Yes, labels will have to be created (and saved to a file which will then
be passed to hts_engine program).
You can do that automatically within the Festival Speech Synthesis System.
(Preferably the latest 1.96 version of Festival.)

The actual format of the labels corresponds with the set of questions
that were used when building the "language model" with HTK.
The format you quoted (below) is the format used in the CMU Arctic
based HTS voices.
