ing hours after the war would be
accepted without a bitter fight by

He read a statement inspired by
recent public utterance of William
H. Barr, president Of the National
Moulders' association, that a reduc-
tion of wages and longer hours of
work would be the only means to
enable American manufacturers to
contoinue to cope with foreign in
dutries after the war
"Notice is given here and now,"
Mr.. Gompers said, chat the Ameri-
can people will not be forced back
to pre-war conditions by either Mr..
Barr, his association or all the
bourbons in the United States"
The America labor movement
whole-heartedly slppored this world

"The American labor movement
will cooperate with all other agen-

stroy but to construct. And it may
as we'll be understood now as at any
other time that the advantage which
the workers of America and of the
allied countries have gained and
which we hope to extend to other
peoples, even of the conquered coun-

away from US. And we will resist

On June %. 1914, Archduke
Francis Ferdinand of Austria and
his morganatic wife, the Duchess Of
HohenbuTg, were assassinated by
haIf-craZed 19-year-old Serbian
student, one GavriIo PrinZep, while
the heir to the Austrian throne
was on an official visit to the town
of Serajevo, Bosnia. Whether Prin-
yep was acting on his own initia-
tive or whether his crime was the
result of d plot has never been fully
established. It is declared by the
central powers that the double
murder was plotted in Serbia On
the other hand, there is a wide
spread belief in allied countries
that the plot was hatched in Ger
many, in order to give the kaiser
an excuse for commencing his war
OF conquest.
In any event the murder OF the
archduke and his wife was made
the excuse for an uItimatum from
Austria to Serbia on July 3, which

plicity in the murder of Archduke
Francis Ferdinand; that Serbia
take action against two specified
officials, who were accused OF COM
plicity in the crime at Serajevo; !;
that Serbia take effective measures
to stop the smuggling of arms and
ammunition across the border; and
finally that Serbia give explanation
of the expressions of hostility to-
ward Austria-Hungary on the part
of certain high Serbian officials.
Serbia Bows to Austria.
Illuminating and unjust though
the demands undoubtedly were,
Serbia in her reply acceded to them
all except two. To the demand that
Serbia accept the collaboration of
agents of the Austrian government
in the suppression of the subsersfve
movement directed against the ter
ritorial integrity of the dual Sion-
archy. Serbia replied that she did
not understand exactly the mean
ing of the demand, but that she
was ready to accept such collabo-
ration as should conform to the
Pl Va anu
criminal procedure The demand
made by Austria that Austrian Of
fcials be permitted to take part in
the investigation relating to the ju-
dicial proceedings in Serbia against
persons involved in the Sera1evo
crime, the Serbian government
would not concede on the ground
that such action would violate the
Serbian constitution.
No one now believes that Austria
wished Serbia to accept all her
terms, or expected her to. Austria
was deaf TO the appeals of Great
Britain and Russia and declared
war on Serbia on July 2S During
the next few days Germany decIar-
ed war on Russia, Serbia's protec-
tor, and France, and the conflict
was on.
AS to the murderer of the arch
duke, he was not executed, but
placed in an Austrian prison, where
he died OF consumption last year.
