MILWAUKEE,, June 10.-Wis-

Senator sMcC Carthy. Republican, Of

back for pressing his charges Of
Communist influence in the State

wire service. and have two 10 Is
telephones TO take incoming bets.
The wire-service information is
more essential to this type bookie
because he accepts far larger bets
than the sidewalk bookie and
takes bets up to few minutes
before race takes place. He
must have authentic last minute
information from the track so he
can lay of" large bets with other
operators for his own protection
and so he will not be taking bets
on race already run,
/ Top men in the bookmakine
business are the large operators
who usually subscribe directly to
the race wire service. In places
of lax law enforcement. these
bookmakers maintain commodious
quarters where bettors can con-
gregate to watch the changing
odds and results posted minute
by-minute on large blackboards
The committee ranked the fol-
lowing in what it called the order
of their Importance to bookies
and bettors:

The committee pointed out
that the gathering. transmission
and publication of racing data
is now a wholly legal business.
What its bill seeks to prevent is
the transmission and receipt OF
gambling information before a
race starts.
Need Wire and Phone Service.
The report emphasized that the
legislation recommended by the
committee was designed to curb
the operations of any national
race betting syndicate.
| Neither Continental nor the
bookies could carry on without

the report added.
In scores Of cases. the commit
tee declared. those who handle
racing news or use 1t as book
makers are well known local
',oodlun1s.
The committee said it had evi-
dence that in some States or
regions a few closely knit groups,
generally dominated by one or two
men, control the gambling.
Tnvasions" Resisted.
Such local groups" the COM
mittee observed. ''fiercely resist
invasions by others and this fact
lies in many gangster killings"
The committee reported that
some racing news distributors in
California. cut of from direct
wire service by court action. are
receiving Continentars news from

relaying this information to

In other parts of California, the
report added. racing news "ap-
pears to be obtained" by Long
distance telephone. although no
private Line telephone circuits are
leased by the telephone company
for that purpose.
Pirating Possible.
As for racing information leav-
ing the State. the report said
there have been difficulties and
delays in getting California track
information onto the Continental
wire quickly, but apparently a
combination of clandestine obser-
vations sent in by telephone and
pirating from the wire of reg
ular press association are the
means employed"
In it's 32-page report. the COM
mittee also pictured how the book
makers get their racing informa-
ton and how necessary it is to
the operation of what the commit
tee estimated is a SO billion to $5
billion a year business in illegal
off track betting. The report esti-
mated that the bookies net $500
million annually from horse-race
betting alone.
The report gave this picture OF
the bookies in action:
At the bottom of the scale are
the sidewalk bookies VINO solicit
wagers from bettors who have
already scanned the morning news
papers or scratch sheets and made
their selections. These bookies
are not seriously concerned about

odds.
