BOOKMAKING FRATERNITY
(To the Editor "N.Z. Tmes.") Kir, —At each meeting I have attended during the last twelve months the double event seems to be the uppermost topic. Surely the double event has been banished from the racecourse for some time past, or was it only put on one side, to allow the street bookmaking parasite to roam at large? Abo a far more serious question, do the police jwink at these individuals and also do business with them? In conclusion, let me add if the inspectors of police did their duty in each district these parasites and their clerks would be out in Itho cold and the worker who keeps Imcing going would have a fair run for this money when he invests it on the legalised machine. ONLOOKER. Palmerston North.
