Coal Strike Throws Thou.
sands Of Families Upon
Mercy Of Charity
fMIy SeVenty.Flve Per Cent
Of All Workers are Now
Among the Idle
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
LONDON, March 2Q.-Distress
throughout the industrial districts in
the United Kingdom because of the
national coal strike. which made idle
million miners and over a million
and 4 half of other workers is acute.
While delegates Of miners and
mine owners are discussing with pol
iticians the minimum wage bill, wo-
men, children and workers them.
selves in many places are suffering
extreme poverty.
Appeals are constantly reaching
London, which appears to be the
.laast Affected Of the large cities, for
assistance.
The Earl of ,Harrowby, who has
Just returned from q: tour of. the pot
ter district, says thousands Of chill
dren in the district are being fed
from charitable funds. In this region
alone twenty thousand miners are on
/ strike, and the lack of coal has
thrown out Of work sixty thousand
potters, to whose number must be
added thousands Of general laborers,
porters, railroad men and barge men
whose livelihood depends on the out
put of the potteries
Prevailing conditions in the Er-
wash valley, a great hive Of indus
try, stretching from Nottingham to
Chesterfield, serves as an example OF
the conditions elsewhere. Here sew
enty,ave per cent Of the workers of
all trades are idle and unlike miners,
these men have no strike pay, and
their families are thrown On charity.
Wales is suffering equally WITH
England. Only three tin plant mills
working in the whole country, and
every other industry is affected.
The cotton mills are closing rapid
ly throughout Lancashire. Railway
trafiic returns available for the past
week show decline of the receipts
to $4,000, in addition to
81, ,500. 900 for the previous week. i

 LEAGUE OF WOMEN WORKERS
Miss Hamilton, National Secretary,
 Guest of Norwich Friends.

With 15.0G0 girls in it's membership, the National League of Women Work CTS, whose secretary, Miss Jean Ham, ilton, is the guest of Norwich friends, In an organization which can show an immense amount of helpful work oden in its IA years of existence and an ever growing extension of endeav- or in each new year.
 In speaking Thursday evening of the work of the league, Miss Hamil- ten referred to the record of gain which the league can show for the started, bringing the total enrolment of clubs up to 40 and about 2200 Eew members joined in the past year. With headquarters in New York, the league stretches in its membership from Augusta. Me. to Baltimore, MI, and extends as far west as Cleveland, Ohio. It has six secretaries.
 The league was organized primarily for providing wholesome social Op- portunities for it's members, but 1t also has edcuaticnal classes and develops the girls through requiring of them the executive work that is necessary for the conduct of their individual clubs. It is of the work of the league which Miss Hamilton will speak when she addresses the women of Norwich at the Norwich club this morning. Touching upon the work of special clubs, it is shown how great a benefit they derive from the body of advice that comes to them through affiliation with all their sister clubs of the league

Problems In School Consolidation
Acting School Visitor Foss Speaks Before SocassPonts Out Questions Be Settled When Districts Consolidate Here-SeIectmen Must Announce Number on Committee Next Month

The members of Norwich local, so cialist party, heard an instructive and timely discourse on School Consohda- ton by Acting School Visitor Frank H. F'oss Thursday evening in their rooms In the Stead building. MT. Fess said In part:
 There are under the present system in Norwich over 80 members of school boards. Of the children attending school here only one third of the pu- pills come under the supervision of the town school committee and school vis- itor, the Falls, West Chelsea, Greene vile and Central districts being out side their Jurisdiction.
 Of the many questions which will arise as the result of the voting for consolidation by the town, the first will be the makeup of the school com mittee, The selectmen are considering the question of the number of which the committee will be composed and must announce their decision In May. The law 1rovides for a committee of three, siG, nine or twelve persons. At @ recent meeting of the school boards of the town 1t was the general opinion that the committee should consist of an even number so that either six or twelve persons will probably be chosen. Letters which the selectmen have re- ceiyed from other towns adopting con- solidation show that six is the usual number, as with a small committee greater efficiency may be attained. Appropriations by Town Meeting.
 All appropriations under the consoli- dation system will be made at the ! town meeting, without first going through the district meeting. The new committee will have all the powers which high school, town and district | committees would nave Under the new system in a town the size of Nor wich one superintendent of schools would be sufficient. In New Haven the | size of the town requires an assistant 1 superintendent in each of the six or | seven districts.
 The school committee will have to l decide the division of districts and To- l cation of schools. It will be necessary | to determine how the schools will be graded; whether there will be complete l grammar school couses in each of the schools or whether it will be necessary Tor the scholars to go to another school to complete their common schoo | education.
 Go Irsss Will Be Uniform.
 One great advantage over the pres ent system will be that courses ot study all over the town may be mad, uniform. At present there are as many courses as there are schools. Tht question of manual training music anC kindergartens will come under the su | pervision of the committee. Many children have natural ability in draw ing or music and their only chance |, discover such talent lies in the schools l as often parents cannot afford music O | drawing lessons for the children.
 The majority of principals favor long list of text books. as that whicl is given little attention in one 6ool may be explained in detail in the next But many people cannot afford s, many books; we don't want many tex
