jthe United States. He is very imuch in favor of night racing in Ontario. In a recent address he said: “It has revolutionized the industry,” and he termed har- ness racing the fastest growing |sport in the world today, large lly because of night racing. |NOW A. BUSINESS

He further stated that the rais-

/pacers was a hobby for most ibreeders thirty years ago, but | it is now a business. ‘Despite its fantastic growth,” he said, ‘‘the jhorse industry has received less \from the government than any \branch of livestock, yet it con- | tributes more to the government ithrough the pari-mutuel betting 'on harness racing tracks.”

He stated that Michigan, last year, gave $322,000 to fairs to aid harness racing, and he noted that Ohio has¥put aside $618,000 this year.

There has been great agitation to have night racing in the race tracks in and near Toronto, but |the proprietors of the running race tracks are believed to be lfighting that move - the runners | will not race under the lights.
