Federation of Labor and chairman of
 the Alliance for Labor and Democracy
 which opened its national conference
 here today. outlined the purpose of the organization as assemblying for
 the support of the government all the moral and material power of the work
 ing class of the nation"
 Tt shall be our task" he said, ito l interpret Americas democratic spirit
 and purpose in this conflict to our fel-
 low workers, especially those of
 form of propaganda which tends to
 weaken the loyalty and devotion of the masses and their willingness to strive and sacrifice for the nation and its high purpose"
 The declaration of principles as an- nounced by MT Gompers in part fol- lows:
 As believers in the great and splendid vision of democracy and in ternationalism, the fraternalism and solidarity of all peoples, we assert our unqualified loyalty to the United States of America and our determina- tion to do all that lies in our power to win the war.
 Qisloyalty to America in this crisis is disloyalty to the cause of freedom, democracy and internationalism.
 No national selfishness impelled this republic to enter the war. The impelling motives was the consuming idealism, born with the establishment of this republic to preserve freedom not only for itself but for all nations, great and small, and the body of in- ternational law which all free demo- cratic nations of the world respect and observe and only the brutal auto cracies seek to dishonor and destroy. In such a conflict real standard-bear- CTS of democracy and true nationalists can have no hesitation in supporting our republic which has made its own the cause and interests of all free peo- ples. It is therefore in truth not a capitalists war; but free mems war Fully impressed by these facts, realiz- ing noble internationalism is implicit in our American conception of nation al existence, we shall strip the mask from those who in the democracy, anti-militarism, and peace are engag- ed in the nefarious propaganda of treachery to all that these noble words represent. We indignantly repudiate the claim that this propaganda-which brings joy and comfort to German autocracy-has the support of the labor movement in America.
 Democracy will not be served by the victory of autocracy, by letting the declaration of independence be SUD- planted by the kaiser's fiat.
 ''Militarism will not be checked by surrender to the power which has organized all the resources of civiliza- tion to the end of imposing it's brutal iron rule on the world.
 Peace will not be secured to the world through the subjection of the free and democratic nations.
 Let us make our beloved republic i; strong and victorious for the sake of and thus insure for our chill dren the priceless heritage of liberty and democracy. Let us, at the same time, stand shoulder to shoulder in the fight against the foes of democracy | within our own borders, resolved ! never to rest until the goal of demo- political and inter- natfonal-has been attained" c
