-lowa's state board of parole has
officially declared that the smoking
of cigaretts leads to crime and has
promulgated a rule that: Any
prisoner out on parole who yields to
the temptation to roll a pill" will
be waited back to the prison walls.
This decision on the part of the
board follows considerable study
Of cigaret smoking and leads to a
decision on the part of the board
that cigaret smoking weakens the
mentality and stunts the growth to
the criminal nature. This theory
which has been asserted by eminent
doctors and denied by others, is
held by DR.. j. M. Emmert of Allan
ic, member Of the board of parole,
and the new edict has been issued.
