A special plea has been sent to all

sent out an appeal urging all union
men to participate.
pursuant to instructions given me

union in Duluth is urged to partic-
ipate in the Armistic day parade to
be held Friday, Nov. II, starting from
courthouse square at 2 p. m. A union
labor division headed by the Feder-
ated Trades assembly will be formed.
1T is realized that the time is
short, and officers of local unions are
hereby requested to call special meet
ings Of their organizations or their
executive committees for the purpose
Of making arrangements to appear in
the parade. Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent Of the A. f. Of l.: has urged upon
every organization to turn out on
Armistic day. Every union should
be in line with it's banner and the
American flag.
Labor Is for Peace.
american labor is for peace. We
were solidly behind our government
in the late World war because We
hoped that the destruction OF Rrus-
sian n1ilitarism would spell the end
of war for all time. "Thls Is a war
to end war; was the slogan that fired
our enthusiasm.
president Harding has called q.
conference Of the nations at Wash
ington to discuss the limitation OF
ornaments. 1t will open its sessions
on Armistic day. It was at first
feared that the representatives Of the
nations would merely discuss world
problems and adjourn without COM
ing to any agreement as to the re-
duction or limitation of ar1naments.
President Gompers thereupon ap-
pealed to the workers of America,
| and to all the people, to hold demon
| strations on Armistice day and ia
send resolutions to the conference
urging that definite action be taken
| to render war in the future less like
1y.
