Title
English: Float at Labor Day parade, Seattle, September 2, 1918
Description
English:

For many years, Seattle's industries closed on Labor Day, and trade union members marched in the annual Labor Day parade. In 1918, the United States' armed forces were still fighting in Europe. Union members serving at forts and naval stations in the Seattle area marched in the parade in uniform. The Seattle Times reported that 50,000 union members took part in the day's activities. This image shows a float manned by Union members asking citizens to buy war bonds and volunteer for military service.
