NOT CAUSE OF CONDITIONS “Artificial Panic.” -New York, Dec, 18.—Samuel Gom- pers, president of the American Fed- " eration of Labor, has served notice upon all emgloyers that attempts to be made to. reduce any wages at this time will be fought to the utmost. He delivered his ultimatum in an address at a dinner of the Civic Federation at the Hotel Astor. “Since I have been in New York,” said Mr. Gompers, “I have been ap- proached a dozen times by bankers, financiers and capitalists in open con- versation, in written communications and whispers to the effect that wages must come down; that the laboring man must make up his mind to bear his share of the hard times. The his- tory of industry demonstrates that every time a reduction in wages, in. tended to meet such conditions as now exist, have only accentuated the situation and made matters worse. “So I say to employers, to bankers, lawyers, manufacturers, mine oper- ators, to all employers—that if they now attempt to reduce wages they will not have the easy sailing they had a few years ago, for the Amer- fcan workingman has come to the con- clusion that the financial situation is not due to any fault on the part of the working people. They have made up their minds that they are not go- ing to be the chief sufferers because of an artificial panic or one caused by -the blunders of those who have charge of the finances of the country 2 BATTLESHIP NORTH DAKOTA Work Begun on Uncle Sam’s Greatest Warship, Quincy, Mass., Dec. 18.—At the mo- ment the guns of Admiral Evans’ fleet were roaring out their farewell salute at Fortress Monroe the first keel plate of the great battleship North Dakota, the largest battleship in the world with the exception of her sister ship, the Delaware, was laid in the yards of the Fore River Shipbuilding company here.
