ALL GERMANY is
FOUND AT RACES
Proletariat Fights to Get to
Betting Machines.

EERLrN, July os-Denoersey has real
~ reached Germany.
The racetracks show mat, II an other
signs were missing.
The hundreds Of thousands who now
attend the race meets In Hamburg.
Ruhlsben. Grunewald. Frankfurt and
Dresden are "of the people"
The pomp and display that marked
racing back in the kaiser's days are
gone.
The big crowds who now attend are
working folks. and they are taking this
amusement with all the gusto and en-
thusiasm that theiz former masters had.
The "kaiser's box" at one Of the su-
baFban tracks Is Etiu barred OF, just as
the middle roadway through the Bran
danbarg gate is scarcely used-from a
force Of habit which reserved the place
to royalty.
But the Iogss and all the fine places
are taken now by proletarians for. with
increased wages, and with no appreciate
increase in the price Of tickets, the work
inR man can enjoy his afternoons out
ing without nicking his pocketbook par
ttcularly.
The most amazing feature Of the racing
game, however, is the way in which the
public spends Its money Gu race gamb-
ling.
The ''tot2lisator" method is used, and
hundreds Of thousands OF marks flow az
ter other hundreds OF thousands into the
machines.
It is next to impossible to get TO the
machines ia which the few-odd marks
are bet; but strangely enough the crowds
seeking to make higher bets are even
larger than those OF the small bettors.
