John Mitchell. their purpose.
This changed public opinion has been
gradual through constant agitation,
education and organization, but it has
been quickened the past two years be-
cause of organized labor's prompt ac-
ceptance of autocracy's challenge
against democratic ideals.
Organized labor has not depended
upon words to prove it's patriotism. It's
whole-hearted support of the govern
ment in the crisis Of war should be
sufficient answer to any query on this
subject. This support was of the kind
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 Ameri-
can citizen worthy of the name.
Organized labor distinguishes be-
tween a government that rests on the
whim of one man or a small group of
men and a government of, by and for
the people.
Our 1919 Labor day celebration fea-
lures this difference between the two
systems of government which recently
struggled for mastery. The thought
behind these systems is older than any
nation. In truth, nations are but an in
Cident, but q process, in this struggle
of human liberty and advancement
versus the ancient theory of govern
ment so well illustrated by German
junkerdom.
Organized labor is not a peace move
ment. While we long for the day of
Industrial concord, when disputes be-
tween capitalists and laborers will not
longer feature our industrial life, we
refuse to paralyZe our movement by
surrendering the right to strike against
wrong when other methods fail.
