Here Comes The Bunny There Goes
Your Money" Says Fl. Armfie|d
ARONOVITZ
TELLS OF TRACK
BENEFITS TO
ISLAND CITY

Here comes the bunny, there
goes your money" brought the
house down at notary club yester'
day, when Father Armfield came
up with the quip.
Otherwise the heat of the day
was matched by feelings that rar
high at Rotary when the dog track
was discussed by Sidney Arono-
vitz, Secretary of the Key West
Kennel Club and Father Armfield,
president of the Key West Minis
terial association yesterday.
A motion to adjourn shut off the
Question period which threatened
to make even warmer the steam
ing noon day period at st. Paul S
Parish house.
Aronovitz, speaking elOquently
for the dog track said he came
not to convert anyone but to pre-
sent facts. He pointed out the ma
ny Key Westers around the tables
whom he mas known from child
hood on. He said that the kind of
people who will run the Stock Is
land dog track are people we'll
known to Key West, his uncle and
himself. He said that Abe Arono-
vitz, president of the dog club is
a notable reformer in slum clear
ance in Miami.
Sam Fri dland, track hacker he
said ii chairman Of the board of
Food Fairs, which is the nth lar
gest chain in the nation, and sixth
largest grocery chain. He is also
owner of two CT the largest hotels
in Miami Beach.
Judge Track BY Us:
Aronoyitz asked the men pre-
sent to Judge the track not by
tracks elsewhere but by the men
in the Key West Kennel club. Far
from being unknown elements"
as some groups have called dog
track people, these men are known
to Key West.
ArOnoyitz said that all stockhold-
erS must be certified as TO their
moral character and financial res
possibility by the police, she
riffs. and banks, at which they
deal.
Further" he said, "if the
people Of Monroe County should
ever decide that they don't wan.
the track they can by a majority
vote have the permit retrset-
ed"
The state benefited by dog rae
ing and horse racing to the tune Of
Sl8,o0 900 in taxes in 1852. Arono-
vitz said. Each county gets $lI2. 900
Of the tax money.

"I am sending you a clipping
from our last evenings paper. (Ihe
clipping referred to the discriml-
nation incident at Sky Chef Res
taurant.), Since you are a great
leader there and have been here
and will return to our city soon IN
regard to matters pertaining to the
Urban League, 1 know you will be-
interested in reading this"
The writer went on to say, This
is one of the many things that hap
pen here in Phoenix, and your So
called big shot Negroes who are
members of NAACP and the Urban
League do nothing about it. The

ter, had this to say:

cause they originate from persons
who lack a certain franknesS, hon
esty and cooperation which are
vital in community organization
work.
But this letter is important be-
cause the public relations programs

for honest dealing with all forms
Of criticism; in fact, criticism is
alwayN invited. Criticism is also
the normal atmosphere of most
public agencies because of the tre-
mendous variety of personalities
with which they deal.
However, too much criticism
especially if it does not. spring
from a desire to help an organiza-
ton, does not lead to the kind of
community spirit which, is at
tempted to be built Considering
that Negro organizations have
many handicaps and are working
in fields which meet tremendous
resistance, it might be well for Ne
groes to think-just briefly-before
they criticize.
Concerning the actual criticisms
in the letter, we are very pleased
to report that practically every or
ganization in Phoenix had a part
in the Sky Chef incident. Both the
NAACP and the Urban League
were in contact with the Mayor,
and he promised both organizations
speedy settlement of the problem.
The Uurban League visited Wash
ington Park recently and on the
basis of what the management
stated, we would advise Negroes
TO sit anywhere they please.
Nearly all of the downtown res
taurants have been approached by
your Negro organizations relative
to both fair eating facilities and
fair employment policy. We can
state only, at the present, that:
there is an atmosphere of prog

publicized.
Arizona has not on single law
which your agencies may use in or
der to break down the segregation
which we all abhor. 1t is, there
fore, necessary that the conference
method, or talking Il out with tae
managers, be used. This work takes
much longer than in state where
where there are laws which may
be used.
We invite honest, sincere criti-
cism, but please know that your
Negro organizations, as we'll as
many individuals, are at work
without the benefit of city ordi-
nances and state laws to back up
their requests. After it is known
what an agency is doing then we
will be in an intelligent position
to fully criticize that organization.
