ROUND TWO OF THE GREAT OIL HOl'� IU THE HORI�

NEti YORK, N.Y . , Nov. 10 (IPS) --This week, Canada • s Exxon-controlled oil companies reduced their expor t of oil to U . s. refinerie s by . 200,000 barrels a day. In Saskatchewan, produc tion of. crude oil has been reduced by 25 per cent.

..

�sked to comment on this development in light of Rockefel ler's conspiracy to unleash the Second. Great Oi l Hoax sometime thi.s month , an oil industry ana lyst answered nonchalantly , "You s ee, it's not really an embargo . U . S. refineries just aren't buying--Canadian oil is overpriced and the U . S . has three months of supplies . "

�llien it was pointed out that this situation in fact 'constitutes a de facto embargo--at a time w�en a Mideast war, contrived to legi­timize such an embargo , is about to explode--the hapless ana lyst be­came notably agitated . "The thesis you are developing worries me," he declared .

FRENCH "SCMIDALS" DRESS UP GISCARD'S NATO DRAGON SLnYER Ht�SQUER.('U>E

Uov. 10 (IPS)--The Rockefeller cabal has just detonated two scanda ls in France, both of which are (paradoxically) designed to present

- France as the arena of a pi tched battle between treacherous agents of the United States and virtuous defenders of the nationa l interest . Offerred the pos s ibi lity of unambiguous ly condemning tho agents' shady dealings, French president Giscard d'Es taing is emerging as a courageous Saint-George-type opponent of the N�TO , multinational dragon. This reputation is absolutely necessary to Giscard if he is to fully succeed in suckering the credulous Soviets into accept­ance of the consolidated "neutralizedv1 Europe which it is his C Il\.­assigned duty to initiate in the coming months .

The first scandal concerns Paul Stehlin , a re serve Air Force general and a member of the most militant pro-American faction of Giscard's parliamentary majority . � few weeks ago , Stehlin was stupid enough to author a defense of the U.S . -built Y- 16 fighter­bomber whi le deriding the value of the French Mirage F-l . Both airplanes are presently in competition for the favors of the Dutch and Belgian air forces.

Follmdng the Uew York Times' endorsement of Stehlin's initia­tive a few days ago , a virtual torrent of indignant comments issued forth from the ranks of the nationalist Gaullist UDR party in Paris .

·1\s a result , "traitor" Stehlin has been forced to resign his office of Vice President of the French assembly� the Air Force's higher council may yet decide to deprive him of his rank as reserve general.

- In the meantime , Giscard is seizing the opportunity to brand Steh-lin's ac tion as "shocking, blameful" and contrary to the national interest .

VlThe use of -grain . for livestock raising instead of for feeding malnourished or starv­ing peoples makes us appear as cannibals.

II EXPORT " OF CANADIlUT FARMERS TO THInD l'lORLD U!1GED

I�ov. 7 (IPS) --In an interview with Canadian journalists at the t'1orld Food Conference in Rome, Charles Monroe, head of the International Federation of Agricultural Producers, called. for the exportation of growing numbers of unemployed Canadian farmers to Third World coun­tries. As top spokesman for this 50 member nation organization and a central planner of the United l�ations sponsored World Food Con­ference, Monroe was simply making explicit and public the Rockefel­ler-UcNamara plans for the replacement of capital intensive advanced sector agriculture with labor intensive backward sector agriculture He identified the key feature of this transformation: the recycling of displaced agricultural farmers from the industrial world to the Third i'lor ld.

I40nroe was not alone in pushing labor relocation to the Rocke­feller-created Fourth Horld. His statement was not only echoed by Canadian Agricultural Minister Eugene Waylan, but given Third World support by the Conference deleqatefrom the Cameroons, who argued that the underdeveloped areas of the world suffer from a shortage of farm laborers and not a shortage of experts and technicians. Uoreover, the Canadian newspaper La Presse communicated t o the mounting numbers of hysterical and unemployed Canadian farmers the final solution to their problems through front-page stories and ' bold headlines entitled .. Canadian Farmers to the Third Tllor ld. "

1\.s is the case throughout the advanced sector generally, the breakneck collapse of agriculture in Canada, whiCh is translating itself into growing pools of unemployed farmers, has created oppor­tune conditions for the implementation of farm slave labor exporta­tion. . As a resul t of deliberately a'tran<Jed deflationary credit policies, fertilizer shortages, and strikes, Canadian farmers are experiencing bankruptcies and foreclosures at an unprecedented rate. In Sas.katchewan, two-thirds of all feedlot operations have shut down, not only producing waves of unemployment, but ghost t�·ms of hundreds of rural communities throughout the area. Meanwhile, the walkout of grain inspectors on the West Coast and the coming of winter to the Great Lakes threaten to'bankrupt grain producers who are forced to finance storage of grain blocked from exports at these two principle shipping ports.

.

The Rockefeller-arranged collapse of Canadian agricultUre is producing hyste�ia in tbe agricultural sector. In Quebec, irate farmers protesting low prices for beef producers plowed up the lawn of the Natural Resources Minister and dumped manure, animal urine, and dead calves. In St . • Jean farmers blocked traffic f01; four hours and sprayed provincial offices with animal urine and manure. At the same time the National Farmers' Union is planning isolated, token demonstrations tilroughout the country climaxed by sit-ins at feder­al agricultural department offices.

FUSIon ENERGY FOUND1\TION FORMS

NE't'T YORK, H.Y., Novo 9 (IPS)--The Fusion Energy Foundation formally will get off the ground Nov. 23 with a morning forum comparing fu­sion and solar energy and an afternoon session to set up an organi­zational structure and discuss objectives.

Follo�1ing '''1idespread Labor Committee exposure of htornic Energy Commission sabotage of fusion po�,'er research and d evelopment, the Fusion Energy Foundation is intended to become the authoritative world energy policy body. Its establishment is the realization of grm,ring ferment among fusion researchers for a crash program to de­velop controlled thermonuclear fusion power, initiated by Labor Com­mittee organizing.

Organizing by the Fusion Energy Foundation Founding Committee among agencies and national rUssions to the United 1'1ations has pro­duced intense interest in the feasibility of fusion power on the part of scientists and administrators, especially those from the Third T"Jorld. Representatives of the International Atomic Energy Agency and the UN Offic e of Science and Technology will also be present at the morning meeting.

The afternoon session will be chaired by Larry Bogart of th e anti-fission Citizen's Energy Council. Co-sponsors include Profes­sor l:lorris Levitt of the National Caucus of Labor Committees and Fred HO\r1ard of Yale Uni versi ty 's Department of Computer Sciences.

"The Foundation '�ill provide a means for socialists and other scientists to collaborate on this vital research and educational work. Fusion energy is the keystone of future technological de­velopment and hmnan progress q II said Levitt.

THE T1'.KEOVE::l OF FREnCH INDUSTRY BY ROCKEFELLER hND HIS �B ALLIES

Uov. 9 (IPS)--Last ,,,,eekend's meeting of the Franco-Arab Chamber of Commerce held in Casablanca, I'iorocco officially sanctioned the take­over of French industry by Rockefeller and confirmed President Gis­card d'Estaing's intention rapidly to complete the i�redeploym ent"-­dismantling and relocation--of his country's economy to the Third T'!orld.

Statements made by participants in the Casablanca meeting suf­fice to prove the complete sell-out of French capitalists and the State to Rockefeller and his Arab allies. Jacques Ferry, president of the French steel syndicate who also functions as ;� international

vice-president" of the employers' association CNPF, readily con­fessed that French capital "does not oppose lcrupp-style operations." Ferry �·1(;\'S alluding to the Shah of Iran's acquisition of 25 per cent of the West German firm's shares last summar, as well as to a simi­lar operation involving Creusot-Loire, France's major nuclear plant producer, two weeks ago.

The significance of those developments is underlined by the re­cent promotion of Hugues de l'Estoile, former. chief gun-runner of France's defense department in the r·-Uddle· East, to a dictatorial post in the area of industrial development • . De l'Estoile makes no bones about the inuninent.transfer of the French steel, petrochemi­cal, and auto industries to "countries ricb in natural res6urcesll (Saudi Itrabia, Kuwait, 1\lgeria, etc.). One of his aides also. ad-

mits that tile Fos-sur-Mer slave-labor steel-petrochemical complex in southern France "would not today be built there, but rather in places like Iran.1I

Minister of Industry l1ichel O'Ornano recently stated that his job consists of nimposing the idea of scarcityll on France's Small industries and of forcing the·public service sector (electrici ty�. gas, etc. ) to finance its investment program "without the state's assistance." The Paris daily Le Figaro is no,,., calling O'Ornano's'" ministry lithe ministry of Reconversion and Relocation.1V

. Rockefeller's French Acquisitions

At this point, the industrial sectors which have fallen (or are about to fall) into Rockefell er' s hands are as follo,"'s:

*Nuclear: lUl Fronch-made nuclear plants arc produced by two firms. The 'first, Compagnie Generale de l'Electricite (CGE)., is headed by Ambroise Roux, a close associate of General Electric (Rockefeller) 1 the second, Creusot-Loire, henceforth 't'1ill be con­

trolled by a triumvirate representing Hestinghouse (Rockefeller), the Shah of Iran, and Belgian interests.

*Co�puter and electronics� The Compagnie Internationale de l'Informatique (CII), the only indigenous computer firm, is con­trolled jointly by CGE (see above) and Thomson-Brandt, a firm with which Giscard d'Estaing has close connections. Until Giscard's election last s�ring, Thomson used to obey Gaullist injunctions to prevent a takeover of the CII. The recent announcement that "Thom­son has enough capital to invest in the U.S.A." and that it is in the process of "internationalizing its assets" makes clear that the firm is reneging on its former commitments and will sell out tho CII to Rockefeller.

*Oil companies: 1\s the bourgeois press has reported over the past few days, the deteriorating position of oil companies Elf-Erap and Total-CFP (due to the fact thF\t they sell mostly in ··francs and buy mostly in dollars at a time,when the dollar is rapidly appreci­ating relative to the franc) now verges on immediate' bankruptcy.

(on the questio.n;of indeJfl.:�g oil 'prices; ',£'or i'ns tance) may have the acquis i tion of Total or Elf shares by KiriCj Faisel as· a practical ' consequence.

*Non-ferrous metals: The Societe Nationale des Petroles d'liquitaine (SNPA), which controls .Elf (along with the French state), also owns 50 per cent of Le Nickel/ �he Rothschild family's former prize possession. If Elf flounders; the SNPA will be directly threatened, with the possible consequence that Le Nickel will be definitively taken over.

*nuto: Simca, controlled by Chrys ler, is bankrupt. The pres­tigious Citroen, which reported a $90 million deficit for the firs t eight ='Ionths of 1974:, is .als o in a tenuous financial position. Ziliout a month ago, its rival Peugeot reportedly was interes teq in taking Citroen ov�,� but it .. ;is dpubtful, given Peugeot' s O�f'Tn market­ing difficulties , that, �e neces s?!-ry funds will·be found for this operation. Ten days ago, a mysterious buyer appeared on the floor of the Paris Bourse and started purchasing Citroen shares like mad.

In addition, Renault, the largest French industrial enterpris e, is now actively involved in V?diversifying" (liquidating) itself. Z\fter announcing that it.has taken over a bicycle firm and that it toTill s erve as liconsultantii to industrial exporters, Renault has made clear that its future lies • • • in the machine-tool sector!

French-nrab Contracts

Besides being rap-idly relocated to the Third Horld, "French" in­dustry is immediately involved in supplying mas sive quantities of infrastructural equipment to the Arab countries. Over the pas t few months, the follo�Ting i1contracts'l have been concluded:

*'ilith Iran: Creusot-Loire will s upply five nuclear fiss ion plants bet�'\1een 1975 and 1980� Renault will build an auto factory capable of producing 100,000 s mall models per year � "Frenchil firms will collaborate in the cons truction of one enormous steel complex.

*T'Jith Iraq: Creus ot-Loire will supply two s teel plants before 1980, CIT-Alcatel (a CGE subsidiary) will equip Iraq with basic telephone lines and dis patching centers, s tarting in 1975.1 Fre.n�� , steel firms will produce an extens ive irrigation s ys tem to improve the quality of the land, also in 1975; at leas t one fertilizer fac­tory will be built near the Kirkuk oil fields.

KISSINGER STOPS IN AFRICA, COUNTERINSURGENCY HEIGHTENS IN ANGOLA

Nov. 9 (IPS)--Winding up his Mideast journey last night in Tunisia, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger met with Portuguese Foreign rlin� ister Mario Soares.

Soares had just completed talks with high-level official Johnny Eduardo of the CIA terrorist countergang, the National Liberat ion Front of Angola, about the process of Angolan Rdecolonization. n . The latter t alks were described as "hig� successful."

In Angola, there have been riots in the city of Luanda osten­sibly caused by police provocations foll�finq t he brutal murder of a white by Africans. The actual story, revealed by the London T!eS Nov. 8, is that 400 prisoners are at large from the southern Ango an Sao Nicolau prison: "Spokesmen for police, military authorities and liberation movements suggested tha� the recontly releasod prisoners might be among those responsible for las� night's violence."

The obviously manipulated riots set the stage for the entrance into the city of sophisticated counterinsurgency units to carry out security operations.

CANNIBAL SOKOLOV PROPOSES "RICE RITUJU,n FOR THE STARVING

Nov. 9 (IPS)--Raymond Sokolov, whose article in Natural History magazine a month ago approvingly included a reCipe using "the brains of any higher mammal,n this month celebrated the beauties of starvation in the second world depression. The magazine is pub­lished by the Museum of Natural History in New York City.

In an article in the NOVember issue of Natural History maga­zine, "The Realm of the Rice Eater,n Sokolov, former foOd editor for the New York Times, wrote:

"In the short term there is probably nothing anyone can do to forestall mass starvation in some rice-dependent areas. But the very least we can do is take a symbolic stance and cook the r�ce

IPS. 84 11/9/74

we do cook with reverence" taking care that each precious gr ain swells to the fullest, but stays firm and separate from the rest. Perhaps �le could even inaugurate our O'tm rice ritual: a moment of silence for those who arc not getting enough of the seed they love almost more than life. II

I nquiries by IPS to the Huseum of Natural Hi s tory after Soko­lov's earlier effort revealed that Natural History is in part pub­licly funded . Thus workers ' tax money bas been used to finance this bestial propaganda celebrating starvation as well a s cannibal­ism. The ongoing CIA pres s campaign to prepare the working class for Rockefeller's depres s ion depends on sick minds like Sokolov's.

SCIILESIN�ER POURS·ARM$ INTO ISRAEL

Nov. 8 (IPS)--At a press conference Nov. 6 Israeli Information Uin­is ter Maron Yariv reportcd that Israel had been "assured of an im­portant amount of additional arms �' and that "an important part of this hardware will get to Israel as s oon as possible. " Yariv, a for.mer general in the Israeli armed forces , thus confirmed a Novo 4 report that Secretary of Defens e James Schlesinger--the I'hard cop" in Rockefeller's Schlesinger/Kissinger duo--had ordered an emergen­cy airlift of military supplies to Israel.

Heanwhile, in Wes t Germany on a tour of NATO facilities, Schlesinger himself yes terday anpounced that some active u.s. units had been "stripped down" in order to carry out the supply effort.

Timed to coincide. with the arrival in Israel of Secretary of State Henry Kis singer, these Defense Department leaks have effec­tively crippled Kissinger's efforts by publicly removing the major u.S. leverage over the trigger-happy Is raelis--the "dthdra\'lal of arms. Given the delicate nature of Kissinger's llpeace" mis s ion to the Middle Eas t, the Schlesinger policy of massive Israeli rearma­ment can have the effect only of undercutting the Secretary of State and pushing the explosive I,Uddle East over the brink into another Rocke;eller-rigged Arab-Israeli war.

I'No Choice But �7ar'l

As U.S. arms poured into Is rael, a s pokes man for the Saudi Arabian government told IPS that Vli f the United States continues to s upport Israel, we will have no choice but to go to war.il He added, without prompting, that lithe Saudi government does not wis h to be­gin a world nuclear war, but we arc motivated by brotherly s upport for the Palestinian cause."

PCF "5 5EGUY CO\rmD .TO SURRENDER flY CnI�"\.C· 5 TOUGH LINE

Nov. 8 (IP5)--The deliberate demoralization of the leadership and hence the working clpss base of the Fre.nch Communist Party (PCF) has proceeded another step. Two \-reeks after French Interior Uinister Poniatowski's sabre-rattling attack against the French Communist Party, Prime Hinister. Chirac delivered a scathing speech 1-10v. 4 from the Senate's lectern. Chirac spoke in the anti-communist vein made famous by Marshall Petain's Vichy government in the 1940s.

The object of Chirac's contrived anger "Tas the alleged "politi­cizationll of the CGT-led strike wave presently developing in the public service sect.or, primarily among postal workers. The CGT, the largest trade union confederation in France, is politically con­trolled by the PCFo

Chirac tried to dramatize \�hat he portrayed as a fundamental conflict between the l'selfishl' aspirations of the strikers and the superior interest of the deified French state:

"Fre are not going to let the nation be dislocated • • • • �1·1e shall never tolerate that anyone calls to qu8stion the institutions and the state through which national sovereignty is expressed • • • •

iiPrivate interests, group solidarities, corporate coalitions cannot prevail over the national interest, i.e., over what is due to the republican state • • • • To speak against the statG, to act aaainst the state to esca e throuoh fraud or throu h violations of o li at ions due b the citizens to the state is to act aoainst the French people' (Emphasis added .

These are precisely the words Petain would use to condemn De Gaulle's "anti-Frenchi! liberation rnovement�

Chirac 0 s speech quickly cO�tJed the CGT I S general secretary and PCF politburo member Georges 5eguy into social-democratic humility. In an open letter addressed to President Giscard, Chirac and the em­ployers' association chairman Ceyrac, Seguy openly confessed his fear of the Prime Hinister's tough language:

"You do not seriously think that our objective is 'to dislocate the nation' by precipitating the country into disorder and upheava1so

BIf our first intention were to bring down the government, we would not insist so much on your accepting sitting down at the nego­tiating table so we can, together, responsibly look for the best possible solutions to the most burning social problems."

And Seguy concludes: iDEe persist in believing that this con­structive and responsible spirit will not renain the sole preroga­tive of the trade unionists.1i

11/8/74 IPS C3

Just a few days before, Seguy had raised a vigorous defense of the 'ICommunists-are-the-revolutionary-vanguard-of-the-working-class Ii

line retailed by the PCF at its Vitry congress. Similarly, it is Seguy himself who, last week, rallied public s ervice workers by pro­claiming loud and clear that "only the Conunon Program [of the united Socialist and Communist Parties--Ed.] can satisfy the legitimate demands of the strikers."

Seguy has surrendered. The CGT is now preparing to end �le job action rather than give it the pol tical mas s strike dimens ion which would guarantee victory.

IPS SPECIAL ELECTION REPORT

LABOR PAATY VOTE TOPS 300',000

U.:1.SS-lU'\SED WOPJmRS' PARTY E1'mRGES DESPITE UNPRECEDENTED ELECTION FRAUD

Uov . 8 (IPS)--The U. S. Labor Party has emerged from the Hov. 5 elec­tions as the mas s-based party of the U.s. working c lass , greatly ad­vancing the strategic position of the working class in both North America and in Europe in its life-or-death struggle against the Rockefeller forces. This is the big story--the only rea l story--of the 1974 elections .

.

By conservative estimates , the Labor Party received at leas t 300,000 votes in the districts in which it had candidates. The exact total will probably never be known because of the massive and systematic fraud which occurred, resulting in the uno fficial tal lies so far available crediting only 68,000 votes for the Labor Party candidates.

We have arrived at this estimation of over 300,000 votes by usingprcc inct-by-prec inct analysis of the voting patterns in those areas where the votes were counted fairly honestly , and then apply­ing to this analysis our knowledge o f Labor Party penetration in the other areas of tho country where the Labor Party ran candidates. T�ile the returns so far are still incomplete , we have been able to arrive at an estimated projection which , i f anything , unders tates the actual case for a massive Labor Party vote.

The highest district-wide propor tion recorded for the Labor Party was 11 per cent in the 3rd Congressional District of Virginia , a total of 7,539 votes . llithin this district , Labor Party candidate �lan Ogden won 15 per cent of the vote in the city of Richmond , and a consis tent 20 per cent to 37 per cent in black working-class and ghetto areas.

In Doston , the second area of the country where the votes ap­pear to have been tal lied reasonably honestly , Labor Party candidate Larry Sherman won 10 per cent in the 9th Congressional Distr ict (9,184 votes) and James Kiggen was credited with 7.6 per cent in

the 8th C.D. (8,300 votes). In race-riot torn , white working-class South Boston, the Labor Party vote was running at 14 per cent to 18 per cent.

In San Francisco , a prec inct-by-prec inct analysis wholly con­firms the pattern o f Boston and Richmond. While the unofficial total vote for the Labor Party School Board candidate was 6 per cent , in the 5th C.D. (predominantly ",orking c lass) the Labor Party

. vote was over 8 per cent. In the Inner !-lission district , a

predominant ly Lat i n ar ea , the Labor Party vote ran cons i s tent ly over 10 per cent , with nany prec incts running 17 par c ent and 19 per c ent . Fur thar out i n the M i s sion D i s tr i c t one precinc t reg i s­tered 4 6 per cent for the Labor Party . I n the outer M i s s io n area Labor Party vote s ran cons i s tent ly between 10 per cent and 15 per cent ; there i s s trong suspi c ion o f fraud i n thi s area meaning tha t the ac tua l vote was between 10 per cent and 2 0 per c ent . I n a North Beach prec inc t where many long shoremen l ive , o ne prec inct reg- i s tered 3 3 per cent for the Labor Party .

Comparing th i s level of votes, in areas whi ch a re no t among the stronge s t i n terms o f Labor Party i nf luence , ,to tha a lmos t neg ligible ii o f f ic i .." l ll tota l s recorded i n �U chigan , Ne�l York a.tate, and South Phj. �L.adelphia- -�lher e Labor Party penetration is the high­e s t in the country- -an overa l l pattern o f mas s ive vote s tea l i ng be­comes obv iou s o I n fac t, the :'abor Party ha s accumu la ted conc lusive documentary evidence that such fraud was commi tted on an unpre ce­dented scale .

Pre- e lection s traw po l l s showed tha t support for the Labor Par ty We S running cons i s tently around 3 0 per cent among the indus­tr i a l worki ng c la s s . It wa s on this bas is that we predicted that we would receive around 1 0 per c ent o f the over a l l vote in urban area s , with higher proportions in work i ng c la s s conc entrations .

The Rocke f e l ler forces were a l s o awar e o f our potent i a l vote . Operating pr imar i ly through the D emocrat ic P arty ma chi nery , ma s s ive vote fraud s were arranged in those area s in which the Labor Party s trength wa s greates t .

Thu s , for example , the Labor P ar ty vote i n Nes t Phi lada lphia wa s about four times as high as the recorded vo ta i n South Phi ladel­phia , a l though it is i n south Phi l adelphia that Labor Par ty penetra­tion wa s much higher . Virtual ly everyone expected c and idate Bernie Salera to wi n a t lea s t 10 per cent , wi th mo s t e s tima tes running be­tween 20 per c ent and 30 per cent. lll ti�ough the voter turnout in thi s d i strict i s said to have run almo s t as high as in 1972 , i n the last e lec tion Congre s sman l1i l l iarn Darre tt and h i s opponent tota l led 177 , 0 00 vote s ; thi s year prelimi nary f igures g ive Barrett and his Repub l ican oppo nent only about 1 27 , 000 votes comb i ned , r a i s ing the interes ti ng ques tion about the whereabouts of the mi s s ing 50 , 0 00 vote s . Thi s amount equ a l s about 2 8 per cent o f the vote , whi ch f i t s qui te well wi th the tremendou s suppor t demo n s tr ated in thi s di s tric t for the Labor P arty campaign .

The mo s t systematic fraud occurred in Michigan and New York States .

Liebowit z was credited with a rid iculous 1 6 2 votes , though he re­ceived 800 in the crooked mayoralty e lections one year ago when Labor Party inf luence 't17as much lower .

I n Syracuse , where City Counci l candidate Janine Scholnick received more pres s coverage than all other candidates combined in the closing days of the election , she was given 1 0 6 vote s out of about 60 , 000 ! Our estimates are that she received an abso lute min­imum of 10 per c ent of the vote , or 6 , 000 vote s .

� curious phenomenon i s that in the upstate industrial areas , a ful l 10 per cent of the ballots are said to have been v1 blank , vo id , or was ted . " I n the las t elec tio n thi s c ategory tota led be­tween 2 per cent and 3 per cent . , It ' s a pretty sure gue s s where the additional 7 per cent .. void II vote's came from.

In 1-1ichigan the Labor Party expected 'the highest number of vote s . The Labor Party campaigns had swept the i ndustrial areas in and around Detro i t , F l int , Pontiac , etc . , and in-plant support for the Labor Party had multiplied enormously in the week before the election . There i s no doubt that somewh,::')re betto-Ieen 10 0 , 0 0 0 and 20 0 , 000 votes were cast for Labor Party candidates in Hichigan , i n­cluding for the gubernator i al c andidate Pete S ignore l l i . Official returns for the Labor P arty were absurdly low 1 even Pete S ignore l­li ' s personal vote appears to have been s tolen !

I n North Carolina , vote s teal ing was probably limited to areas of the highest Labor Party inf luenc e : the c i ties of Char lotte and Greensboro , and probably Robes on County in the Eas t C oas t section of the state o Simply pro j ecting on the basis of previous election results (in which Labor Party penetration was much lower than it is today) , we calculate the actual vote at 15 , 0 0 0 in the s tate .

The table in this report g ives the recorded and the es timated actual votes received by the Labor Party . �le have pro j ected the actua l vote by quite conservative methods , us ing the knowledge of Labor Party penetrat ion to es timate actual percentage votes .

In l 1ichigan, we arrive at a total e s timated vote o f 10 7 , 0 0 0 , or approximately 4 per cent of the tota l vote of 2 , 650, 0 0 0 , in the fol lowing manner . I n the city of Detroit , we es tima te 5 per cent in solid working-c la s s dis tricts , and 2 per cent in middle- c lass areas . This gives us a c ons ervat ive 2 5 , 0 0 0 for Detro i t . For De­troit suburbs (mo s tly working-c la s s ) in Wayne County , we a l low · 8 , 0 0 0 votes or 10 per cent . For Oakland County we es timate 1 8 per c ent for the city of Pontiac (very high Labor Party pe ne tration ) and 10 per cent for the other areas of the county . We take 15 per cent for Hacomb County (Detroit suburbs ) 1 1 8 per cent for F l int and 5 per cent for other areas in Genesee County . Hedium- s i zed downstate cities are estimated at various rates from 2 per cent to 10 per cent . Al lowing one per cent for the rest of the s tate ( 15 , 0 0 0 votes ) we arrive at a tota l o f 107 , 0 0 0 votes for the whole s tate .

Al l European left press is being mobili zed by the ELC to break through the fraudulent news of u1 deaoral i zationll transmitted by Rockefeller press sources in the U . s .
