" N O " VOTE ON
R A C IN G BILL
KENNETH THOMPSON
SAYS:
“ Vote No on the Racing B ill”
“ Here * why we can’t a f
ford to lose pari-mutuel rev-
•nueti
“ (1 ) Taxes would go up.
Next year the State Treas
ury would lose roughly $1,-
OC3,0?0 in port-niurudl rev
enue. We taxpayers would
have to make up the loss.
•
” (2 ) The fairs will suf
fer and may die. Our 36
county fairs depend to a
large extent on pari-mutuel
funds for existence. They'll
each lose an estimated $12,-
500 annually if racing is
abolished.

” (3 , Oregon and Its 36
counties receive more than
eight (8) times as much as
the track stockholders are
paid in dividends. That's not
unreasonable. In addition,
official records and audits
show that over 98% of
every wagered dollar that
produces this revenue, re
mains here in Oregon.
