i Albany. Feb. 17 -The State Raring Commission,
eompo?~l of August Belmont. Edwin I?. Morgan
ail John Sanforl. presented to the Legislature to
nlghl Its Brat annual report. It Is an exhaustive
document, dealing in detail with the practical
operation of the G.-ay-Percy law and concluding
with su, h recommendations as experience has sug?
gested for its perfection. Two of these recom?
mendations will undoubtedly be the subject of legis?
lation. The first Will be an amendment of Section
Ii of tiie present Isw, so that it may be possible for
lh?? several ra ing associations to discriminate In j
?, h?? prli-er of admission they may charge to certain '
por'i .us of th-ir grounds where certain privil?ges
may be enjoyed, providing always, of course, ?hat
these privileges are not contrary to law and do not
contemplate pool-seBIng or bo>kmiking. The sec
ond amendment will be desigTieJ to make impos
Bible In future any stich r't'empt to violate the law !
as that which was designed by l>e Lscy and others
In th. Maspeth bogus fair of last fall.
In accordance With a strong letter addressed to ?
them by th,? Coney island Jockey Club, the lirook- j

? dation, rh?? Commission recomm? nJs that the Legls- ,
latore should lighten the burdens imposed by th?
Btate tax of E per cent on th? gross receipts, to the
IXt? t si least thai su .rh tax shall neither create
nor Increrse s ?!? ?1 It. The Commission sugge?;*
some ilternatlve propositions on the subject, but It
is understood thru, v.hil" it concedes the argument
of the associations, It ?? ?es not feel called upen to
Introduce legislation In the matter. From the tone
of the report it may be ?? spted that the commis?
sion will content itself with a mer.? report and rer
ommendatlon on thla subject, an?J will then allow
it to be entirely il the discretion of the Legis?
lature,
