Wilford asked the Minister of Railways whether what had occurred at Treutham in the last two days would load him to believe there was urgent and grave necessity for'an absolute reorganisation of the traffic on race days: and whether the Minister would provide better facilities for entraining at Trentham on such days as Monday and Saturday.

Horrics replied that if Mr Wilford would put his question on the order paper ho would have a reply.
