Utah group seeks vote on racing and betting plan
A Utah committee led by Secretary Lamont F Toronto proposes an initiative for a ballot question on pari mutuel horse racing in the November 1956 general election. The plan would divide the state into five districts each with one bipartisan racing commissioner and allocate 13 percent of wagering to fund schools and administration while funding the sponsoring organization. A July 6 filing would start a 13 month signature drive for 32 770 names. If approved the measure would set up a racing commission with per diem pay up to 500 dollars and district lines cover Box Elder Cache Weber Morgan Summit Daggett Wasatch Duchesne Uintah Carbon Emery San Juan Grand Beaver Millard Juab Kane Washington Iron.
