Also stands between him and his op-

the report OF the agent aud attorney OF
tie Bureau shows the nature OF It's
god work:
Il take pleasure N calling your at
tention 70 the fact that the mass OF our
work has been carried on without re-
sort 10 the courts. Much might also be
sad OF the readiness with which both
sides are often wiling 70 leave matters
to our decision, trusting 10 impartial
action on our part. We are first Judges,
and then advocates.
">tep by step we have toiled, until to-
day the Bureau Of Justice is recognized
a one OF the forces Ia the community.
Here Is our great city. with its teeming
population and its manifold interests.
Here are the weak, the poor, the friend
less. tlo cOul1lnki mere are also the
strong, the powerful, the cunning, the
influential. The latter are generally
able ~ take care of themselves. Ii Is
the fOrme- who need our aid. The
latter have their eyes open. The former
are easy victims. Here in this great
city are the Willy agent who sells OF toe
snstallmcnt plan, the furniture seller
who perhaps makes more on foreclos-
ures than on sales, the buslness-chanCe c
man, the book company with It's tempt
ing advertisements for agents, who are
TO leave a deposit; the money-loaner,
who read the advertisements in the
papers, Is willing 10 loan money simply
for the pleasure OF loaning it; the man
who wants labor and does not pay, the
oppressor IN manifold forms. the
schemer, the shark-all these are here
and their prey they find among the
poor and unprotected.
Between these stands the Bureau of
Justice, battling against the wroug-doer
and defending the weak, compelling
equity even where the law does not
help"
