Resolutions Passed by Maryland State
Grange


Whereas, The Maryland State
Grange favors clean racing as pro-
vided fir by the laws of New York and
other states, and the breeding and
racing of standard bred horses; and
Whereas, We believe the free use
of stations offered by the Maryland
Jockey Club is misleading and detri-
mental to the breeders of farm horses,
as such grades are undesirable for
farm or utility purposes; and
Whereas, We believe that race track
gambling corrupts and stultifes the
morals of our citizens; and
Whereas, We believe that the gov
erning factors of race tracks where
gambling is permitted have an evil
influence upon the social and political
conditions of our state, therefore,
Be it Resolved, That we, the mem
bers of the Maryland State Grange
in the 47th session assembled de here
by record our disapproval of race track
gambling and will use our best en-
deavors to rid our state of this great
evil; and be it further
Resolved, That we will cooperate
with the Maryland Anti-Race Track
Gambling Association and such other
organizations as may have the above
purposes in view
