TOTE AIDS BETTORS

One of the most successful i'm
provements offered the racing
public in many years is the total
isator. It operates mechanism on
the same scale as a cash register.
This system of betting presents to
the tracks patrons the prices
listed on each horse in every race
in perfect order and registers the
fluctuation of betting as each
wager is recorded on the board.
Consequently the public is able
to obtain accurate knowledge of
what prices are being offered and
does not have to wait until the lat
est possible moment to get only a
guess at what the money horses
will pay. Without the tote" it is
possible that as many bettors are
shut out when the bell rings as
those that actually do the betting
Pimlico is the only track in Mary
land supporting the totalisator. In
all probability the State Racing
Commission will eventually realize
the public demand for this method
of betting and make it compulsory
at all larger tracks in the State.

thorn in the side of his former

the Redskins were within scoring

occasions out of the % plays run

ards stand which would be stu,
ated back and above the odds
board in the centerfield. This
stand was 80 feet in height
closed on all four sides with
glass, so as to enable the stewards
to get a clear view of the races at
every angle. The downstairs sec
ton was to be equipped with heat
and comfortable furnishings. The
idea when this type of stand was
designed was to bring the officials
closer to the scene of action, in
place of having them hoisted atop
the grandstand roof. Also in case
of fouls made and claimed, it
would save time and be more con
venient to have the stewards
nearer for necessary decisions.
But the Maryland Racing Com
mission, represented by its chair
man, Jervis Spencer, failed to see
the benefit of such a stand and
ordered it to be placed as at all
other major tracks upon the roof
of the grandstand. SO now the
newly-designed stewards stand in
the center field will be remodeleo
into a sign painters shop.

with strong northwest winds will
certainly make the going most

about 860, 900 population. he stressed
that his country would not forget
her obligations to the Rome-Ber-
lin axis.
He did not explain or indicate how
he proposed to fulfill these obliga-
tons, but reliable observers thought
1t would mean forging even closer
economic ties, especially with Italy,
since Hungarians feel Italy chiefly
was responsible for settling the
Czechoslovak- Hungarian territorial
dispute so satisfactorily.

STRONG NOTE IS
 GOING TO RUSSIA

Moscow, Jan. 26-(UP)- The United States embassy was expected to present strong note to the So- viet government today, demanding that an American representative be permitted to interview Mrs. Ruth Marie Rubens, held for investiga- tion on suspicion of espionage.
 The demand will be based on the agreement between the two coun- tries providing that an American official may confer with an Amer ican arrested in Russia or Soviet official may visit any national who might be arrested in the United States.
 Loy w. Henderson, American charge d'affaires here, refused com- ment regarding receipt of 'instruc- tions from Secretary of State Cor dell Hull to press for an interview with Mrs. Rubens.

Federation Fight

Miami, Fla, Jan. 26-(UP)-The American Federation of Labor exc cutive council sought today to settle internal difficulties before consider ing action against the Committee for Industrial Organization.
 In additnon to minor jurisdic- tional problems among federation unions. which are before today's council meeting, it was learned that relations with the fedreation of two large affiliates have become strained.
 Council members said they had been informed that the Interna- tional Typographical Union was re- fusing to pay an assessment of one cent per member per month levied upon all A. F. of L. units to finance its fight with the c. I. O. The presi- dent of the I. T. U., which is still a member in good standing of the federation, is Charles P. Howard, c. I. o. secretary.
 It was reported that the 75.000 I. T. U. members believe the assess ment is extra constitutional and therefore void.
 Joseph Obergfell, secretary of the brewers union, said his members were paying the assessment only under the strongest protest"
 Confident, however, that internal differences may be adjusted easily, right wing council leaders planned to fight for forcible expulsion of the 10 "insurgent" unions which are the backbone of the CIO.
