Vol. 7, No. 24 "MY COUNTRY" SOBS GOMPERS AS HE LANDS "Victory Loan. Forerunner of Happier State of Society," Declares Labor Head. . The press dispatches the other day carried a story telling of the return home ot Samuel Gompers, president of the American 'Federation of Labor, from Europe. The dispatch said: s "When Gompers set foot on Amer ican soil JiQ broke down, sobbing, 'My country, my country;' " It was a sincere display of emotion. Gomper3 .was feclins beneath his feet the soil of the country that gave him asylum the- SOU of a country that gave him opportunity tp; rise through his own. unaided Efforts from a humblo cigar maker to the greatest labor leader in the world. Gompers Is behind the Victory Lib erty Loan. He Is behind it because it Is for America. Here is what he says of it: "Our great republic, the home of democracy, the land ot the brave and the free, again find? it necessary to uppeal to all our people for their loyal and patriotic support in launching and carrying to a successful conclusion the Victory 'Loan Campaign. "No one familiar with the vast un "dertaking our nation has just com pleted with triumph and victory will tiuestion In any way the need aiyl necessity of the Victory Loan. "The Victory Loan is the forerunner of a happier state of society, a guar antee of peace and tranquillity of the world, the hope of a better day and a brighter light. I heartily Join with my 'fellow-citizens in urging every worker and every organization of workers to take part in this splendid effort to finance our democracy's peace with the wealth and savings of all our peo ple. "Invest your savings made safe by the victory of our arms In tho Victory Loan." HELP WOMEN! ' These are the last days of tho Vic tory Loan the last ouys of the last Liberty Loan. Yet there are somo among us who have not seen tho way bf duty, whono ears have not heard the call of America. Herein lies a great opro'tunity lor women workers in the Lpr.n to search these out, to make their eyes see, and to make their ears hear. The 'argu ment of a sweet, noble woman is un answerable. Carter Glass, secretary of the treas ury, says of woman's work In tho Loan": ' 1 ' ' "Having demonstrated 'what thoy could do in time of war, the women of America have "been qulctf to un Uerst4nd that the cessation Of hostil ities J'dld riot end the obligations in curred In actual warfare. It 1b with confidence that tho Governraerlt asks 'every woman of the nation to become a teacher itf'the Victory Liberty Lour.." No' man can'rofuso to take his ebaro of ino Victory Loan, when a real wonYdn looks him in tho eye and says: J'Your mpther would wantf you to." Every little makes a micklc.
