Mr. Lewis' message follows: “Labor day this year undoubtedly ‘Haw & deeper significance for the members of the organized labor move- ment than in any other year since Labor day was instituted. We are all painfully aware of the terrible busi- ness and industrial depression through which not only the people of America but of the world are now passing.

Without the benefit of a compact body of organized workers in America, fully determined to do their patriotic duty, the war could not have been won, for it was only through the combined, steady, sus- tained efforts of labor that fuel, food and war supplies were produced with which to wage and win the combat. Praises Labor Movement. “Let us, therefore, on this Labor day turn our thoughts to what it all means to America and the world. Let each working man tell himself the story of labor's record. It will make him a better and stronger union man then he ever was before. Let each man and woman in the labor move- ment recall to mind the fundamental principles upon which the labor union movement is founded, for those prin- ciples are as sound as the rocks of the mountains and as fundamental as the air we breathe. “The labor movement stands for all that is good and just and fair in in- supreme ideals, it should and must have the heartiest support of every man and woman who works. Fortu- nate, indeed, are we, the millions who are members of labor unions, that we are able on this Labor day to boast our membership. On this, Labor's hol- iday, we show to the world that the trade union movement retains its virility, its strength, its aspirations and its sense of eternal justice.” STAY IDLE AS PROTEST.
