Racing commission considers dog and greyhound track permits
The Arizona Racing Commission debated completed and partial applications for dog and greyhound tracks. Tucson’s Rillito track seeks 15 days if approved, with charity proceeds on one day. 60 days if it becomes the sole Pima County operator. A 30 day permit was granted to the Tucson greyhound track owners. The panel weighed Manzanita Park’s pre March 15 1949 operations under the old law, potential court action, and the attorney general’s guidance while other permits remain pending.

A congressional probe will run behind closed doors for a day or two before public hearings. The $1.45 billion arms aid measure tops the House agenda though leaders doubt passage amid mounting opposition. The foreign affairs committee may act by Monday with floor debate as early as Wednesday or Thursday.

Meanwhile the Ways and Means Committee nears final action on old age social security legislation to cover about 42 million workers against want.
