Labor Day

Our country has set aside this coming Monday as Labor Day. The U.S. Department of Labor claims the holiday is: "...a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country."PBS says America's Labor Day is "...an attempt to appease the nation's workers..."
Most countries in Europe observe Labor Day on May 1, to commemorate the American martyrs to the labor movement.
I'm confused. Does that mean Europeans *stop* wearing white in May?
