SHAFER URGES
OFFICERS TO
ENFORCE LAW
widespread Evasion Of the
Cigarette Tax Law Indi-
Gated, Says Letter

Aid Of states ATTORNEYS. shcriffs
and police officers in enforcing the
state cigarette tax law has been ask.
ca by Attorney General George Shat
er IN circular letters sent out to such
county.
In his letter to the states attor-
neys Shafr said:
The new cigarette laws have been
IN force since April I, 1926, u period
OF about nine months. It is time
tnat we took note Of the operation Of
THESE laws from an enforcement
point of view, and to observe wheth-
CT the results are as good as we arc
entitled to expect. /, therefore, take
TINS occasion to urge you to invcsti-
gate the situation as it exists in your
county, and to ascertain. whether
these laws are being obcYed in cycry
respect.
Not Using Tax Stamps
1T has come to the attention of
our department that some dealers
have sold cigarettes without STAMPS
being affixed by law. The receipts
Of the state trcasurer's Office, where
these stamps are sold, indicate wide
spread practice of evading this pro-
vision of the law. Persons doing
this arc not only guilty Of violating
the law, but they are defrauding the
state out of revenue justly due it
Tor granting to them the privilege
OF dealing in cigarettes for profit.
think we should require strict
obedience to this provision of the
law, and deal severely with AN per-
sons guilty of violating it. Not only
should dealers who arc found guilty
DC punished by the local officers; but
the evidence OF the violations should
DC furnished to the attorney gener-
ATS Office, so that their permit to do
business may be revoked.
Under the provisions Of the law.
the responsibility for enforcing these
cigarette laws rests not only upon
the attorney generals office, but up-
on the states attorneys and peace Of
ficcrs as we'll. The law provides that
in the enforcement Of this act, the
attorney general may call to his as
sistance any states attorney and any
peace officer
Cooperation Asked
Il realize that states attorneys are
now burdened with many duties in
respect to law enforcement general
ly; so is this office. Nevertheless /
solicit your earnest cooperation in
the enforcement of the cigarette
laws, to the end that full and faith
full obedience to all of the provisions
thereof may be secured"
In soliciting the cooperation of
shcriffs and polite officers Shafer
pointed out that "there are 1000 H.
censcd cigarette dealers operating in
more than GOO cities and villages in
the state. This office does not have
an inspection force large enough to
adequately supervise the conduct Of
these dealers without the active as
sistance Of all police officers in the
state. accordingly solicit your
cooperation in securing full and
faithful obedience to all the provi-
sions of these laws

Many good players draw the right
knee In some, in the address. iowa rd
the ball. This is shown in Figure !.
This Is natural position, used by
Hagen in the address, because since
the right arm has to reach farther
for the shaft than the left arm, the
right shoulder drops little, and the
right knee should thus bend inward
toward the ball to make the body po-
sition natural throughout.
One immediate result Of trying this
is likely to be an OVERRIDING Of it. and
a consequent dropping Of the right
shoulder TOO much. Don't do that.
Stand up as erect as possible. An
other thing is that doing this exerts
an almost immediate tendency to
throw all the weight onto the right
foot during the address. That is all
right IL YOU wish to do it that way.
1t is better however. to keep the
weight about evenly divided between
the feet in the addr ess.
As the club starts back the right
leg then straightens up beneath you.
as shown in Figure .. The turning Of
the body then puts n very noticeable
pressure against the right leg, which
this leg must resist throughout the
entire swing. This pressure is never
