corrective and not judgment But If our laws are
lax that they do not correct and In this way give our
citizens little protection then the weaker individuals must
get out of the road of stronger Individuals companies and
corporations or form themselves into groups powerful

in our own nation there have been many instances where
officials have been brbed to wink at lawessness, or to
