AUCKLAND, September 1
•’A large amount of capital has been invested by the proprietors of horsefloats, while racing itself provides con sideruble revenue, and I therefore consider that while racing is permitted, a restricted horseflont service should continue," said the No. 1 Licensing Authority, Mr. Phelan, after a tour of this district. “Racing should be centrnlized’as much as possible,” he added. "For instance, in the Auckland district it should be permitted only at Te Rnpa and on the Auckland courses, to which patrons will be able to travel by rail anil boat. While I «m unable to guarantee that horseflonts will be provided for those courses, I feel that were the racing fraternity to give effect to this suggestion serious consideration would be given to the question.”
