This is the departmental esti- mate although it is never possible to figure out the exact amount. The basis, however, is commonly that of numbering four persons to each touring car staying longer than one day and assuming that each pers son spends $5 per day when here, The great bulk of the American tourist traffic by motor car has come to 'Ontario and Quebec and the provincial statistics would seem to indicate that certain pub- licly owned institutions in both provinces have 'shared generously in the 'outdide patronage. For the season now closing the figures will not he worked out for some months, but there has just been issued by the acling commis- sioner of highways, George W Yates, an interesting statistical booklet entitled the Highway, the ER review, r cars increasing by about almost 100,000 to a total of 827.618, The motor truck is coming more into wse because, where the increase im the pass-| 'enger vehicles was 13 per cemt. in commercial trucks it aumberéd 16 per ceat. Estimated Revenue The estimated revenue from licenses, registrations, fines and gasoline (axes is placed at just am- der $23,000,000. All the provinces except Saskatchewan impose a tax on gasoline and while heretofore, the common rate has-been three cents a gallon, Quebec this year raised its tax to five cents and Pre- mier Ferguson has just announced that Ontario will follow suit in the coming year, Between 1926 and 1927 there was an increase from 550,906 to 740,398 or 34 per cent. in the number of American cars staying in Canada for 60 days and an even more remarkable increase from 1,521, 151 to 2,410,087 or 58 per cent, in the cars staying only for 24 hours, In the season now closing the yndoubted increase will be more striking, The figures convey some idea of the enormous visitation of the mo- tor, the equally enormous tourist traffic attracted by good roads and the hundreds of millions whieh, when attracted to Canada, the mo- tor car tourist, nearly all from the United States, sends circulating in this country, Do You Own Your Own FOR QUICK SERVICE HAYTON The Roofer ience.
