BRITISH BETTING BILL
(BBrnsn ornciAL wibiless.) RUGBY, November 14. The Betting and Lotteries Bill has already been passed by the House of Lords, and all that remains now is for the Upper House to assent to minor alterations made in the House of Commons, and the bill will be on the statute book by the end of the week.
It provides for strict control of dog racing tracks, on which totalisators will be permitted, but prohibits large scale lotteries and provides heavy penalties for distributing and selling tickets.
