LABOR DAY MESSAGE
Secretary-T Treasurer,
BY JOHN j. MANNING
Union Label Trades Department, A. F. of

LABOR DAY! The very mention
of enthuses and inspires every loyal
trade unionist.
1t is the day on which all members
of organized labor proudly take part
in any demonstration staged in the
various cities. Young and old, men
and women, apprentice and journey
man, vie with each other to fittingly
celebrate the day.
Trade unionists have every right to
their enthusiasm and veneration for
Labor Day, because labor contributes
more than its share in making the
wheels of society run smoothly.
Our undaunted predecessors, real
izing how much depended on labor,
and being irked by long hours and
small wages, banded themselves to-
gether to make conditions more bear
able and recompense more adequate.
To their intelligence and courage,
we owe our strong and mighty and
uncomfortable labor organizations OF
today. These craft organizations
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1930-08-29

must be maintained and strengthened
all the time because opposing forces
would quickly take advantage of any
laxity on our part to destroy the
American labor movement.
Only by the strength of our unity
can we maintain our working and liv-
ing conditions secured by organiza-
tion.
Labor Day reminds the members
of organized labor that they are
brothers in the true sense of the
word. Labor Day stresses the fact
that all union members must help
each other by spending union-earned
money for union-labeled products and
union services of all kinds.
Without patronizing the union
label, shop card and working button
throughout the year, celebrating on
Labor Day becomes a mockery and a
sham.
Make every day In the year Label
Day, and then Labor Day will be
truly and gloriously celebrated.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1930-08-29

They are the greater opportunities
open to the average man. They are
the broader and happier outlook upon
existence. They are the better free
public schools. They are the human
itarian laws on the statute books.
They are the improved working con-
di.ions and shorter hours for wage
earners. They are almost countless,
these union labels of ours.
Group them all together, all that
they stand for and all that they re-
fect, and there you will have union
label of greater luster than you have
ever beheld before. Across its face
will be written two words of tran
scendant Importance. These words
are good citizenship" Many bene-
fits will be derived if preference is
given to products bearing the union
label not only by members of organ
lied labor, but by that element Of
society which sympathizes with hu-

BENEFITS OF TRADE
UNIONISM APPEAR
in MANY FORMS

Organized labor is inclined to stress
the Importance of its label, and it
is proper that it should. Wherever
the little label appears it is a guar
antee that no iron heel has ground
under foot those who toiled with their
hands to produce the thing upon
which it is imprinted.
But there are other union labor
labels; you see them everywhere but
You are prone to pass them by with
out due credit and appreciation.
These labels are the comfortable
homes of laboring men-homes in
which there are healthful living CON
ditions and rosy-cheeked children,

is life because workers give their lives and their
minds when they work with their hands. Because of
the deep appreciation of the Importance value of
labor and service the trade unions constantly
endeavorng to elevate the standards of life and living
They seek to make life worth while; to create oppor
tunites for development of the body and mind to
regulate the hours OF labor that all may enjoy lei
and surcease from exacting toll The ultimate
objective of labor is the realization and enjoyment of
higher and better life
This high and noble purpose cannot be realized
except through the power and influence OF collective
action The aims of labor noble and its motives
lofty to invite and the support of all
those who believe that it is the inalienabe right of
oy life liberty and the pursuit of hapDness

manitarian advancements. More
schools, more homes, shorter work
days, better wages, and better citi-
zenship will surely materialize
through the increased consumption of
nnion-labeled products.

open to argument proved by the history OF the day
AT meeting of the Central Labor union of New
York city March s, 1882, Mr. Mcclure proposed that
day be set aside and designated Labor day for
general holiday for the working classes Other holi-
days represented the religious, POLITICAL civil and mill
tary spirit Of the people, but there none to repre-
sent the industrial spirit, he argued.
The first Monday in September selected to fill
the wide gap between the Fourth of July and Thanks
giving day. and the first Labor day parade held
September 3, 1882 in New York by the Central
Labor union, with 10000 persons taking part in the
parade. and 10000 in the picnic which followed.
Two years later the project was taken up by the
Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions of
the United States and Canada and later by state leg
latures. The day is legal holiday In every state bl
