 There has been nothing more degrading in this so-called civilization than the mistreatment of the sick and the lame. Above all things, that, together with starving innocent babies while throwing their milk into sewers, will go down in history as the most demon-like practice of all time. Under Direct Credits the sick and the lame must be kindly treated and all given equal treatment, no matter what amount of wealth they may possess. Class treatment of the sick and the lame will be forever abolished and this can only be accomplished by and through the elimination of private fees.

 The object of the legal profession should be to get at the truth and that cannot be done while opposing lawyers are fighting for the largest compensation that comes from gaining the decisions of the courts. And by and through that selfishness created in fighting for decisions and fees, lawyers practice all sorts of trickery and misrepresentation to win, seldom considering the truth at all, the object being the fees for freeing their clients, whether they are innocent or guilty.
 Now, under Direct Credits, the main object of settling a case in court will be to present the Truth, and that can only be done when the lawyers on both sides want to
