legal mechanism TO bring enough
pressure to bear that their cause
will be heard Labor is the basis
of everything that is good and
kind.
Long after your monetary sys-
tenn has become sntlquated and
passed from this earth, labor will
be the dominant factor until the
heaven and earth shall pass away
Hence laborers. throughout the
length and breadth Of this nation
should have one citizenship and
speak one language.
This is a day Of organization.
All groups cleave or unite accord

cations can be active and on the

is any different from the rest?

we must exercise our political

All minority groups as nearly
as possible should be together on
any far-reaching political issue,
and the basis Of this unity is
again on the side Of the honor
and respect OF labor No group
is self-suificient within itself poll
tlcally All should purge them
selves Of their personal likes and
dislige and work for the good Of
the whole.
The reason the Negro minority
does not get ahead very rapidly
is because they fail TO vote and
in far too many cases. they vote
for the man and not the issues.
Principles OF government is great

Finally in closing let me leave
this thought with you. If we read
