Washington, May 20. Following
is the text of President Wilson's
message to the extraordinary ses
sion of the 66th congress.
Gentlemen of the Congress:
I deeply regret my inability to be
present at the opening of Jbe ex
traordinary session of congress. It
still seems to be my duty to take
part in the counsels of the peace
conference and contribute what I
can to the solution of the innmer-
fable questions which affect the
peace of the whole world and from
them therefore, the United States
cannot 'stand apart. '
I deemed it my duty to call the
congress together at this time be
cause it was not wise to postpone
longer the provisions which must
be made for the support of the gov
ernment. Many of the appropria
tions which are absolutely neces
sary for the maintenance of the
government and the fulfillment of
its varied obligations for the fiscal
year 1919-1920 have not yet been
made; the end of the present fiscal
year is at hand; and action upon
these appropriations can no longer
be prudentlytdelayed. It is neces
sary therefore that I should im
mediately call your attention to this
critical need. It is hardly neces
sary for me to urge that it may re
ceive your prompt attention.

the United States millions of "Taleum powder" tablets as Aspirin Tablets.

' DoiTt forget that the "Bayer Cross" is your only
protection against dangerous counterfeits.
Don't fail to say to druggist:
"I want 'Bayer Tablefs of Aspirin'
in a Bayer package." The genuine!
Buy only the regular Bayer pack
age with the safety "Bayer Cross"
upon it and on each tablet inside.

I shall take the liberty of address
ing you on my return on the sub
jects which have most engrossed
our attention and the attention of
the world during these last anxious
months, since the armistice of last
November was signed, the intera
tional settlements which must form
the subject master of the present
treaties of peace and of our national
action in the immediate future. It
would be premature to discuss them
or to express a judgment about them
before they are brought to their
complete formulation by the agree
ments which are now being sought
at the table of the conference. I
shall hope to lay them before you in
their many aspects as soon as ar
rangements have been reached.
I hesitate to venture any opinion
or press any recommendation with
regard to domestic legislation while
absent from the United States and
out of daily touch with intimate
sources of information and counsel.
I am conscious that I need, after so
long an absence from Washington,
to seek the advice of those who
have remained in constant contact
with domestic problems and who
have known them close at hand from
day to day; and I trust that it will
very soon be possible for me to d6
so. But there are several questions
pressing for consideration to which
I feel Jhat I may, and indeed must,
even now direct your attention, if in
only general terms.
Labor Big Question.
In 'speaking of them I shall, I
dare say, be doing little more than
speak your own thoughts. I hope,
that I shall speak your own judg
ment also. The question which
stands at the front of all others in
every country- amidst the present
great awakening is the question of
labor; and, perhaps I can speak of it
with as great advantage while en
grossed in the consideration of in
terests which affect all countries
alike as I could at home and amidst
the interests which naturally most
affect my thought, because they are
the interests of our own people.
By the question of labor I do not
mean the question of efficient in
dustrial production; the question of
how labor is to be obtained and
made effective in the great process
of sustaining populations and win
ning success amidst commercial and
industrial rivalries. I mean that
much greater and more vital ques
tion, how are the men and women
who do the daily labor of the world
to obtain progressive improvement
in the conditions of their labor, to
be made happier, and to be served
better by the communities and the
industries which their labor sustains
and advances. How are they to be
given their right advantage as citi
zens and human beings?
Must Change Plans.
We cannot go any further in our
present direction. We have already
gone too far. We cannot live our
right life as a nation or achieve our
proper sucyss as an .industrial com-
m unity if capital and labor are to
continue to be antagonistic instead
of being partners; if they are to
continue to distrust one another and
contrive how they can" get the bet
ter of one another. Or, what per
haps amounts to the same, thing,
calculate by what form and degree
of coercion they can manage to ex
tort, on the one hand, work enough
to make enterprise profitable; on
the other,' justice and fair treatment
enough to make life tolerable.
That bad road has turned out a
blind alley. It is no thoroughfare
to real prosperity. We must find
another, leading in another direction
and to a very different destinatfon.
It must lead not merely to accom
modation, but also to a genuine co
operation and partnership based
upon a real community of interest
and participation in control.
Need Partnership.
There is now in fact a real com
munity of interest between capital
and labor, but it has never been
made evident in action. It can be
made operative and manifest only in
a new organization of industry. The
genius of our business .men and the
sound practical sense of our work
ers can certainly work such a part
nership out when once they realize
exactly what it is that they seek and
sincerely adopt a common purpose
with regard to it.
Labor legislation lies, of course,
chiefly with the states; but the new
spirit and method of organization
which must be effected are not to be
brought about by legislation so
much as by the common counsel and
voluntary co-operation of capitalist,
manager and workman. Legislation
can go only a very little way in com
manding what shall be done. The
organization of industry is a matter
of corporate and individual initiative
and of practical business arrange
ment. Those who really desire a
new relationship between capital
and labor can readily find a way to
bring it about and perhaps federal
legislation can help more than state
legislation could.
Democratize Industry.
The object of all reform in this es
sential matter must be the genuine
democratization of industry, based
upon a full recognition of the right
of those who work, in whatever
rank, to participate in some organic
way in every decision which directly
affects their welfare or the part they
are to play in industry. Some posi
tive legislation is practicable.
The congress has already shown
the way to one reform which should
be world wide, by establishing the
eight-hour day as the standard day
in every field of labor over which it
can exercise control. It has sought
to find the way to preveent child
labor, and will, I hope and believe,
presently find it It has served the
whole country by leading the way in
developing the means of preserving
and safeguarding life and health in
dangerous industries. It can now
help in the difficult taskl of giving

a new form and spirit to industrial
organiiatibn by co-ordiating the sev
eral agencies of conciliation and ad
justment which have been brought
into existencee by the difficulties
and mistaken policies of the ntsent
management of industry and by set
ting up and' developing new federal
agencies of advice and information
which may serve as a clearing house
for the best experiments and the
best thought on this great matter
upon which every thinking man must
be aware that the future develop
ment of society directly depends.
Find Soldiers Work.
Agencies of international counsel
and suggestion are presently to be
created in connection with the
league of nations in this very field;
but it is national action and the en
lightened policy of individuals, cor
porations and. societies within each
nation that must bring about the ac
tual reforms. The members of the
committees on labor in the two
houses will hardly need suggestions
from me as to what means they shall
seek to make the federal government
the agent of the whole nation in
pointing out and, if need be, guiding
the process of reorganization and re
form. I am sure that it is not necessary
for me to remind you that there is
one immediate and very practical
question of labor that we should
meet in the most liberal spirit. We
must see to it that our returning sol
diers are assisted in every practic
able way to find the places for which
they are fitted in the daily work of
the country. This can be done by
developing and maintaining upon an
adequate scale, the admirable or
ganization created by the depart
ment of labor for placing men seek
ing work; and ;t can also be done,
in at least one very great field, by
creating new opportunities for in
dividual enterprise.
Urges Land Development.
The secretary of the interior has
pointed out the .way by which re
turning soldiers may be helped to
find and take up lands in the hither
to undeveloped regions of the coun
try which the federal government
has prepared or can readily prepare
for cultivation and for many of the
cut-over, neglected areas which lie
within the limits of the older states;
and I once more take the liberty of
recommending very urgently that
his plans shall receive the immediate
and substantial support of the con
gress. Peculiar and very stimulating con
ditions await our commerce and in
dustrial enterprise in the immediate
future. Unusual opportunities will
presently present themselves to our
merchants and producers, in foreign
markets and large fields' for profit

our free capital. But it is not only
of that that I am thinking; it is not
chiefly'of that that I am thinking.
Need of Materials.!
Many great industries prostrated
by the war wait to be rehabilitated in
many parts of the world, where what
will be lacking is not brains or will
ing hands or organizing capacity or
experienced skill, but machinery and
raw materials and capital. I believe
that our business men, our mer
chants, our manufacturers and our
capitalists will have the vision to see
that prosperity in one part of the
world ministers to prosperity every
where. That there is in a very true
sense a solidarity of interest
throughout the world of enterprise,
and that our dealings with the coun
tries that have need of our products
and our money will teach them to
deem us more than ever friends
whose necessities we seek in the
right way to serve.
Shipyards Helpful.
Our new merchant ships, which
have in some quarters been feared
as destructive rivals, may prove
helpful rivals, rather, and common
servants, very much needed and very
welcome. Our great shipyards, new
and old, will be so opened to the use
of the world that they will prove im
mensely serviceable to every "matri
time people in restoring, much more
rapidly than would otherwise have
been possible, the tonnage wantonly
destroyed in the war. i
I have only to suggest that there
are manv points at which we can fa
cilitate American enterprise in for
eign trade by opportune legislation
and make it easy for American mer
chants to go where they will be wel
comed as friends rather than as
dreaded antagonists. America has a
great and honorable service to per
form in bringing the commercial and
industrial undertakings of the world
back to their old scope and swing
again and putfinga solid structure of
credit under them. , All our legisla
tion should be friendly to such plans
and purposes.
