If the House will refer to page 4 of the committee report. there is an indication of what the trend is: 44 cities levying this type tax. I hope the House will bear in mind in voting on this amendment that the Congress itself established a uniform national program for the funding of aviation needs. Bear in mind that we now have an 8percent charge on domestic passengers and a $3 per person charge on international travelers. There is no question that the head taxes levied by the cities have made for confusion and resentment on the part of travelers. It is essential that we maintain a uniform national system. Mr.
