for an instant 1t was then that deter

She had not long to wait. At the last

"All over the country the women have
walked up TO the danger that besets them.
They realize as never before that they

they want IT will force it upon all"

STROBE TALKS

GENERAL MANAGER OF PENsA-
COLA AND TAMPA TRACKS FA-
voRs A COMMISSION APP
POINTED BY THE GOVERNOR,
TO HANDLE RACING.

Il have always contended that time
would eventually restore sane condi-
tions throughout the land, and that
the insincere reform wave of the
past few years that has especially
been so disastrous to the thorough
bred industry and racing interest
would be halted by the liberal minded
lawmakers, who by right and the will
of the awakened masses, viii be in
stalled in legislative Office" said ]. u.
Strobe, general manager of the Tampa
and Pensacola race tracks, when ask
ed to give his views on the racing
outlook in this state.
Already has 1t become patent that
the people in various states are
awakening to the danger of being led,
so to speak, by bigots and insincere
reformers who are using their new
asset for political capital" continued
Mr.. Strobe. Everywhere it is dis
cernible that conservative ones are be-
ginning to take more active parts in
the reign of government and are I'M
lettering states from former acquired
bad laws, and also preventing the en-
actment Of any savoring Of unpopu-
larity.
"The recent set back given to those
who tried to saddle prohibition on
this state amply illustrates that the
people of this state can, when oc-
casion demands, be counted on to
voice their disapproval regarding the
enactment Of laws they don't want
The ordeal that racing is undergoing
is not much dissimilar from that OF
prohibition, and II will not be long
before there is an awakening by the
people of the communities where the
sport had fiourished of the stified
progress and curtailed advantages
caused as result of prohibitory meas
ures against the racing.
TT has been the custom Of those
not well informed or with deep root
ed prejudice against racing TO ail

highest plan, is injurious to any COM
