 ON RACE QUESTION
PAPERS ALL OVER THE COUN- TRY GAVE HEADLINES TO

Was Accepted by the Press of the Country as a Movement to Provide Entertainment for the Resorters.

From one end of the country to an- other Hot Springs has received much advertising from the fact that a race meeting had been proposed here for next March. Articles sent out by Harry w. Lanigan of the press bu- reau of the Arlington and Eastman hotels were played up by the pa pers in New York, Cincinnati, Chi cago, St. Louis and other cities east and west.
 The New York Herald said: Hot Springs Ark, may raise the lic. business men asking for more liberty for the sojourners fer the next three months"
 The Cincinnati Enquirer said: At tempt to revive racing at Hot Springs is music to the turfmen" This was across four columns of that paper, and under another two-column space said: Hot Springs is enc more para disc for the sporting fraternity"
 The Chicago Record-Herald carried the announcement of the races at the head of the sport page, and also call ed attention to the proposed meeting on the society page, where golling and society also came in for atten- fion Hot Springs considers thirty days race meeting to entertain the tourists" the headlines said.
 Column after column of this kind of advertising was spread over the country, from the Atlantic to the Pa cific and from the gulf to the Cana dian border and not alone in the large cities, but in small cities as well, and incidentally the Florida pa pers carried the story.
 The facts are presented to show what attention was given even the indefinite announcement that racing would open here in March.
