She leaned across the table and demanded in a heckling tone: "But you must know pairfectly well that these Labour Colonies are only tackling the fringe of the problem. There's no way of settling the question of unemployment until the capitalist system's overturned." He looked at her with wide eyes and assumed an air of being engaged in desperate conflict.
"Disrupt the flow of crystal and you'll set off major repercussions in the system's economy." "We know that, Major," said Walters. "That's the prime reason for this meeting." "May I make a suggestion, sir?" asked Strong. "Go ahead, Steve," said Walters. "While these graphs of Joan's show us what's happening, I think it will take on-the-spot investigations to find out why it's happening."
When I had worked this out, I saw that while the few tricksters of the 'System' had a perfect device for taking from the people their wealth, I had discovered as perfect a means of taking away from the few the wealth they had secured from the many. With this knowledge came a conviction that my way was as honest as the 'System's, in fact more honest than theirs.
The old log school house My studies and discontent My first drink of liquor The companion of my first debauch One drink always fatal A horrible slavery A horseback ride on Sunday Raleigh Return home "Dead drunk" My parents' shame and sorrow My own remorse An unhappy and silent breakfast The anguish of my mother Gradual recovery Resolves and promises No pleasure in drinking The system's final craving for liquor The hopelessness of the drunkard's condition The resistless power of appetite Possible escape The courage required The three laws Their violation and man's atonement.

The Ode is made up of such lines as the following: 'While meek philosophy explores Creation's vast stupendous round, With piercing gaze sublime she soars, And bursts the system's distant bound. Gent.
