RACING COMMISSION’S REPORT.
MR. E. NEWMAN’S PREDICTIONS.
Speaking to a Chronicle reporter on Saturday, Mr E. Newman, M.P., predicted that the Racing Commission’s report was in for a “rocky time” when it comes before tiff* House. The reason the Commission')* was appointed, said Mr Newman, was that attention had been drawn to the amount of racing there was in the country, many people being opposed to any increase in permits. The matter was mentioned in (he House, and the Government appointed the Commission to inquire into the whole question. It was clearly understood that the recommendations- of the Racing Commission were not to be carried into effect until they had been submitted to Parliament and discussed. He considered that the Minister, the Hon. Downie Stewart, was quite wrong in his contention that the recommendations were to take effect at once, “and I think,” he said, “that the Commission’s report will have a pretty rocky time when it comes before the House.”
