Seattle’s Business and Lee H. Wakefield BSENOPED eP akon a> we UE if THE SEATTLE STAR- — Workers-Get Back of UncleSam Put Your Soul Into Thelight Liberty Do your BEST, boys—do your BEST! Get in every honest wallop that you CAN—on the JOB! Think—what it would MEAN, if the GUNS should FAIL for the lack of SHELLS! The PRICE would stagger HUMANITY! This is a war of men and FORCES, the like of which was never before known since man came upon the earth! It isa war of IRON, COPPER and COAL—of LUMBER, LEAD and ZINC—of LEATHER, CHEMICALS and CON- CRETE—of OIL, WOOL and WHEAT — of AEROPLANES,. GUNS and SHIPS — of SHELLS, AUTO-TRUCKS and AUTOMOBILES — of RUB- BER, MONEY and INDUSTRY—and the greatest of these is /NDUSTRY! The Civil War was big—but they shoot away more materials in TEN DAYS now than all the armies, North and South, used in the whole Civil War. It cost a tremendous sum to build the Panama Canal—we could pay for a Pan- ama Canal EVERY WEEK, with the vast sums we're spending NOW—and Rog- er W. Babson, the eminent statistician, says three-quarters of al] this money GOES FOR LABOR. Labor has everything to LOSE if we LOSE THIS WAR, and everything to GAIN if we WIN it. Let the MINES, MILLS and FACTORIES of France, England and America MISS FIRE fora few short weeks—and the HEEL OF THE HUN willbeON THENECKOFTHEWORLD! 20, The WORKERS of America, as a whole, are RESPONDING MAGNIFI- CENTLY to the solemn needs of the TIME—but here and there are men who hang BACK. The ISSUE is clear. A man with the mind of the Middle Ages has plotted the RAPE OF THE WORLD! The Paranoiac of POTSDAM says, “Liberty—is only for US GERMANS, and the rest of mankind SHALL CLEAN OUR BOOTS.” Uncle Sam’s hat’s in the ring for a different idea! i One hundred and forty-two years ago this peace-loving country decided and has since maintained that “All men are CREATED EQUAL—endowed by their Creator with certain INALIENABLE RIGHTS — among which are LIFE, LIBERTY and THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.” This war's going to last until that message, done in CHARACTERS OF FIRE, has been NAILED to the Kaiser’s SHIRT-FRONT! THIS is no time to LAY OFF—or LAY DOWN! Work! Work! Work! Get back of Uncle Sam! Stand by the job NOW—and you'll never HAVE TO be a dog —and lick the hand of the HUN! 4 The firms listed below represent practically every branch of Seattle's great industries: Smelter and Refining ional Leaders F.
