THE TOTALISATOR.
< (Per Press Association.) Auckland, DecemTier 30. Sir George Clifford, for fifteen years president of the Racing Conference, giving evidence before the New South Wales Totalisator Commission, strongly supported the totalisator as a means of reducing the volume of betting. Referring to the general status of racing, Inspector Cullen also strongly favoured the machine. Ho was perfectly satisfied that in confining betting to those present on the racecourse legislation had regulated gambling successfully. Ho was opposed to bookmakers either on or off the course. All secretaries of racing and trotting clubs and other sportsmen present at the racing carnival who have given evidence before the Commission have favoured the totalisator, and the confining of hotting to the racecourse.
