decided here today at a meeting

Spencer j. Drayton, president
of the Thoroughbred Racing

In what he called the primary

"TRPB's second phase, its
preventive program, encompasses
six control projects" Drayton
said. "These controls are finger
printing, tattooing of the horses
stall application checks, special
reports on undesirables, police
supervision and personnel in

"The TRPB fingerprinting
program has been the best in

He bickered with George Valen-

once knocked ball high in the

NEW YORK. Dec. 2.-Opposi-
ton to off-course betting and
night racing was urged today by
President John A. Morris of New
York at the opening of the Thor
oughbred Racing Associations
annual meeting.
THE misinformed believe OIL
course betting and night racing
to be the quick road to limitless
revenue from an already over
taxed sport" Morris told more
than 100 representatives of the
associations 81 member tracks.
In pointing out that racing's
record business during 1853
would net State governments a
total of more than $3.50 million,
Morris noted:
"a significant exception to the
continued upward trend of at
tendance and business is to be
noted in New York. The sta
tistics for New York racing show
a decline at most meetings.
"This can be attributed to the
additional tax imposed in New
York. The law of diminishing
returns is asserting itself. New
York's experience is an lndica-
tion that taxation can be over
done, resulting not only in a
dwindling revenue but encourag-
ing illegal bookmaking"
Morris said the final figures
will show more than 28,250,000
attended the races this year for
a new record. An estimated 50
billion will have passed through
the betting windows, he added,
and more than $55 million will
have been distributed to horse
men in purses.
He pointed out the IRA is op-
posed to the Eberharter bill,
which would impose a Federal
tax of per cent on pari-mutuel
