PROCLAMATION OF LABOR DAY
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT STATE OF ARIZONA.

Following the custom which sets aside the first Monday of each September, as day upon which Labor may be commemor- ated by means of paradeS, meet inRs, festivals and other mani festations of respect and honor to it's dignity and accomplish ments for the benefit and ad- yancement of mankind:
 I, Thomas E. Campbell, Gov ernor of Arizona, under the au- thority in me thus rePosed, do hereby declare and proclaim as a legal holiday, Monday, Sept ember the third, nineteen seven teen, to be duly celebrated as aforetime.
 In this most critical hour in the history of the United States and the civilized world, the hopes and fears of humanity center inevitably upon the at titude of the forces of Labor to ward the achievement of that highest standard of efficiency, without which Victory is inn possible.
 Therefore, this day affords a most fitting and timely oppor- tunity to take stock of the re- sources of brain and hand, to consider unselfishly how best we can substantially evidence our unfailing support to those who will, at that very time, be mo- bilized to do battle for those principles of liberty, equality and fraternity which have bless ed American Labor and borne it upward to it's present mighty status.
 Arizona's responsibility to do her part in the present exigency lies equally upon every member of our citizenship. Shall we not bury such differences as molest our present industrial progress, upon which so vitally depends the success of the conflict, strain ing our every nerve and sinew. without thought of self. profit or propaganda, until we shall have won that to which we world wide democracy.
 In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caus- ed the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed.
 Done at Phoenix, the Capital. this 27th day of August, A. D., 1917.
