By w. B. WILSON.

This Labor Day finds America at
the greatest crisis in history. The
nation is engaged in the greatest
war sthe world has ever seen, and
upon the results OF this war will de-
pend the fate of humanity for CEN
turies.
We have sent great army abroad
to cooperate with the armies of our
allies. Our navy is clearing the seas
of the German submarines. Our men
in tiue and khaki have won glory
by many heroic deeds; they hav,
helped to infict upon the foe a crush
ing defeat which, we hope, may prove
the turning point of the war.
But whether it does prove such
depends as much upon those who re-
main at home as upon those who go
abroad to fight. We have no fears
for our soldiers in France, provided
We .ln keep them we'll fed, we'll
clothed and properly equipped; they
have already shown themselves more
than the equal of the kaiser's best
troeps.
Upon this day, of all days, we must
consider seriously the problem before
us at home. We must maintain our
armies in the field at the top-notch
| fighting strength, an, we must sup
ply the needs of our allies and the
starving people of Belgium.
This is day on which labor must
consecrate itself to great task--the
task of winning the war. For this
tremendous duty hallway measures
will not suffice. There must be abso-
lutte loyalty and devotion to the ma
tons cause--these, believe. our
people have already shown beyond a
question. But more than this, there
must be a.clear understanding of the

Labor Day Message From
Secretary of Labor Wilson

great need, and a new determination
to crafty it.
Maximum production is the goal
for which we must strive. With every
workman giving his utmost strength
and will,power. we shall attain it. The
task will not be easy--nor the effort
small; but we have no choice. To
save all that we hold dear, we must
work, work, work for the boys in
France, and the allies. One phrase
sums it up: Work as you would
fight"
The coal miners are doing that
They have produced the greatest
amount of coal in history, despite the
heavy loss of men through enlistment.
Many records have been broken in
shipbuilding. Great industrial plants
are producing material for the army
at unprecedented speed. The Nash
vile powder plant, the greatest in the
world, was completed three months
ahead of time.
One workman made record by
driving 4,875 riyets in one day. Only
a short time afterward, the mark was
passed by another, who drove 5000.
Now we are told that workman has
driven 5000 rivets in one day. Such
deeds as these show the spirit that
animates Our people and have served
as examples to stimulate the whole
great body of Americans to nobler
tasks.
The glory of it all is that labor has
visualized the needs of our armies
and our peoples and its own relation
to those necessities. Labor accepts
that responsibility enthusiastically,
loyalty. With our splendid army on
the battlefields of Europe, reinforced
by an efficient industrial army in
America, nlilitarism is doomed to de-
feat. Democracy will be triumphant
ON earth.

countered recently, were afflicted
with that mysterious something
which caused them to crack when

A new variety of barrage was used
by the Americans. Prisoners char
acterized it as crazy fire.
Others solemnly declared that they
had been subjected to counter-bar-
rage by their own army, That did
occur in at least one instance, due
to the confusion in the German aerial
service.
Barrage Follows Barrage.
The Americans had their long
range guns ON line of targets, be-
ginning their barrage along line to
the rear of that. This barrage moved
on and in brief interval another bar
rage started at the same point. This
'barrage moved on and In a brief in
terval another barrage started at the
same point. When the first moving
line OF fire reached that of the long
range guns, they shifted and the triple
barrage was repeated.
Ordinarily when a creeping bar
rage passes, those under the FIRE feel
free to reappear. In this case they re-
appeared only to be subjected to an
other smothering fire. Il 8.
On the Americans left similar tao
tics were used, but the intervals were
longer, the American guns covering
exactly twice the ground, il measured
by the density of the FIRE.
The allies mastery OF the air in
this sector is unquestioned. In the
air at one time there were counted 80
allied planes. 1t was one OF those
rare opportunities for observation
work; the visibility was good and
squadron after squadron assembled.
With the observation planes went
combat planes few of which dis
appeared over the German lines to
take part in the actual fighting.
Occasionally a German plane chal-
lenged their presence but in every
case it was driven off. The allied
planes even prevented the Germans
from spotting for their own artillery
with any degree of efficiency. Not
one allied plane was brought down.
