Dunno; works fine here.  Here's what I did, based on your report:

    $ cat *.py
    # boo.py
    import WS
    def init(name):
            print name
            WS.SetRunMode(1)

    # main.py
    import boo
    def main():
            boo.init('something')
    main()

    # WS.py
    def SetRunMode(n):
            print n

    $ python main.py
    something
    1
    $ 

Try using exactly these files and see if it works.  If it doesn't,
tell us what happens.  If it does, modify these files a bit at a
time to make them closer to your files, testing the result after
each change, and let us know at what point it breaks.
