New Zealand bookmakers have amazed a. royal commission Investigating aspects of betting and racing there with statements that their organization the Dominion Sportsmen's Association has 400 members while its branches for years supplied results to government- owned radio stations. Although bookmaklng Is forbidden by law, and bookmakers are hale to a fine or Imprisonment, the association has been represented by counsel throughout the At least two of Its ranches. counsel said, were supplied with a direct telephone line to a gov ernment broadcasting studio. The fact that a government department thought it sufficiently Important to use the association tn satisfy the public demand for the broadcasting of race results i untitled its existence, he de clared. He also disclosed that the organization has throughout the-war supplied particulars of race dividends to another government department for dis semination among troops. A3 the association believed that these diyldends could not be re quired by the troops for other than betting purposes. It drew attention to the unsatisfactory position that arose where one government department con doned betting by forwarding such particulars to troops while another department condemned it by prosecuting those charged with breaches of the law. The association has urged the commission to permit book-making off the race courses. No application has been made for bookmakers to operate on the courses. It estimates that under this system each bookmaker would hold an average of $2,600 In wagers each race day. There would be 500 bookmakers op- Rlondic Hits the Jackpot. there are 60 race days a year DODGERS BUY the annual betting turnover Mcppn PI AVPR i civ through bookmakers would bi 1XCVjIW rLrt $76,000,000 and the estimated , BROOKLYN O Jackie Robin-revenue to the state from taxa-! son, brilliant negro infielder, be-tlon and bookmakers' licence I came the first of his race to fees would be $4,272,000. The New Zealand Racing Conference, the Jockeys' Association and counsel for the Associated Nonconformist Churches have all expressed strong opposition to the licensing ol bookmakers. "Bookmaklng Is anti-social and parasitic occupation," declared A. T. Donnelly, senior counsel for the Racing Conference. Bookmakers had always been and always would be "a corrupt or at least an undesirable Influence" on racing, he said. Wllllam J. Broughton, president ol the Jockey's Association,- claimed that licensing of bookmakers would mean that Jockeys would be asked to do tbings that should not do. Coun sel for the churches, O. C. Maz- engarb, said they opposed any request for further facilities for gambling. They urged the government to enforce existing laws and remove from broad-easting the reprcach that Its services were largely responsible for the inordinate Increase In betting in the past few years.
