ABOLISH BLINKERS,
SAYS RlCIkG HEAD
Murphy, of New Orleans.
Writes About Track
"Abuse"
AUSTRALIA FIRST
COUNTRY TO ACT

Abolish blinkers on racehorses Is the
suggestion made by Joseph Murphy, the
New Orleans Official, in q letter to the
New York Jockey Club. Murphy says
that blinkers are productive to a lot Of
trouble on the tracks. His letter fol-
lows:
AS the war has demonstrated 10 our
government the absolute necessity OF
perpetuaeng the breeding Of thorough
bred horses as the essential fundamen-
tai OF The proper horse for army use.
] beg 10 submit a recommendation that
! am certain will improve the thorough
bred.
Il refer to the -ourtailment Tor the
present and eventual abolition OF
blinkers In racing This Is not a new
thought ] understand that bllnkers are
barred In Australia. We must not for
get that the Antlpodes gave US the
starting gate and saddle cloth and Is
wide awaks and progressive In the mat
ter Of racing. II we are 10 make good
our promise 10 improve the breed Of
horses we must not forget that man
ners are as essential as. soundness OF
limb and wind. We certainly would
not send one OF our soldiers 10 the front
on a horse rigged with blinkers. We
can justly claim that the thoroughbred
Is unafraid 10 take the same chances
as the man who straddles Il and does
not need 10 be blindfolded like the bull
flsht crowbait marked for disembowel-
ment
we should attempt TO produce sub
stantial families OF horses and not reach
out for chance horses Of erratio an
cestry.
1t would benent the racing too. The
use OF blinkers Is often only a cloak
for Inconsistency and the disuse OF them
would relieve your officials OF some Of
their burdens. My experience as an
lllcial has demonstrated that in many
;ases trainers use blinkers without
themselves knowing the reason why. II
hey were abolished ! am sure we
would have less accidents, fewer horses
cut down and less horses kicked at the
post The only argument have heard
raised against the abolition Of blinkers
Is that a man should have the right
TO do what be thinks will increase his
horses speed
Il would suggest that blinkers be
abolished In two-year-old races In 1919
'foals Of 1910. In 1920 that blinkers be
barred on fosls Of 1917 and 1918 and
in 1921 al blinkers be abolished. This
would work no hardship. ------
