riotic duty, the war could not have
been won, for it was only through the
combined, steady, sustained efforts Of
labor that fuel food and war sup

wage and win the combat.
Let US, therefore, on this Labor
Day turn our thoughts to what it all
means to America and the world
Let each working man tell himself the
story Of labor's record II will make
him a better and stronger union man
than he ever was before. Let each
man and woman in the labor move

union movement is founded, for those
principles are as sound as the rocks
Of the mountains.
"T'he labor movement stands for
all that is good and just and fair
in Industry. Because it stands for
these supreme ideals It should and
must have the heartlest support of
every man and woman who works.
Fortunate, indeed, are we. the mil
lions who are members Of labor un.

Day to boast our membership. on
this, labor's holiday, we show 10 the
world that the trade union move
mcnt retains It's virility. its strength.
it's aspirations and its sense of ctcr-
nal justice"
