. He pointed out that, at the suggestion of the board, the Legislature had enacted storage tax of 1½ cents per gallon applicable to gasoline on which only the 3 cents tax had been paid. "Storage tax collections are in excess of $550,000," Bonelli added. "The tax was paid mainly by service station operators, contractors and others with large storage facilities.
