REVISE THE MAYO-BREED FORMULA FOR THE ALLO-
CATION OF STATE GASOLINE TAXES I
WHEREAS, true State highway needs for the Southern ~

provision of equal state-wide traffic services, are in excess of
60 percent of the State-wide total; and
WHEREAS, the existing critical traffic conq..tion,
accidents and fatalities in the Southern Counties area must be
immediately alleviated; and

growth and development of the 13 Southern Counties is dependent
on the construction of an adequate highway and freeway system;

WHEREAS, based on the pertinent indices of popula-
tion, vehicle registration, and assessed evaluation, the 13 south-
ern Counties provide in excess of 60 percent of the state-wide
