UNITED IN WAR, FRENCH
PROPAGANDISTS TEAR
HAIR IN PEACE TIMES
BY the Federated Press.

NEW YORK, June 11.-Propa-
aanda carried on in the United
States by the French government is
being uncovered in the feud that
has broken out between two propa-
aanda agencies. President Frank
D. Pavey Of L'AIliance Franchise,
the pro-French society in this coun-
try and Canada which helped to
pull America into the world war,
has broken with CASTOR Liebert,
director Of the French information
bureau, New York. Liebert was
formerly French consul general in
New York.
"The French bureau Of informa-
tion Is maintained by the French
government for the promotion Of
French national interests In the
United States" Pavey charges in a
letter to Liebert. "There is no rea-
son for its existence in New York.
It is under the direction Of min
lister pIenipotentiary' who is not &C
credited to the government Of the
United States and has no official
rank in the United States. It's work
is not under the control Of the
French embassy or the French con-
sulate.
ats status is fundamentally and
Inherently wrong in principle"
Pavey continues. "No foreign gov
eminent ought to be allowed to
maintain any such office within the
limits of the United States"

Average earnings of the operating

RAIL PAYROLLS
MILLIONS LESS
THANLAST YEAR
Labor Statistician Tells
of Blows at Workers
Rx LELANp oLps.

Federated Press Industrial Editor.)
Losses Of railroad employees as a
result of the business recession are
mounting March payrolls we're run
ming $14,041,105 a month behind
March year ago and $29, 1888 be-
low October, 1923, according to the
monthly wage statistics of the inter
state commerce commission. This re-
duction in the amount going each
month to support railroad families is
result of heavy layoffs and reduced
hours.
Since the high point of 1923 rail
road working forces have been re-
duced by 213,237. This brings the
number on payrolls in March to
point 56,211 below year ago. AS
usual in times Of reduced traffic the
carriers are making their chief saw
ings at the expense of the shop en-
ployes, there being 56,9O7 fewer shop
men on the payrolls than in August,
1923 and 42,OS3 less than last March.
Shop payrolls have been reduced by
$S,2O2,764 or more than 10 per cent
compared with a year ago.
Train Service Men Hit.
Train and engine service employees,
particularly in thru freight service,
have also suffered from the retrench-
ment. There are 1926 fewer of this
group on payrolls than last year and
their total monthly pay has fallen by
$6,446,253 or more than per cent,

Limitations of Farmer-Laborism|

urge every worker and poor farmer
Of his state to support and vote for
Shoemaker as governor.
But--and here we put question
how much can farmer-laborite (and
a Communist, for that natter really
do for the oppressed masses even if
elected governor?
Need Legislature Too.
A governor has lots of power ac-
cordlng to the constitution. There can
be no doubt about that. And he some
times exerts even more power than the
constitution grants him. But in prac-
tice it all depends. 1t depends upon
the legislative bodies of the state. If
these latter are controlled by party
which is opposed to the governor, his
political effectiveness becomes very
much reduced and at times almost
completely nullified From which it
follows that the Farmer-Labor party
of Washington must fight for repres-
entation in the state legislative bodies
just as hard as it will fight for the
governorship.
But that is not the main point that
we desire to make. Even with a
friendly legislature, how much power
does governor really possess?
Three Factors Of Government.
This depends upon three things:
One: The class-interests that the
governor happens to represent and
fight for.
Two: The political consciousness
and organized strength of that class.
Three: The readiness and determi-
nation of that class to support it's gov
eminent with the organized strength
that it commands outside Of the gov
ernmental machinery of the state.
All these three conditions taken to-
gether, plus the fighting strength of
that class in the country as whole,
determine the power of governor.
Farmer-Laborite Does Not See It.
Joel Shoemaker, like the typical
farmer-laborite that he is, does not
seem to realize the limitations and the
determining conditions of the powers
of a governor. He seems to believe
lat least this is the impression that
his platform creates) that it is suf-
ticient for him, if elected governor, to
veto, to insist, to demand, to try and
see and things will be happening that
will change fundamentally the condi-
tons of life of the oppressed masses.
Must Have Workers Support.
To repeat: We discuss here not the
intentions of Joel Shoemaker as candi-
datefor governor on the farmer-labor
ticket of Washington but merely his
political effectiveness when elected to
Office.
On the assumption that the makeup
of the courts and state legislature will
be not farmer-labor but capitalist, all
the vetoes, demands, trials and insist.
ence of Joel Shoemaker will not be
worth cent if the workers and poor

ing municipal power plants be given
the right to market surplus power to
farmers and others, without being re-
quired to pay a tax for the privilege of
selling power. 1t is time for the state
Of Washington to conserve it's water
power and develop public hydro-elec-
trio plants wherever possible.
Is. 1 would stand by the constitu-
ton of the state that declares for free

viduals in speech, religion and public

Mayor Is side-stepplng.
Mullins, who has been both patient

investigation. The report put the
blame on DR.. William Hassler, health
officer of San Francisco. The mayor
soon after made trip to Australia
