He 4tdde<i that the totahsatdr figures had faileii off M far as most rac© Meetings were' concerned, and that tailing off was likely to increase in the months ahead. The country wis passing through hard times, which were brought a!bout By the Great Wtfcr and the general extravagance which had followed it< Th'erS were brighter ddiys ahead, no doubt, but it was felt by the ecrtnmittee that it would be ni mistake to hold tt Meeting, at this juncture. The fact that such a Meeting was for charitable purposes ttotifd ftot be of any gi'eat advantage, as had been borne out by the amount of support given to the Meeing held by the combined clubs to assjst the Earthquake Relief FUiid. Further, to clear, for instance, £2OOO, the Club had to fsiise £4OOO frohS the public, when ex* pensSs. including stakes, taken into' 66nsid«raij6n, artd that was not a titty of raiding funds to be recomriierided. 1/ such" a Meeting were held it would haiftf to' take place after Grand N»ti6nal Wfiek, and thrft Would £>lnc6 it near another trotting ftic&ting. Altogether the risk was tot* gr>at. He moved, however, that the club Vote the Jfiefnplog'ed relief lufid £6O. Mr R. Walme# MSMaila. thf ,ftk»ti6ii. Aii amendment, friored hy Mr R. P.

DOPING.

statements denied. The stfiteißciitd inad* by Dr. 11. 0. Louisaon at the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting drib's itteeiing ott Tuesday are generally didecttliited amongst trotting trainers, wild are ifr> dignant that anything of the Mtufg Suggested in Dr. Louisson's remarks should be levelled agfliridt them. One well-KhoWn dwner, With a better knowledge than the majority, said iMt if Dr. Louisson was so dure of Kid grounds regarding doping, Was it riot hid duty 1 to report to the authoritiesT "It is easy enough t<J mike allegations, and if one Were to listen td (ill the cackle concerning doping ond might make many such charges," he said. "D#. Louisaon 'a remarks aid datfiaging tfif the sport and if challenged, 1 doa't think he eould produce a dingle iil--stance from hid 6Wn knowledge i 4 id when a hordo had been doped:" "Such loose statements as those made by Dr. liouiddon tan be ftiade by ifiy 1 - one," said a Weil-iaoWfl trainer, "bit surely he Should hatfe dofoethifig tbote to go oil than the ffiiry tales that lire* told a hundred tifnea a day to anybody and everybody." . "Who doeS thief dopingf" was & tjuftdtion put to n Phbss reporter yesterday mornuig by an oWndr Of some 6f the best horsed that have raced in NW Zealand. "1 often wish that 1 «Mniid find a man who could make my horses go faster, but I know that it is an expert's job, and not One for every Tom, Dick, and Harry. Dr. Louisson's allege tions can be taken for what thoy are worth, but i am mightily pleased that they were published. It may influence people in the future to be more careful in the statements they make. 'Doping' is criminal, and Dr. Louisson has branded trainees ad Criminals. Let hiilf 6ptfit of cased he itriOWd, not What he thiAid he kn6Wd." "I do resent the imputation tSftt trev ting trainers are in the habit Of doping their houses," Mid another trftine#; "What earthly use id it? Does anyone think that a horse with a load of dojse aboard will go fadter than another horsef It is just ad likely to beeorte & lot slower and soine fnighty funny tales Can be told of horsed that have been d<rped.''
