Secretary American Federation o.

When the comparatively few
trade-uuionists OF our various
communities paraded on Labor
dav, > years ago, their motives
were questioned in many in
stances and newspapers gave them
scant publicity.
This year, when the hosts Of or
ganized labor, now numbering
100000 members. march in their
Win the War" parades they VIII
be acclaimed by those who for
merly even denied their purpose.
This changed public opinion has
been gradual through constan:
agitation. education, and organiZa-
ton, but it has been quicEened the
past year because of organized
Iabor's prompt acceptance OF
autocracy's challenge against dem
ocratic ideals.
Organized labor has not de-
pended upon words to prove its
patriotism. Its whole-hearted sup
port Of the government in the
present crisis should be sufficient

that BELTS men and women imbued
with our republics ideals, and who
realize that when q government
that IS founded on these ideals
falls. the loss is an individual one
for every American citizen worthy
Of the name.
Organized labor distinguishes be

the Rosenthal murder case. who spoke
the words. and the audience was a
packed house OF the soldiers here, the
biggest crowd that has thronged' the
\. N. c. A. hut at the camp for some
time. Rose talked OF his experiences
as a gambler. He told OF the methods
used by gamblers, and he warned the
soldiers ~ they played a gambling
game to win they had lost before they
began
Don't get It into your heads that
you must gamble to be a real soldier"
he said, and don't let any OF the older
boys lead you 'on with any belief OF
that kind. You can be the best kind
OF a soldier by leaving cards. dice and
such things alone. The Kaiser can and
will be beaten. but not by gambling
never. It just can't be done. a
Considerable regret was caused in
camp by the resignation OF Major Joel

account OF in health. On leaving the
regiment Major Spisears gave Col NJ.

given TO the most efficient companies
