MORRISON MAKES MILITANT SPEECH Quotes Labor as Opposed to Peace at Any Price Bloomington, Ill., Sept. 7.—Secre- tary Frank Morrison of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor in a Labor Day spsech here yesterday indorsed the so-called staff report of the in- dustrial relations commission with its drastic findings on industrial and social conditions. “ A contented and efficient citizen- ship ecalls for a minimum wage that will support wage earners in genuine comfort,” declared Morrison. He continued: “In discussing militarism and pre- paredness, let it be understood that the labor movement is not in favor of peace at any price. Our strikes indicate there ic a point in the lives of trade unionists where they gird their loins for battle rather than longer accept unbearable condi- tions. fi “Strikes indicate 1life, vigor and strength. Power to make effective protests against wrong should be en- couraged. A nation’s workers who do not-possess this power can be of little service to their country in its hour of need. Militarism and Preparedness. “While militarism and prepared- ness are as opposite as the poles, let it be understood that labor is alert to the kind of preparedness the steel trust, the coal barons, the railroad combines and allled interests favor.
