This is Memorial Day, its fifty-first
observance. l was in Hartford. Con-
necticut az its first observance 81
years ago, and heard as orator, that
fine gentleman in politics" and brave
soldier, Maj. Gen. Joe" R. Hawley,
and it was my good fortune to be in
that city again last year and join in
the fiftieth celebration and assist in
the services in the same cemetery. 1t
is fact that for several years past the
day has become more and more a
mere holiday, the younger generation
feeling few of the emotions awakened
in the breasts of the old soldiers and
the women of their families, whose
memories 60 back to those patriotic
days and events. But if am not
greatly mistaken Memorial Day is to
be observed today with-a fervor, it has
not known for many years. And we
old soldiers heartily welcome our
young soldiers and rejoice in the per-
fectly American record. they have
made in Europe. Among all the Vic

far short of being great, al

My mind has been tuned up for this

and several members of his family.
He tells us how through the war

omcials of the Department of Labor
have characterized as "slanderous"
charges that the department has been
sending 'carpetbaggers" into the
south to interfere in industrial con-
ditions there. and to force men to join
the Federation Of Labor contrary to
their wishes. These remarks are at
tributed to John H. Kirby of Houston
Tex, president OF the National Lum

The department, through DR.. George
Y. Haynes. director of negro eco

of the department in the south in di-

no official reputation Of the charges
made by Mr.. Kirby would be forth

they would stand on the record of the
