have as its backbone an army of willing,
energetic labor.
"The very fact that American labor
has stood nobly by its guns, resisting

feminine predictions on the altar of

labor will be organizing the women

fiable step, simply as a precaution
against any attempt to take an unfair
advantage of their labor to the detrl-

Continued from I'ace One

The holiday evidently drew great
numbers out of the city, for the side

Tho mass of spectators below Arch

"Germany," he said, "now has the re

fallen beneath German blows or Ger

forces of workmen backing up his arm-i

All Americans Members of One
Army, President Tells Labor
Washington, Petit 2.
The 1'iesident Issued the follow
ing I.abor Day inoclutnntion.
,My Fellow Citizens:
Iabor Day, 191S, Is not like any
Labor Day that no have Known.
Ijtbor Day was always deeply sig
nificant with us. Now It is supteme
ly significant. Keenly as wo were
uwaic n year ago of the entei prise
of life and death upon which the
nation had embarked, we did not per
ceive Its meaning as clearly as we
do now. We knew that we were all
partnerH nnd must stand and strive
together, but we did not icalize. as
we do now, that we are all enlisted
men, members of a single hi my, of
many parts and many tasks, but
commanded by a single obligation,
our faces set toward a single object
We now know that every tool In
every essential industry Is n weapon,
and a weapon .wielded for the same
purpose that an army rifle is wielded
a weapon which, if we were to lay
down, no rifle would be of any use
And a weapon for what? What
Is the war for? Why are we en
listed? Why should we he ashamed
If we were not enlisted? At first It
seems hardly more than a war of
defense agalns tthe military aggres
slon of Germany Belgium had been
violated, France Invndcd and Ctei
many was nfield again, ns In 1870
nnd 18GB, to work out her ambitions
1 F.urope; and It was necessary to
meet her force wun ioicp. uui u
Is clear now that It Is much more
than a .war to alter the balance of
power In Kurope. Germany, It Is
now plain, was striking at what free
men everywhere desire and must
have the right to determine their
own fortunes, to Insist upon Justice
and to oblige Governments to act
for them and not for the private
nnd selfish Interest of a governing
class.
Ainu of Wnr Restated
Tt Is a war to make the nations
and peoples of the world secure
against every such power as the
German autocracy represents. It Is
a war of emancipation. Not until It
Is won can men anywhere live free
from constant fear or breathe freely
while they go about their dally tasks
and know that Governments are
their servants, not their masters.
This Is, therefore, the war ro iflt
wars which labor should support
and support with all Its concentrated
power. The world cannot he safe,
men's lives cannot be secure, no
man's rights can be confidently and
successfully asserted against the
rule and mastery of arbitrary groups
and special Interests so long as
government like that which, after
long premeditation, drew Austria
and Germany Into this war are per
mitted to control the destinies and
the dally fortunes of men and na-

I.'ihor ICssenlial us Army
You know the nature of this war.
It Is a war which Industry must
sustain. The army of laborers at
home Is as Important, as essential,
ns the army of fighting men In tho
far fields of actual battle. And the
laboier is not only needed as much
as the soldier. It Is his war. The
soldier Is his champion and repre
sentative. To fall to win would be
to Impel 11 everything that the labor
er has striven for and held dear
since freedom first had Its dawn and
his .struggle for Justice began. The
soldiers at the front know this. It
steels their muscles to think of It.
They are crusaders. They are fight
ing for no selfish advantage for
their own nation. They would de
spise any one who fought for the
selfish advantage of any nation.
They are giving their lives that '
homes everywhere, as well as the
homes they love In America, may
be kept sacred and safe, and men
everywhere be free, as they insist
upon being free. They are lighting
for the ideals of their own land
gieat ideals, Immortal Ideals, ideals
which 'shall light the way for all
men to the places where Justice is
done and men live with lifted heads
and emancipated spirits. That is
the reason they fight with solemii
Joy an dare Invincible!
New Consecration to Duty
Let us make this, therefore, a
day of fresh comprehension no't only
of what we are about, and of re
newed and clear-eyed resolution, but
a day of consecration also, In which
we devote ourselves without pause
or limit to the great task of setting
our own country and the whole
world free to render Justice to all
nnd of making it impossible for
, small groups of political rulers any
where to disturb our pence or the
peace of the world or In any way to
make tools and puppets of those
upon whose consent and upon whose
power their own authority and their
own existence depend.
We may count upon each other.
The nation is of a single mind. It
Is taking counsel with no special
class. It is serving no private or
single Interest. Its own mind has
been cleared and fortified by these
days which burn the cross away.
The light of a new conviction has
penetrated to every class among
us. We realize, as we never real
ized before, that we are comrades,
dependent upon one another, Irre
sistible when united, powerless when
divided." And so we Join hands to
lead the world to a new and better
day. WOODHOW WILSON.

LABOR A MIGHTY
FACTOR IN WAR
Nation's Leaders Sound
Trumpet Calls to Great
Army of Workers
'EVERY- TOOL A WEAPON1
President's Keynote Echoed
by McAdoo, Schwab, Gomp-
era and Secretary Wilson
fly the Associated Press
Washlngon, Sept. 2.
Labor Day was observed In a fittngr
manner today throughout the United
States. President Wilson. In a Labor
Day message, laid great stress on
the part that labor had In the winning
of the war. saying In part:
"Every tool In every essential Indus
try Is a weapon and a weapon wielded
for the same purpose that an army
rifle is wielded."
Director General McAdoo issued an
ordor that railroad employes be per
mitted to participate In celebrations
of the day where essential operations
would not be hampered.
Director General Schwab, of the
Emergency. Fleet .Corporation. In a
cablegram to the American ,troops In
France, gave those forces assurances
that everything possible whs being
dpne by that industry.
President Oompers, of the .Ameil
can Federation of Labor, now '.abroad,
In a message to the American people,
pledged the fullest support of organ
ized labor to the cause of the repub
lic. Secretary of Ijbor William B. Wll
son. In his message to labor, said:
"This Labor Day finds America at
the greatest crisis In history. The
nation is engaged In the greatest war
the world has ever seen, nnd upon
tho results of this war will depend the
fate of humanity for centuries.
"We linve sent n great nrmv abroad
to co-operate with the armies of our
allies. Our navy Is clearing the seas
of the German submarines. Our men
in bluo and khaki hnve won glory by
many heroic deeds; they have helped
to Inflict upon the foe a crushing de
feat which, we hope, may prove the
turning point of tho war.
"But whether It does prove such de
pends as much upon those who re
main at home as upon those who go
abroad to fight. We have no fears
for our soldiers In France, provided
we can keep them well fed, well
clothed and properly equipped; they
havo already shown themselves more
than the equal of the Kaiser's beat
troops.
"Upon this dav, of nil days-, we must
consider seriously the problem before
us at home. We must maintain our
nimles in the Held at the top-notch
fighting strength, and we must supply
the needs of our allies and the starv
ing people of Belgium.
"This is a day on which labor must
consecrate Itself to a great task the
task of winning the wnr. For this
tremendous duty half-way measures
will not suffice. There must be abso
lute loyalty and devotion to the na
tion's cause these, I believe, our peo
ple have already shown beyond a
question. But more than this, there
must be a clear understanding of the
great need and a new determination
to gratify It.
$2.20 Wheat Price
Retained By Wilson
Continued from Pare One
then appear that an Increase Is deserved
over the present guarantee, however, It
will be applied only to those who have,
by next harvest, already marketed their
1918 wheat.
To Give Stimulated Iteturn
"It Is the desire and Intention of all
departments of the Administration to
give to the wheat growers a fair and
stimulative return In order that the
present acreage In wheat may be main
tained, ,
"I find a great conflict of opinion
among various sections of the country as
to the price that should be named as1 a
minimum guarantee. It must be ob
vious to all, however, that the factors
which make for Increased or decreased
cost of production of next year's harvest
cannot be determined until the near ap
proach to the harvest,
"In giving a guaranteed price for
wheat one year In advance (the only
Industry guaranteed by the Govern
ment), there Is involved a considerable
national risk. If there should be peace
or Increased shipping available before
the middle of 1920, Kurope will natu
rally supply Itself from the large stores
of much cheaper wheat now In the
southern hemisphere ; and therefore the
Government Is undertaking a risk which
might In such an event result In a na
tional loss of as much as 500,ooo,ooo
through an unsalable surplus ; or In any
event. In maintaining a high level of
price to our own people for a long
period subsequent to freedom In the
world's markets.
Aiiarea World of Dread
"Despite this, the desirability of as
suring a supply to the world of prime
breadatufTs by Insuring the farmer
against the fluctuations In prices that
would result from the uncertainties of
the present situation and from the spec
ulation those uncertainties entail secmB
to me to make the continuation of the
guarantee for another year desirable.
On the other hand. It Is clear that, be
fore Increasing this liability by large
sums, wth (he VlskB set forth above,
and before Increasing the burden of- the
consumer, the matter should be subject
ed to searching; Inquiry at the appro
priate time the. time when the pertinent
facts. will be known.
'"I feel' confident that with this pre
liminary fixed guarantee and with the
assurance that Justice will In any event
be done to the grower, he will continue
the fine patriotic effort by which he has
served the country hitherto ; that the
Government will have acted prudently',
and that the 'consumer will be satisfied
that his Interests are not unduly sac
rificed, but Just and exhaustive consid
eration 'given to every element of the
matter at the proper time."
The Joint agricultural advisory com
mittee of the food administration and
the Department of Agriculture, com
posed of farmers throughout the coun
try, presided over by former Governor
H. C. Stuart, 'of Virginia, recently de
cided to recommend the fixing of the
minimum price for the 1919 crop at
2.46, one cent above the price con
tained in the agricultural appropriation
bill, which caused Its veto.
If the President had accented the ad.
vlso'ry .committee's suggested price of
t2.4c.st Chicago, wheat would 'hve
