We must simplify and reform it as

the means of bringing capital and la
Dor to a clear understanding of their
common interests, which are no other
than the interests of the nation itself
as a community. We must release our
great undeveloped natural resources
upon some sensible plan of use and
conservation. We must recruit the
votes of forward men by the
votes of women so that we NAV have
a fresh insight in all matters of social
reform and move more certainly and
more promptly in the solution of the
many new problems of society with
which the law must ~henceforth deal.
We must unite the Americas, North !
