ployes' department, A. F. of L., IS
conducting an organizing campaign
among Pennsylvania railroad shop

President Atterbury and other high

The changed attitude of these ex-
ecutiyes follows conferences with
President Green, President Wharton,
of the international Association of
Machinists, and other union execu-
tives.
"These trade unionists," says the
international Association of Machin-
lists in public statement, were per.
sonally told that not only would the
company not only interpose no obiec-
tions to campaign being conducted
by the railway employees department,
but the statement was emphasized
that no employe of the company would

an organization affiliated with the
railway employees department.
in other words, no employe of the
Pennsylvania railroad need fear the
loss of his job by joining the union
of his craft or that he will be dis
crlminated against for so doing. The
responsible officials have given their
personal assurance that the railway
employees department is free to or
ganize Pennsylvania railroad shop
men,"

PARIS, July 17.-While Premier
Poincare was confined to his bed today
with exhaustion and extreme fatigue
from his strenuous efforts on behalf Of
the debt accords with America and
Great Britain, the French Chamber of
Deputies gave him second vote Of con-
fidence. $50 to 23s.
The vote came on the resolution of
the Socialist Deputy Blum seeking sub
ordination of the adoption of the Young
plan to immediate evacuation of the
Rhineland. The resolution was posed
for a confidence vote by Vice Premier
Louis Barthou, who thus took another
opportunity to emphasize the govern
ment's victories of yesterday.
Opposition Loses Ground.
While the vote was being taken, it
was noised around that the premier S
physician had found a slight feverish
condition. but said he was not In the
least gravely Ill. He prescribed "a
hours complete rest and M. Barthou
said he expected M. Poincare back in
the chamber on Friday.

vote was nearly double that of last
night and was significant, because the
opposition had one less vote than yes
terday. while the additional deputies
present all stood by the government.

weight on the naval problem will come
