Of the total $33,522,348 distributed to California cities, Anaheim received $91,182.40, Kirkwood said. A like amount went to the counties of California, with Orange County receiving $684,695.22. The funds are distributed on a per capita basis, with the rate for cities slightly over $4.08 and that for counties slightly over $3.16 per person. The money represents all collection of "in lieu" taxes from Dec. 1, 1953, through May '31, 1954. The "in lieu" tax is levied at the rate of $2 per hundred dollar market value of each motor vehicle. Kirkwood said the appropriation reflects an increase of $7,236,010, or 12 per cent over the distribution of June, 1953.
