Help Fight TB r .'-V A. uy Christmas Seals !U.-t You And The Law There Ought To Be A Law No doubt, you've often said, when provoked, "There ought to be a law!" Well, maybe you are right, but we do have a few laws in the books already. A law has been defined in a number of ways. Webster's dic tionary has a whole column of definitions. In general a law is the binding custom or practice of a community; a rule or rules of conduct which are enforced by a controlling authority. This covers a lot of ground. In Nebraska each person Is subject to the laws of the Unit ed States and the laws of his own state. We have the laws enacted by our legislature and the laws which the courts have found to apply. We also have the laws or ordinances which have been adopted by our cit ies and villages. Our State Constitution, for in. stance, consists of seventeen articles with approximately 195 sections. To this we can add the seven amendments which it ap pears were adopted at the re cent election. The Revised Stat utes of the State, which are the laws enacted by past Legisla tures, consist of nine books rang ing in size of from 800 to 1,800 pages and an additional volume which is an index. Those laws cover most every thing that can happen to a per son from birth to death. In addition, there are 166 vol umes of the Nebraska Rerjorts. which contain the opinions of; the Nebraska Supreme Court from the early days of the state i to the present. Each of these! books contains approximately; 800 pages. Thus, there is a lot! of law in the books. Enough? This does not include ! the laws passed by the United! States Congress, many of which affect each of us personally. It does not Include the interpreta-' tion of these laws by the United I States Courts. Nor does it In-! elude the numerous rules adopt-! ed by the various administrative ' agencies, both state and federal. ' Nor does it include the various I city and village ordinances. Maybe there ought to be a! law, but the chances are there ; already is one. (One of a series.
