Mr. Sullivan then told of the !m portance of law enforcement and that state books are full of laws which should be enforced. He stat- ed that there was a growing ten- dency to enforce only the prohibl- tion law but he believed that al) laws should be enforced. He thought that perhaps more important than the prohibition law was the law gov- erning narcotics. The third subject Mr. Sulivan talked about was the three cent gasoline tax, to be used for main: taining our state highways. This re, soon to be brought before [3s lon to three cents a gallon. Mr. Sullivan stressed the matter of the club looking into these sub- jects, studying them and either en- dorsing them or repudiating them.
