THE WAR TO FINISH
Workers Here Not Only Talk
Freedom, But Have

LONDON, Sept. lo.-A1nertca's delay

LONDON, Sept. lo.-Anertca's delay
In entering the war was defended by
Samuel Gompers, head Of tho American
Federation Of Labor, In an address AT
the American Luncheon Club today.
MI Gompers said he was one Of those
who wcrc impatient during tho period
while America was maintaining neutral
ity, but that be had found that 1.-THE
wisdom of the President Of the United
States far outbalanced the Judgment OF
all else"
Mr.. Gompers pledged American labor
to stick through the war to victorious
end. Tho American workers, he declar-
cd, had no illusions regarding the con-
dict They knew what the United
States and the allies were fighting Tor.
Tho workers Of America did not only
talk freedom, Mr. Gompers pointed out,
but thcy had lived It. he had visited
Germany several times, he added, and
had never heard moro tunos sung to
freedom In any other country. But he
SAID, "mouth;1g It and practicing It are
two different things"
MIR. Gompers declared that only mon
who were willing to mako sacrthces,
supreme sacrifices, knew what. freedom
or liberty meant. he quoted the
phrase, "etornal vigilance Is the price
of liberty" end added that men who
were unwilling to fight for liberty were
undeservtnG of It.
AS far rs England, France, italy and
the United States were concerned, the
speaker declared, their arming for war
was not nIlitarls1n, but It was case
OF their civilian populations getting Into
uniform to dofend tho righfs of civiltza-
tion. They were uniformed SO that
they might distinguish between their
friends and tho enemy.
Mr.. Gornpers said that he had appeal
ed to his fellow workers in Great Brit
ain to do their job. They had done
wonderfully, but, he added, this WAS .
time that tried mems souls, and It WAS
tho bounden duty Of all to insure. that
tho war should not be lost or success In
1t endangered.
