ficent laws the enactment of which
is secured through the efforts of or
ganized labor, affect alike the organ
lied and unorganized; those who stand
shoulder to shoulder with their fell
lows and those who travel their own
road careless of whether it parallels
the pathway of their fellow workers.
Some of the labor organizations
have abandoned regular labor demon
strations, parades, meetings, ad-
dresses, in the belief that such ex-
penditure of time, effort and money
is wasteful This is serious mis-
take. Men and women marching
shoulder to shoulder typify impress
lively the purposes and unity of the
labor movement. Such parades are
an educational avenue by which public
thought and opinion may be more
forcefully directed to the considera-
tion of the aspirations, hopes and
principles of the labor movement.
1t must not be forgotten that no
human movement remains stationary.
The labor movement must either go
forward, or it must lag backward. The
spirit of fellowship is the life of the
labor movement. All life must be
nourished, or it dies. The yearly gath
ering on Labor Day, the contact of
worker with worker, the enthusiasm
of all working together in demon
stration of the power and might of
labor as a civic as we'll as an economic
force, stimulates fellowship, brother
hood, good will; renews inspiration;
gives deeper insight into the mean
ing and scope of the labor movement.
1t is my earnest hope that in every
CITY. town and hamlet in our broad
land, Labor Day, 1926, will be an
epoch making day, one long to be re-
membered.

GREEN AND LABOR DAY

President William Green believes
Labor Day ought TO be observed as
Labor Day, and not just like any other
holiday. He believes this day should
be particularly day for labor, that
celebrations should have outstanding
labor characteristics.
What President Green believes is
that Labor Day is something greater
and deeper and more sincere than
mere merry-making time. 1t is
more serious than a roller coaster day.
Says President Green:
Do the men and women of labor
intend that Labor Day be observed as
mere holiday or used for personal
convenience, or have they considered
or are they considering how best they
may make it enthusiastically demon
strative of labor's unity, labor's soli-
darity, labor's hopes, aims, purposes.
achievements?
Labor Day belongs to the working
people of America. 1t is for the men
and women of labor to demonstrate
year after year its value and signifi-
cance. Those outside the labor move
ment are prone to a considerable de-
gree to test it's strength and virility
by the way in which Labor Day is
observed. Labor Day was made ma
tional institution by the workers who
preceded you. You owe it to them and
to the future to do your part in per-
petuating this institution by appro-
pirate celebration.
The first Monday of September of
each year the factory whistles are
silent, the mining shafts are closed
down, the blacksmith's anvil is cold,
the machinist's lathe is quiet-labor
takes holiday. And not only organ
lied labor but all labor, for the bene-
