TO LABORERS
Gompers Urges Working Men to Re-
member Pledge of Loyalty.

New York, April 6.-Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor has issued an appeal
for workingmen to uphold the action
of the labor conference March -
which declared loyalty in the emer-
gency with Germany. Commenting on
this action, he said:
THE greatest problem is always to
secure the cooperation of all those
whose work is necessary to national
defense. For defense our nation must
rely on it's mechanics and metal work
ers, upon those who dig bitches, who
produce the materials of war, upon
those whose hands are on the throttles
and levers of transportation, who con-
meet the arteries of communication.
Those workers have become free. They
no longer can be told come here; go
there
Mr. Gompers said that the construc-
tive institutions and ideals built up in
time of peace were swept away when
the war began in Europe.

MARTIN SANCTIONS SCHEME

The students of Washburn college
will do their share in making up IN
Gle Sans first gun line in the war
against Germany Following patriotic
activities among the students at the
college this week, plans were TO-DAY
being perfected to form an artillery
platoon to be assigned to Battery A.
the Topeka field artillery Between
thirty and forty students, it was learn
ed from Lieutenant G. G. Lul today,
have already taken and passed the
military examination. Monday, on
their return from the Easter vaca-
ton. the Washburn men will go to the
armory in a body and offer their ser
vices to Captain w. p. Mclean BY
that time they expect to number sixty
men, enough to fill a platoon of two
guns-half an ordinary battery-to
war strength.
The plan as announced by the
Washburn men can be carried out,
according to Gen. G. l. Martin The
Washburn platoon will technically not
be a part of the battery, but will sim
ply be assigned to it under the COM
mand of Captain Mclean. Under such
an arrangement the college forces
would not lose their identity and would
have the advantage of going with a
trained orga nization, one that proved
itself the crack unit on the border
last summer, the regular artillery not
excepted.
Big Addition to Battery.
Assignment of the Washburn pla-
toon to the battery will add greatly
to the strength of the unit When the
college volunteers and their equipment
are added Battery A will comprise six
three-inch light field guns and con-
siderably more than 200 men. Four
gums now comprise the Organiza ton.
MAJ. r. n Rain said today that there
is sufficient equipment in the quar-
termaster's department to fit out the
platoon with the exception of the guns.
Until the two field pieces are obtained
the Washburn men will use the pres
Gnu equipment of Battery A for drill
ing.
p 1T was said today that the Wash
burn platoon will be made up from
practically every branch of the col
lege. including the law school. Among
those active in whipping the students
together, following assertions they ex-
pected to enlist are James Perry
and Jay McCOsh star football men

ITALY WANTS PEACE?

There seems to be no authentic

rather seem to be the results of

Yet the popular insistence on cheap
