This would be illegal with any assembler.  While you MUST put a
colon after the definition of a label you CAN'T put a colon 
on the reference to it.  Should be:

 	jz	LAB1


The reason you are probably getting the error on the label line
is that many compilers/assemblers think an error at end of line
screws up the next line, but the previous line is OK.
