Prussian Rule Must Go, Labor's Declaration in

Endorsing War Aims VASfUN;TN iv:. 1 Amer-endore,! by British organized laican labor's endorsement of w;iri bor. It is in absolute harmony aims a stated by Pres't Wilson and with th fundamentals endorse! by recognition tl.at the war against th- l.uffab convention of the AmcrPrufsianism i a working man's war lean Federation uf habur.

n io.uHcj im ;i ueciaration issued Sunday right by th executive council of the convent: of the American Federation of Labor at th- clo' of a seven day session at h'-ad'juarters h-re. TIip declaration mvs tiie peace parley Inwrm ILus-La and Cermany hae shown nf. futility of diplomatic negotiations until the German militarists are convinced the; cannot superimpose their will oij the rest spo Ttanrons of th" world uprisings in and that Germany ;i; e demonstrated that the militarist government is still stronger than the movement there for the emancipation. A gigantic struts!' Ii1 ahead and now is a time when all workers must soberly face the grave importance of their" daily work, say a the declaration and it adds: "Give workers a decent place to live, protect them against conditions to take all their wages for bare existence, glv them. ivapes whereby grievances can be adjut"d and industrial jutice assured, make it plain that their labor counts in the winning a war for greater freedom not for private potiteering ai.d workers can confidently be expected to do their part. Workers are loyal. They want to do their share for the republic and for winning the war." Text of Declaration. Following is the text of the declaration: "We are face to face with a world struggle. We are in a world struggle whoih will determine tor the immediate future whether principles of democratic freedom or principles of force shall dominate. The decision will determine not the destiny of nations, but of every community and of every individual. No life will be untouched. "Hither the principles of free democracy or of Prussian militaristic autocracy will prevail. There can be no compromises. So there can be no neutrality among nations or Individuals; we must stand up, and be counted with one cause or the other. For labor there is but one choice. "Th" hope of labor lies in op portunity from freedom. The workers of America will not permit them selves to be deceived or deceive t li ?i d c ps Infi- thlnk-lnf llie f n t e I of the war will not vitally change our own lives, a' victory for Germany would mean a pan-German empire dominating Kurope and eer eising a world balance f power which Germany will seek to extend by force into world control. I'riiian Hille i 1 'uf reelom. " I'rusM.ui rub means super ision. checks. unfie-dom in every relation of life. "Prussianism has its roots in the old ideal under which men sought to rub- by suppressing the mind and wills of their fellows; it blights their ideal of government, without force or chains political or industrial - protected y perfect freedom for all. "Fnles: th" reconstruction shall soon come from the German workers within that country it is now plain that an opportunity to uproot th agencies of force will come only when democracy lias defeated, autocracy in the military field and wins the right to reconstruct relations between nations and man. The Pace parleys between Russia and ;ermanv have sh wn the futility of 'diplomacy until Prussian militarists are convim ed they cannot superimpose their will on the rest of tlw I world. Force is the basis of their i winde organization and is the only argument they will understand. Problem of German People. Spontaneous uprisings in Germany in protest against th' militarist government have shown that tlr- German government is still I t ri : ii ,- than the movement for ; Gerrr.au emancipation. German fro'dom is ultimately the problem of the German people. Tint th" de-f-at of Prussian rt'itocracy on the battle lie ill will bring an opportunity for German liberty at home. "We have passed the period when ;.mv one nation can maint.xin Ms freedom irrespectively of other nations. Civilization has closely llnk- , ed l.atior.s togeth r by the ties of euiumei ce ;ind i u ! c U cornmanica- ' tion, common interests, problems J and purposes.

"We are at war for those ideals Our lirst big casualty list has brought to every home th" harass and the sacrifices of war. This is only the beginning. A gigantic struggle lies Just ahead that will t.t to the utrermost the endurance and the ability and the spirit of our people. That strusrcle will be founht out in the mine., farms, shops, mill. j ship yardi as well as on the Wattle lield?. Sohilers and sailors are helpless if the producers do not do their I part. Hvery link I the mobilization in the chain ci of the fighting force anl necessary supplies is indi pensahl? to winning the war against militarism and principles of unfreedorn. "The worker that fastens the rivets in building the ship is performing just as neressary war s "- vice to oi.r republic as the sailor who take. the ship across or tic gunner in the trenches. "This is a time when all workers must sotvrly, face the grave importance of ;heir dally work and riecido industrial matters with a conscience? mindful of the world relation of each act. "Th" problem of production, indispensable to preventing unnce.--sary slaughter of fellow men Is tsqtiarely bp to all workers aye, to employes and employers. Production depends upon materials, tools, management and the development and maintenance of industrial morale. Willing cooperation conies r.ot cnly from doing justice bot from receiving justice. The worker is a human being whose life has value and dignity to him. He is willing to sacrifice fur an ideal but not for the seltisn gain of another. Justice begets peace. Consideration hegecs cooperation. These conditions are essential to war production. Production is necessary to win the war. When IU'spoindMlity Urs.

Workers are loyal. They want to do their share for tV republic and for winning the war. "This i.s labor's war. It must be won by labor and every stage in the lighting and the final victory must be to count for humanity. That result only can justify the awful sacrifice. "We piesent these matters to the workers of free America, confidently relying upon the splendid spirit and understanding which has made possible present progress, to enable us to fight a good fight and to es- 1 lablish principles of freedom j throughout the whole world.
