PRESIDENT APPEALS FOR COOPERATION LABOR
WAR STARTED BY GERMANY SAYS WILSON
 
CBy Associated Press)

BUFFALO, Nov. 12-Pres- ident Wilson made a personal and eloquent appeal for the full support of organized labor for the governmnet in the con duct of the war, speaking be- fore the annual convention of the American Federation of Labor. He declared that the war could not be won unless all factions in a common cause would unite in sinking their differences. The President paid a warm tribute to Samuel Gompers and virtually called upon the Federation to give hi mits united support. He denounced the Pacificist cri- ties and appealed for cooper otion, and said the present time was more critical than the world had ever known.
 Gompcrs introduced Presi- dent Wilson and offered him as spokesman for freedom, a man of destiny and a leader of thought aud action among na- lions. Wilson declared fiatly that Germany started the war and said he was willing to a. wait histOry's verdict on that statement. He said the war was the last decisive issue be- tween old principles of power and new principles of freedom. lie said be believed the spirit of freedom can get into the hearts of Germans and find a fine welcome there, but the spirit of freedom doesn't suit the pro-German's plans; that power cannot bo used with Concentrated force against a free peoples if ii is used by free peoples.
 Wilson referred to Ger many's map of Europe. He said that if she can keep her power, she can disturb the world, declaring that Germany now controlled Austria, Fur key, the Balkans and Asia Minor.
