CHURCHES AND LABOR +.
WILL OBSERVE
LABOR SUNDAY
(By the Rev. Charles Stelzle)

The Protestant churches through
out the United States affiliated with
the Federal Council of the Churches
of Christ in America which repre-
sents one hundred and forty thou
sand individual churches, have been
asked by the Federal Council and the
American Federation of Labor to
celebrate Labor Sunday on Septem-
Der second.
Labor Sunday has grown to be an
important anniversary in an in
creasingly large number of churches.
This year, as no other heretofore
there is need for its careful and
conscientious observance.
The fact that our country is at
war, the need that rests upon us to
conserve every engery, the response
bility that we have as an industrial
nation to serve the interests of
mankind, all demand that we leave
no effort untried which might make
US a more efficient nation.
If we are to have a world-democ-
racy such as we believe is inherent
in the spirit of the kingdom which
we pray to have come on this earth,
it is necessary to do as much as pos
sible to hasten the development of
an industrial democracy which shall
be dominated by the same Christian
principles which we desire to see in
control of the whole new social Or
der.
AS has been its custom during pre-
vious years the Federal Council has
prepared a special message for La
hor Sunday. The message for this
year relates especially to war con-
ditions.
The observance of Labor Sunday
by the trade unionists of America
was recommended at convention
of the American Federation of La
Dor, the churches being requested to
devote part of the day to the pre-

FOOD SAVING is
FIRST MEASURE
IN MAKING WAR

Day by day we come into fuller
realization of the fact that we are
at war. Our industries are being
changed from peace to war needs.
Hundreds of thousands of workers all
over the country find the war enter
ing into their daily lives through
changes in occupation.
Food saving was the first great
war measure to touch every Ameri-
car home. Many Americans do not
yet realize how necessary this econ
omy is. They continue their old
schemes of liberal living in the be-
lief that others will do the saving,
they excuse themselves from this ma
stional service because they see 9TH
ers who are still wasting. But the
necessity for economy in food is the
most definite thing about the war.
There is just so much food in the
world, there is not enough to go
around among the allied nations We
have the balance of food. Other
nations are helping us fight the bat
tie for democracy. We must share
our food with them. 1t would be
possible to write reams of advice and
suggestions from this text, but there
is really nothing more to be added to
it. Those are the plain facts. Those
are the reasons for economizing.

sentation of the problems of work
ingmen. 1t was further resolved
that the various central and local
labor bodies be requested to coop
crate in every legitimate way with
the ministers who would thus OBJ
serve Labor Sunday, seeking with
them to secure as large an audi
ence of workingmen and others as
possible.

STATEMENT ABOUT STRIKES IN
MONTANA AND ARIZONA MINES

of the international of the American
Federation of Labor will be able to
find an excuse for contributing to
their appeal.
The International Union of Mine,
Mill and Smelter Workers, having
jurisdiction over the miners in Butte,
Montana, is chartered by the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, as there
is local in Butte, Montana, to
which all underground workers who
desire to attach themselves to a
iona tide organization can become
members, moral or financial support
given to the above described dual or
CARNATIONS is donated to prevent
and destroy bona fide organization
of the American Federation of La
Dor.
The answer of the men and wo-
men of the bona fide unions to this
appeal should not be. in dollars, but
in ringing rebuke and a warning to
those who make the appeal that if
they expect assistance from the bona
fide labor movement they must take
their place in its ranks and prove
they are worthy of it's support.
Arizona
The situation at Globe and Miami,
Arizona, is practically the same. Lo-
Gals No. 60 and No. 70 of the In
ternational Union of Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers have been estab-
lished in those camps for many years.
On July 2, 1917, after every honor
able effort to secure conference
with the operators to discuss their
just demands, these unions acting
jointly with all craft unions, put into
effect a referendum vote to strike,
but the day preceding the l. w. w.
who, through their usal tactics had
secured small following, without
presenting demands or asking for
conference, called strike and now
ask bona fide labor for financial sup
port.
The purpose should be plain to all
members of the American Federation
of Labor. They should know what
the effect would be should their
union call strike and dual or
ganization call strike at the same
time and present different demands.
The only possible results can be
confusion, the ultimate aim destruc-
ton. We want to. warn all or
gained labor not to be deceived by
the contemplate falsehoods of this
movement which claims that it is
independent and cooperating with
the International, for such stories are
only told to fitch legitimate unions
out of their treasures, and your
own funds are then used to bring
about your destruction.
This is the well-known policy of
the l. w. W., which is being carried
out to letter in Butte, Globe and
Miami.
The striking miners of Globe and
Miami of the International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers of
the A. F. of L. are fighting for
the recognition of bona fide union
ism. The metal mine workers"
of the l. w. W., so-called, are striv-
ing for it's destruction.
We will leave it to you which
one is worthy of your support.

ing Of school on Monday were being
made today at the Franklin School

school divisions were in conference
with their teachers during the best
part OF the day.
During the past two or three days.

The manicure outfits have been

One OF the insistent demands Of

the men who do the baking must
not mix dirt and dough and must
look to their finger nails before
they knead the bread. For this
purpose orange sticks and simple
manicure equipment are provided.

fortresses, held by great masses of
constantly REINFORCED Austro-Hun-
garian troops. the Italians have COM
pleted their conquest Of Monte San
Gabrielle, thus removing all danger
of an Austro-Hungarian offensive in
this sector.

this great mountain fortress, but by
the use Of fresh troops hurried to the
scene from Roumania the Austro-
Hungarians were able to re-take it,

open the roadway to Laibach. the
chief Austro-Hungarian base and the
key to the heart Of Austria, a battle

These twin mountains, both of
which the Austro-Hungarians had
transformed into supposedly impreg-
nable fortresses. stand northeast Of
and flank the southern fringe
of the Bainsixza plateau.
San Gabrielle dominates the access
to Friuli and eliminates the Austro-
Hungarian menace to the Frigidio
valley and the GoriEia plain.
The fighting around these noun
tains has been marked by the utmost

AT TREASURY DIES
ONFIRST VACATION
W. A. F. EKENGREN,

The funeral OF Mrs. Nettie Eichel-
berger, Treasury Department matron.
and mother" to hundreds of women
employees of the department, was held
at o'clock this afternoon at the
residence, 713 D street southeast.
Mrs. Eichelberger died while on the
first vacation she had taken in seven
teen ,ears as a Government employe.
and on the day that she was 20 have
received promotion to the clerical
grade.
As a mark OF the esteem in which
she was held, six department officials
acted as pallbeare=s, and scores Of de-
partment workers attended.
Mrs. Eichelberger was stricken at
the summer home Of Mrs Charles c.
Hamlin, at Mattapoisett. Mass. where
Mrs. Hamlin had taken her as a guest
on her first vacation two weeks ago.
She died Wednesday after an opera
ton necessitated by an intestinal
trouble incident to her age. She
leaves a son, Frank, twenty-five
years old. who was the third man in
the District to enlist in the navy, and
a daughter Lily.
Started as CharwOmRn.
Mrs. Eichelberger, a widow, was ap-
pointed a charwoman in the Treasury
in 1900, at the age OF thirty-three.
She soon became superintendent OF
the force in charge Of the women's
retiring rooms, and in 1910 became
superintendent OF the Red Cross and
., Al

berger had never missed a day in re
porting at six o'clock in the morning.

When Mrs. Hamlin insisted upon
taking Mrs. Eichelberger to her home
at Mattapoisett for a vacation, II took
all her persuasive powers, as well as
those OF Mrs. McAdoo and Mrs. New
ton to accomplish II. Two days after
reaching Mattapoisett Mrs. Eichel-
berger became i'll. Mrs. Hamlin's
physician said that her condition was
so critical that she could not be
moved and an operating table and
appliances, and two skilled surgeons
were summoned from Boston.
Had Hopes of Recovery.
The operation was performed and
for several days It was believed that
Mrs. Eichelberger would recover.
In the meantime, Chief Clerk Will
meth, Of the Treasury Department
had prepared a recommendation for
an executive order promoting Mrs.
Eichelberger to the clerical grade
with an increase of pay in recogni-
tion OF her services and efficiency
in the department. This was approved
by Assistant Secretary Newton and
the Secretary.
Pallbearers at the funeral this af-
ternoon were Z. II. Jemison, super
intendent Of the Treasury building;
S. H. Marks, assistant chief clerk,
Charles Fisher, C. A. Fenner, F. A
Hornig, and DR.. Charles Clark.
