Hiram G. Andrews of Johns- town as ‘one source of revenue that has not been touched in Pennsylvania. Andrews, who was reelected the Democratic party's leader in the state house, said the suggestion was his own and in “no sense a party position.” He made the comment in con- nection with a statement by Gov.- Elect James H. Duff that the 1947 Legislature foced the problem of providing “a large increase in taxes” if the things the public seems to want are to be done. “We tolerate the races but let | the people get out of the state | to bet,” declared Andrews, who | declined to estimate how much revenue pari-mutuel betting might | produce. “The money now goes to | Maryland, to New Jersey and to | New York” “But if we license pari-mutuel we should close down on out-of- state bookies who are doing a big business right under the eyes |} of the law,” Andrews added af- ter asserting “I understand from the public prints that such a bill will be introduced under strong Republican auspices.” Andrews at the same time urg- ed a ‘scientific analysis” of the present commonwealth taxes to determine who pays them before any new taxes are adopted.
