do. work upon
their peaceful
and
lawful
jobs they willin some
way be
injured.
I
willask you gentlemen
to say to your
con-
stituents
that
the Government
now offers
a reward of twenty-five francs to any
per-
son producing
evidence
that will lead
to
the arrest
and conviction of any person
or
persons
who in any
manner
threaten
or
seek to intimidate
any other
person
or to
in any way deter
or prevent
such
person
from going to and performing
his
or
her
daily
work
or occupation.
There
shall
be
no intimidation
under
the
American
flag and the
Goveinor
will
use
his
full
power
to quell any such attempt.
Every
citizen,
every
man,
woman
and
child
shall proceed
freely
about
their
lawiul
occupation
and
the
Governor
‘will see
that they are not molested.
This is a period of great
depression
in
business
throughout
the world and
busi-
ness
can survive only if there
is
entire
co-operation
between
capital
and
labor.
There
are
thousands
of man and
women
out of work everywhere
in the world and
in the
(Jnited
States
they
number
into
the
hundreds
of
thousands.
All
the
prices in force during the
war
were
in-
flated
and
unhealthy.
They
could
not
survive
the
return
of
peace
conditions,
so that now both prices
and
wages
are
gradually
dropping
to
pre-war
figures.
This is a very ill-advised time for anyone
to strike and
my advice
to all
good
citi-
zens
is to keep the jobs
they
have
and
do their best
to rebuild prosperity;
and
1
most
solemnly
urge
upon
everyone
to
observe
law and order and
carefully
re-
frain from gall injury to property.

Their

Their thanks

Will surely

To mark this rare-day,

Which Providence

And now in‘my conclusion
