C. A. Kornburg says he can- ?
not see the sense of enacting ,
laws and then not enforcing
them. A law should be enforc-
ed so long as it is the law re-
gardless of the fact whether
such law meets the approval
of all or not—it is safe to say
the theif thinks the law against
stealing should not be enforced
but every one else does. The
bootlegger don’t think he
should be molested and the
booze hound thinks he ought
to be permitted to buy from the
bootlegger at his pleasure but
no decent man agrees with
him.
