Conclusions arrived at as the re sult of these investigations, which have occupied over nine weeks and are dealt with in the first section of Dr. Coplans's report, may be sum marised as follows:-
He was replying at the Home Office to a deputation representing the National Greyhound Racing Club and the National Greyhound Society. The deputation asked that the Government should not give facilities to Col. Buchan's Bill for the licensing of greyhound racing tracks by local authorities.

If that were the case and were proved we should naturally as custodians of the morala and wel-
fare of the people have to take
one view of the matter. On the other hand, if we were satisfied that this was a bond-fidè sport exactly in the same way as horso racing is a sport then we should naturally be compelled to take 'a different view. "
.
For The Multitude.
So far as this was a sport for the maltitude, in which working men could take their share, even more perhaps than they could in horse- racing, the Government would not hinder it.
All the facts must be put before Cabinet before any decision was arrived at.
He thought that the sooner Par liament took steps to stop juvenile. betting as far as possible the better,
The deputation was headed by Lord Aakwith. It represented the financial and sporting side of grey- hound racing.
About 10 Tracks.
Lord Askwith said that the re- port that there were 175 tracks throughout the country.was untrue. There were about 40 tracks actually running or starting. Regarding juvenile betting, he said:
We have not found it on the tracks that have been started. We shall have no objection to the clause in the Bill, which we understand you are preparing, preventing juveniles from betting, provided that it extends to betting on all sports and does not select one sport

New York, April 17th. Investigation, he said, had shown
Passengers who travelled last that drinking had diminished in the night by the Overland Limited, the neighbourhood of all big courses. Three or four million people had seen the races in the year, and there was only one case, he believ- ed, where a disturbance took place. After stating that the King of Spain, when at the White City, had said greyhound racing was the greatest cure for anarchy he had even seen, Lord Askwith said :-
Scarcely had the train left the North-Western station than a man wearing a cloth mask appeared in the observation coach, flourishing revolver and shouting "Hands up!" He herded a doze or more: Betting generally cannot be men and women on to the platform stopped in this country. It is at the end of the train, and took almost the inheritance of the Eng their handbags, purses, watches, lishaan. Greyhound racing has rings, and other jewellery, been the greatest curse possible to street-corner betting.
If the totalisator is brought in for horse racing it may be desir able at a later date to consider whether it would be advisable to apply it to greyhound racing, and our own idea is that it would be a good thing.
RETORT TO MR.
CHURCHILL.
Mr. E. J. Fox, president-elect of the National Federation of Iron and Steel Manufacturers, at the anual dinner of the Federation in London said that the Chancellor of the Exchequer consoled them for the present burdens of taxation by stating that his taxes were only the whips of Solomon as compared with the scorpions of Rehoboam, which he suggested would be the fate of industrialets if the present Opport tion succeeded to offoe
Unless, remarked Mr. Fox, come thing was done quickly to assist the basic industries, little would re main but the skeletons of a great past to withstand either torture.
Leap Into Darkness, Having secured £1,000 in cash "and many valuables, he pulled the emergency cord. The train, which had attained a speed of 40 miles an hour, halted, and the modern Dick Tarpin vaulted over the railings of the platform and disappeared in the darkness in the outskirts of Chicago.
His victims, including several bankers and politicians, rashed into the "Pullman coaches ahead, shout ing, A hold-up !" Mail and parcel post: guarda seized their their machine guns, expecting wholesale attack by robbers. But there was only one robber, and he had disappeared, so the train pro- ceeded on its way."
