Everyone feels the statement TO be

we all are more or less sure we know
the cure. 1t Is not natural thing TO
find the products OF the earth In the
control OF the few, when they were
intended for the many. IL IL not a

must be forced out OF being, and the
natural order take its place. Here are
problems for giants to solve. but. In
stead OF our giants trusting nature TO
help them they so often trust TO the
artificial methods Of a Goliath. and they
