ed In his relations with the Adminis
tration. "I like to lay my mind," he said,
"alongside a mind that knows how to
pull in harness. The horses that kick
over the traces will have to be put in
a. corral."
The President's references to Mr.
Gompers were loudly applauded.
"While we are fighting for free
dom," Mr. Wilson asserted after these
references, "we must see among other
things that labor is free " We
must see to it that the instrumentali
ties by which the conditions of labor
are improved are not blocked and
checked. . . . Nobody has a right to
stop the processes of labor until all the
methods of conciliation and settle
ment have been exhausted."
Mob Spirit Denounced.
The President took occasion also to
denounce the mob spirit, which, he said,
"is displaying Itself here and there in
this country," He declared that "if our
men have not self-control they are not
capable of that great thing which we
call democratic government."
A pledge of loyalty to the Govern
ment was contained In the annual re
port of the executive council of the
federation, which was submitted to the
convention today. This report, accord
ing to the usual procedure, was re
ferred to committees named by Mr.
Gompers, and its several sections will
be taken up by the convention as soon
as reported back.
At the afternoon session Secretary
Morrison read a telegram from Frank
J. Hayes, president of the United Mine
Workers of America, denying a report
that Hayes or the mine workers In
tended to lead a fight against Presi
dent Gompers or the war policies of the
Government.
Democracy Labor's Fight.
Governor Charles S. Whitman, of New
York, who also addressed the conven
tion, declared that the fight that de
mocracy may live is the fight of labor,
for labor and democracy are one.
"American working men, he said, are
fighting for the working men of the
world, for it is not on the battle fields
alone that this war is being fought.
"It Is not only what tl. working
man does; It is not only the part he
contributes, but it Is the attitude of
mind and his faith that constitute an
Important part in this world struggle.
"American working men will fight
the battles of the working men of the
world," he said, "because they are born
leaders of progress, and when they are
I. .... n a 4iat o tl a a In

the interests of labor they are fighting,
too, in the battles for civilization and
democracy."
The text of the President's speech
follows:
Mr. President, delegates of the American
Federation of Labor, ladles and gentlemen:
I esteem it a great privilege and a real
honor to be thus admitted to your public
councils. when your executive committee
paid me the compliment of inviting me
here I gladly accepted the Invitation be
cause it seems to me that this, above all
other times in our history, is the time for
- common counsel for the drawing not only
of the energies but of the minds of the
Nations together. I thought it was a wel
come opportunity for expressing to you some
of the thoughts that have been gathering
In my mind during the last momentous
months.
I am introduced to you as the President
of the United States and yet I would be
pleased if you would put the thought of the
office into the background and regard me as
one of your fellow citizens who has come
here to speak, not the words of authority
but the words of counsel, the words which
men should speak to one another, who wish
to be frank in a moment more critical per
haps than the history of the world has
ever yet known, a moment when it is every
man's duty to forget himself, to forget his
own Interests, to fill himself with the no
- blllty of a great National and world con
ception, and act upon a new platform ele
vated above the ordinary affairs of life, ele
vniMd tn where mn have views of the long
destiny of mankind.
Roots of War Ron Deep.
1 think that In order to realize just
What this moment of counsel is. It Is very
desirable that we should remind ourselves
Just how this war came about and what It
Is for. Tou can explain most wars very
simply, but the explanation of this Is not
so simple. Its roots run deep Into all the
obscure soils of history and in my view
this Is the last decisive issue between the
old principles of power and the new prin
ciples of freedom.
The war was started by Germany. Her
authorities deny that they started it. But
I am willing to let the statement I have
Jtast made await the verdict of history. And
vn. thing that nerls to be explained Is why
War, Started by Germany, Is Democracy's
Last Fight, and to Win It Capital and
Labor Must Work Together Day and Night
WILSOX',
President Wilson, in his address before the American Federation
of Labor, emphasized these facts and conclusions:
If we are true friends of freedom we will see that the power
and productivity of this country is raised to its absolute maximum
and that absolutely nobody is allowed to stand in the way of it."
Our duty must be to stand together night and day until the job
is finished. .
While we are fighting for freedom we must see, among other
things, that labor is free; that conditions of labor are not rendered
more onerous by the war, but also that instrumentalities by which
conditions of labor are improved are not blocked or checked.
To stand together means that nobody must interrupt the processes
of our energy.
The horses that kick over the traces will have to be put in a
corral.
Nobody has a right to stop the processes of labor until all meth
ods of conciliation have been exhausted. And I am not talking to
you alone. You are reasonable in a larger number of cases than the
capitalists.
Everybody on both sides has got to transact business, and settle
ment is never impossible when both sides want to do the square
and right things.
A settlement is hard to avoid when the parties can be brought
face to face.
It is hard to hate a man you know.
Let us show ourselves Americans by showing that we want to
co-operate with all other classes and all other groups in a common
enterprise which is to release the spirits of the. world from bondage.
I would be willing to set that up as the final test of an American.
That is the meaning of democracy.
I want to say to every man who joins a mob that I do not recog
nize him as worthy of the free institutions of the United States.
I want to utter my earnest protest against any manifestation of
the spirit of lawlessness anywhere or in any cause.
The fundamental lesson of the whole situation is that we must
not only take common counsel, but that we must . yield to and obey
common counsel.
The war was started by Germany. On that statement I am
willing to await the verdict of history.
What I am opposed to is not the feeling of the pacifists, but their
stupidity. My heart is with them, but my mind has a contempt for
them. I want peace, but I know how to get it, and they do not.
This is the last decisive issue between the old principles of power
and the new principles of freedom.
Germany is determined that the political power of the world shall
belong to her. There have been such ambitions before. They have
been in part realized. But never before have those ambitions been
based upon so exact and precise and scientific a plan of domination.
Any man in America, or anywhere else, who supposes that the free
industry and enterprise of the world can continue if the pan-German
plan is achieved and German power fastened upon the world, is as
fatuous as the dreamers of Russia.

Germany started the war. Remember what
the position of Germany In the world was
as enviable a position as any nation has
ever occupied. The whole world stood at
admiration of her wonderful Intellectual and
material achievements and all the Intel
lectual men of the world went to school to
her. As a university man I have been sur
rounded by men trained in Germany men
who had resorted to Germany because no
where else could they get such thorough
and searching training, particularly In the
principles of science and the principles that
underlie modern material achievements.
Germany Had Place in Son.
Her men of science had made her Indus
tries perhaps tne most competent indus
tries in the world, and the label, "Made in
Germany," was a guarantee of good work
manship, of sound material. She had ac
cess to all the markets of the world, and
every other man who traded In those mar
kets feared Germany because of her ef
fective and almost irresistible competition.
She had a place in the sun. Why was she
not satisfied? What more did she want?
There was nothing In the world of peace
that she did not already have and have In
abundance.
We boast of the extraordinary pace of
American advancement. We show with
pride the statistics of the increase of our
industries and of the population of our
cities. Well, those statistics did not match
the recent statistics of Germany. Her old
cities took on youth, grew faster than any
American city ever grew, her old Indus
tries opened their eyes and saw a new world
and went out for Its conquest. And yet the
authorities of Germany were not satisfied.
Tou have one part of the answer to the
question why she was not satisfied In her
methods of competition. There Is no Im
portant Industry In Germany upon which
the government has not laid its hands to
direct It and, when necessity' arose, con
trol it.
Germany Looking Ahead.
Ton have only to ask any man whom
you meet, who Is familiar with the condi
tions that prevailed before the war In the
matter of International competition, to find
out the methods of competition which the
German manufacturers and exporters used
under the patronage and support of the
government of Germany. Tou will find
that they were the same sorts of competi
tion that we have tried to prevent within
our own borders. If they could not sell
their goods cheaper than we could sell ours.
at a profit for themselves, they could get
a subsidy from the government which made
it possible to sell them cheaper, anyhow.
And the conditions of competition were thus
controlled in large measure by the German
government Itself. But that did not sat'
isfy the German government.
All the while there was lying behind Its
thought. In Its dreams of the future, a po
litical control which would enable it In
the long run to dominate the labor and the
industry of the world. They were not con
tent with success by superior achievement.
they wanted success by authority. I sup
pose very few of you have thought much
about the Berlin-to-Bagdad railway. Tha
Berlin-to-Bagdad railway was constructed tn
order to run the threat of force down the
flank of the Industrial undertakings of half
a dozen other countries, so that when Ger
man competition came in It would not be
resisted too far because there was always
the possibility of getting German armies
into the heart of that country quicker than
any other armies could be got there. Look
at the man of Europe now. Germany, in
thrusting upon us again the discussion of
peace, talks about what 7 Talks about Bel
glum, talks about in ortnern r ranee, xams
about Alsace-Lorraine. Well, those are
deeply interesting subjects to us and to
them, but they are not talking about the
heart of the matter.
Heart of World Controlled.
Take the map and look at It. Germany
has absolute control of Austria-Hungary,
practical control of the Balkan states, con
trol of Turkey, control of Asia Minor.

Hamburg to Bagdad the balk of German

If she can keep that, she has kept all that
her dreams contemplated when the war be
ean. If she can keep that, her power can
disturb the world as long as she keeps It
always provided, for I feel bound to put
this provision, always provided the present
Influences that control the German govern
mnnt continue, to control it.
I believe that the spirit or rreeaom can
get Into the hearts of Germans and find
as fine a welcome there as It can find in
any other heart. But the spirit of freedom

compounded with all the people of that
part of the world and notwithstanding the
fact that they ao not wisn in moir prim
and proper spirit of nationality to be so ab

Ambitions Are Vast.
Germany is determined that the political
newer of the world shall belong to her.
There have been such ambitions before. They
have been In part realized. But never be-
Vore have those ambitions been based upon
so exact and precise and acieatmo a plan 01
domination.
May I not say that It Is amazing to me
that any group of people should be so 11
informed as to suppose, as some groups
Russia apparently suppose, that any reform
planned in. tha interest 9 tne poopla- can
live In the presence of a Germany powerful
enough to undermine or overthrow them by
intrigue or force ? Any body of free men
that compounds with the present German
government Is compounding for its own de
struction. But that is not the whole of the
story. Any man in America, or anywhere else
wno supposes that the free industry and
enterprise of the world can continue if the
pan-German plan is achieved and German
power fastened upon the world. Is as fatuous
as tne dreamers of Russia.

great a lover of peace as any man In the
world. But I did not send him on a peace
mission. I aent him to take part In a con
ference as to. how the war is to be won,
and he knows, as I know, that Is the way
to get peace, if you want it for more than

no sympathy with the men that take pun

to say to every nn does join such
a mob that I do not recognize him as worthy
of the free Institutions of the United States.
There are some organizations In this country
whose object is anarchy and the destruction
of law, but I would not meet their efforts
by making myself a partner In destroying
the law. X despise and hate their purpose,
but I respect the ancient - process of
Justice and I would be too proud not to see
them done Justice, however wrong they are.
And so I want to utter my earnest protest
against any manifestation of the spirit of
lawlessness anywhere or In any cause.
Why, gentlemen. look what it means: we
claim to be the greatest democratic people
in the world, and democracy means, first of
all, that we can govern ourselves. If our
men have not self control, then they are not
capable of that great thing we call demo
cratic government. A man who takes the
law into his hands Is not the right man to
co-operate in any form of or development
or law and institution. And some or tne
processes by which the struggle between
capital and labor is carried on are proc
esses that come very near to taking the
law Into your own hands. I do not mean
for a moment to compare them with what I
have Just been sneaking of. but I want to
show that they are mere gradations of the
manifestations of the unwillingness to co
operate, and the fundamental lesson of the
whole situation is that we must not only
take common counsel, but that we must
yield to and obey common counsel.
President Hopeful for Best.
Not all of the Instrumentalities for this
are at hand. I am hopeful that In the very
near future new Instrumentalities may be
organized by which we can see to it that
various things that are now going on shall
not go on. There are various processes of
the dilution of labor and the unnecessary
substitution of labor and bidding In distant
markets and unfairly upsetting the whole
co-operation of labor, which ought not to go
on I mean now on the part of employer
and we must Interject into this some in
strumentality of co-operation by which the
fair thing will be done all around. 1 am
hopeful that some such Instrumentalities
may be devised, but whether they are or
not, we must use those that we have, and
upon every occasion where it is necessary.
to have such an Instrumentality originated
upon that occasion. If necessary.
And so, my fellow citizens, the reason
that I came away from Washington is that
I sometimes get lonely down there. There
are so many people tn Washington who
know things that are not so, and there are
so few people in Washington who know
anything about what the people of the
United States are thinking about, I have to
come away to get reminded of the rest of
the country; I have to come away and talk
to men who are up against the real thing
and say to them. "I am with you if you
are with me." And the only test of being
with me is not to think about me personally
at alt, but merely to think of me as the
representative for the time being of the
power and dignity and hope of the United
States.
PRESIDENT RETURNS HOME
No Speeches Made at Stations Along
Way, but Hands Are Shaken
WASHINGTON. Nov. 12. President
Wilson returned to Washington tonight,
having been absent less than 30 hours
on his trip to Buffalo to address tne
convention of the American Federation
of Labor.
At several stations on the return
trip the President appeared on the rear
platform of his car and shook hands
with the crowds. At most of the places
he was urged to speak, but declined,
answering an appeal at one town by
savin:
'I only brought one cartridge witn
me. and have nrea mat. x nope it
reached the mark."
At another place a man shouted:
"Tell us about the war."
That's too blK an order to fill," the
President replied.
