FRENCH CHAMBER
VOTES FOR STATE
MONOPOLY OF OIL
sition Predicts
u. S. Retaliation
lspeeiaI to La paIIy Workerl

PARIS, April 6 = The BRAND gov
eminent, after bitter struggle, has
at length a balanced budget within its
grasp. A vote of confidence was pass
ed, 227. to 100, with a large bloc of
deputies abstaining.
The chamber of deputies voted in
somewhat amended form all the addi-
tional resources demanded by the gov
eminent in the interest of such a
budget for 1926. 1t also adopted the
increase in the business turnover tax,
which BRAND made a question of con-
fidence and which has aroused such
violent opposition. The whole scheme
was saddled at the last moment with
a provision requiring the government
to undertake monopolies in all oil and
sugar sold in France.
The acceptance of the monopolies
is freely interpreted in chamber lob
bies as the price the government paid
the socialists for permitting the adop-
ton of the budget. A governmental
oil monopoly will necessitate interna-
tional negotiations. The government
is fearful that its establishment will
upset the debt negotiations with Great
Britain and the United States.
A New Problem.
It is estimated that the oil business
in France now, represents 100000, 900
francs Investment of English and
American capital. The government will
be hard pressed to find funds to take
over the industry. raas s
The BRAND government expects the
American government to take retail
atory measures such-'as putting into
effect a law requiring that all Amer
lean exports be carriedin ships flying

Catholic Archbishop
S h o w S Christianity
by OBTAINING Mexico
tspeeIar to The oaIIy worker,

WASHINGTON, April 6 - Charles
w. Darr, appearing as counsel for
Archbishop Curley Of Baltimore, be-
fore the house committee on foreign
affairs, urged adoption of the Boy
ian resolution advising withdrawal Of
American recognition of Mexico. Arch
bishop Curley is conducting a bitter
campaign against the Gales govern
ment because of its enforcement of
the constitutional provision that for
eign-born priests and nuns shall not
be permitted to oflciate or teach in
Mexico. LIZ
The argument of his counsel was
to the effect that the present Mexican
constitution tends to mold it's gov
eminent after. that of "the feared and
despised Bolshevik government Of Red
Russia; that this constitution and
its consequent enforcement offends in
ternational standards of decency; that
it deprives American citizens of rights
in Mexico which Mexicans enjoy in
this country and that this constitu-
ton "shamelessly confiscates" prop
erty of Americans and other foreign
res, as well as that of Mexican citi-
zens.
President Gales is described in this
memorandum to the house committee
aC "Mr. Elias Gales, super bigot,
bandit, revolutionist and Bolshevik."
Prediction is made that his govern
ment will fall amid bloodshed and
strife"

MANAGER FORCED
TO RESIGN 10 B
Workers Expose His
Pro6teering
BY A. LINKEV. i.
Worker Correspondent.

NEW YORK, April Gossip Violin
sky, manager of the International
Pocketbook Workers Union of New
York City, has been forced to resign.
Several charges have been preferred
against him, including: ~ For sew
the Yourok Universal Musical Bureau
of which Morris White is treasurer.
(2) Since May he has been connect
ed with the White Luggage Company,
the factory owned by Morris and
Louis White (pocketbook manufac-
turers) from whom he received a sal
airy of $4,000 year.
illegal Adviser"
During the several years he was
connected with the union Wolinsky
acted in the capacity of legal adviser,
the union paid him his expenses, but
these Expenses" soon grew to $50 a
week. He then proposed that the
union fire the old manager, who was
getting SIS a week and give him
(Wolinsky) the job of illegal advisor"
and manager at 500 week. This
was done with the aid Of the 'boys"
who are now in the administration.
Not satisfied with his 800, he COM
Wandered the editorship Of the union
magazine for the small sum" of $25,
in all $125 a week. This magazine
was used as base for attacking Com
munists and progressive workers.
This "idealist" has in turn been an
anarchist, socialist, Zionist, and Jew
ish congressman.
Terrorism.
With the aid of gangsters and UNI
scrupulous people he was able to
maintain his hold on the union. No
method was bad as long as it served
the purpose. Terrorizing the member
ship, expulsion Of active members,
handing out soft" Jobs to his boys,
were some Of the methods used
Before elections and nominations
his "boys" got busy. Business agents
got busy on the telephone. Shop
chairmen were instructed to bring
down people that could be relied on"
In the election meeting of 1925 VOL
insky came with five of his candidates.
The meeting, however, decided to
have its own representatives and NOM
mated five progressive workers. The
chairman of the meeting then chose
impartial" tellers and they counted
so 'impartially" that the chairman an
nounced that the progressives lost. A
spontaneous protest arose and the
chairman, refusing to grant fair re-
count, 400 workers left the hall. AS
a result of this IL of the most active
members of the union were sus-
pended.
This is the democracy that obtained
in the International Pocketbook Work
ers Union. 1t was not unusual to hear
at meetings such remarks as watch
for whom you vote or you'll know
what will happen about job"
The last chapter of the Wolinsky
case has not been written yet. There
will yet be forthcoming many deeds
perpetrated upon the workers Of the
union.

Labor Defense Challenges Harrington

formerly the business agent of the
Pittsburgh district council Of the
union. The vice-chairman is the well.
known Chicago liberal, Edward c.
Wentworth.
The National Committee.
On the national committee of the
International Labor Defense are such
famous liberals as Alice Stone Black
well, Professor Ellen Hayes of Well
esley, Robert Whitaker of California,
David Rhys Williams, and E. r. Melt
zen, leader of the farmer-labor party
movement in the Southwest. Other
non-Communist members include such
well-known socialist figures as Upton
Sinclair and Eugene v. Debs
. Men of no political party such as
Scott Nearing, Robert w. Dunn.
Bishop VIM. NJ. Brown, Ralph Chap
lin, Fred Mann and others are also
members of the national committee.
A glance at the list is conclusive proof
Of the falsehood of Farrington's
charge.
Doesn't Know Nader.
Harrington charges that the Interna-
tional Labor Defense is behind a
movement which is having printed in
the establishment of one Carl Nader,
Of Terre Haute, Indiana, leahet con-
tanning an attack upon him, and men
lions three individuals in Zeigler, H.,
as having ordered the circular. The
International Labor Defense positively
denies any knowledge of such leaf
let, or of Carl Nader, or of the three
Individual named and defies Far
rington to prove that it is connected
with this proposition.
"Prove Your chargesI"
THE International Labor Defense
has aroused Mr.. Farringtons wrath
because of its unfiinching defense Of
the framed-up Zeigler miners" con
cluded Cannon. These miners are
victims of a conspiracy, and altho they
are members of the United Mine
Workers of America Harrington did
not raise a finger to defend them.
The International Labor Defense
will issue detailed statement in re-
futation of Farrington's charges and
distribute this statement thruout the
country and especially thruout the
mining field of Southern Illinois. We
will put the facts before the miners
and let them judge And we repeat
our challenge. to Harrington, prove
your charges!"
