NEW LAWS VIOLATED BY
MANY IN IGNORANCE.
The Intelligent and Well-Mean
ng Citizens Can Not Keep Up
With Legislative Activity
In Arkansas
___________ •
Nearly'sixteen hundred print
ed pages of laws were enacted
by the last legislature. All of
these laws carry penalties more
or less severe. In this place
scores, perhaps, of laws are be
ing violated by well-meaning
and intelligent people through
very ignorance. This seems like
a paradox, but it isn’t. Intelli
gence doesn’t necessarily mean
sleeping with a digest of the
statutes under one’s head. Laws
are enacted and the public
knows little or nothing about
them.
The violator may be an indi
vidual, a firm or corporation.
The penalty may be great or
small. The odium of law viola
tion clings to the violator, no
matter how innocent may have
been the motive for the infrac
tion of an unfamiliar statute.
The inflexible rule of the court
is, “Ignorance of law excuses no
one.”
A prominent man of affairs, a
Little Rock banker, estimates
that business interests of the
state are caused losses each year
running into thousands of c.
lars through unintentional in
fraction of new laws
A SENSELESS CONDITION.
The explanation of this de
plorable and unreasonable con
dition is that there is no practi
cal and adequate mlethod of tell
ing the public what the law is.
Five thousand copies of the acts
of the legislature are printed
somte months after the legisla
ture adjourns. These books are
supposed to inform 275,000 peo
ple. How many of the 5,000
copies of the acts referred to
will be read through from cover
to cover and thus serve to in
form the recipient of all the new
acts of the legislature? Let the
reader estimate.
Xct No. 3 will remedy this con
dition. A competent attorney
today explains section two of
Act No. 3, the Publicity Act, for
readers of the Independent. A
thorough exposition of the
measure will be found in these
columns, section by section, each
day. He says:
SECTION 2
Section 2 provides that after
ninety days from the final ad
journment of the General As
sembly a synopsis, to be prepar
ed by the attorney general, of all
general acts except those upon
which the referendum has
been invoked, to be published
for ten days. It is a well-known
fact that it is a long time after j
the General Assembly adjourns ;
before the acts are published, I
The acts of 1913 make a vol-;
ume of 1,584 pages. By far the
larger proportion of these acts |
are special and are of no partic-'
ular interest ercept to those of
the locality to which they apply,
but the few general acts are of
interest to all of the people of
the state and they should not
be required to wait an indefinite
length of timje after the acts
become laws to learn what they
are.
TlfE LAWS BOILED DOWN.
The courts hold that people are
presumed to know the law. Ig
norance of the law cannot be
pleaded as a defense; therefore,
the state should afford an oppor
tunity to learn what the law is
as soon as possible after the
acts become effective. General
lawsare p assed biennially regu
lating business transactions and
ather civil affairs of the people,
and yet the people, who are ex
pected to observe the law, are
not furnished an opportunity to
know what the law is until some
indefinite period of time, defend
ing upon varying circumstances,
!' A synopsis ,to, be prepared by
|the attorney general, will be a
; brief summary of the important
provisions of the acts and will
cover much less space than the
jacts. The synopsis cannot be
published until ninety days after
adjournment of the legislature
because the people have that
within which to invoke the ref
erendum, unless the emergency
clause is attached, but the sec
tion requires that the publica
tion shall not be later than one
hundred days from the final ad
journment of the legislature,

' Effective Today.
, United Press Service,
Des Moines, la., July 1.—Io
wa’s workmen’s compensation
law went into effect today and
the state is prepared for it a3
few states which have taken
this step have been. The Iowa
Manufacturers’ Association has
perfected its organization so
that the Association stands be

turers do not have to patronize
bonding companies. There is to
be a graded scale for payments,
according to the risk of the in
dustry. It is estimated that
Iowa manufacturers will save at
least $1,000,000 a year by carry
ing their own risks. Manufac
turers say they will ask no de
j lay and that they will aid in en
forcing the law.
