commissioner Enright in a special
order dealing with the cases of the
twelve inspectors, said, in part:
Il am not unmindful of the fact
that the Federal laws governing Grim
inal procedure are archaic, insult
ficient and highly technical
In many instances where officers
of this department have undertaken
to obtain and execute warrants for
offenders against the Federal pro-
hibition law the unreasonable delay
in Obtaining such farrants had
rendered our efforts futile TO enforc

To 7DMETIMES it pays to lose
to win. This may sound
- misleading, but as a strate-
gical policy it is not without merit.
Here is where it applies. Suppose
you are facing an opponent who
has started out in whirlwind fash
ion, and is playing all over the
court and playing well. 1t begins
to appear as If you may be over
whelmed. You may not admit he
can beat you but you must con-
cede he is playing better tennis.
Still this man must have a weak
ness. All you have seen so far is
his strength. The flash player"
is not at all uncommon tennis.
BY that l mean the player who
warns up like a national cham
pion and perhaps continues to play
like one through the first set. But
as the match lengthens out his true
form is asserted, and he begins to
play with greater care and eau
ton.
