tear down the American standards OF
free labor which have been established
in the last 60 years.
american workers. he continued,
"have many times exceeded the most
optimistic advance estimates of war
equipment for this year. The subsidized
press has poisoned the public's mind
and tried to place the blame for all
delays in our war effort on the skilled

THE American Federation of Labor
has joined with no foreign organiza-
lions except those of our allies, the
labor unions in Great Britain and
Canada, while certain large corpora
tons of this country have formed sub

Germany, thereby sabotaging our war
effort by preventing our government
from using American and other inven-

Ornburn told of the tremendous war
production efforts of American workers
and said they are now making this
country the greatest arsenal in all the
world" He mentioned the big scale
buying of war stamps and bonds by
AFL members and unions and said
that if substantially AL the so-called
