POLAND SUFFERS
COAL SHORTAGE In
SPITE OF TREATY
Failure of German to De-
liver Rolling Stock and
Fuel Hampers Industry.
By Special Correspondent to
The Washington Herald.

WARSAW, Jan. 4 (By maI) Dur
ing the last few days the commits
sion appointed by the league of ma
tions 10 investigate the Wilma af-
fair and TO conduct the plebiscite
has left. for Wilma to begin this
investigation.
TIE conference in Warsaw be-
tween delegations from the Kovno
and Polish governments suddenly
came to a deadlock over the ques-
ton OF the territory to be included
in the pleblscite. The Lithuanians
held out strongly for the exclusion
Of the. city of Wilma and its dis
trict from the plebiscite area The
Poles, on the other hand, refused
10 agree to the exclusion of this
city and the final decision was left
to the league OF nations commission.
Reports from Grodno indicate that
negotiations have been taking place
between political groups in the cities
of Kovno and wilma, and it is said
that the Lithuanian Socialist party.
as we'll as the political groups in
KoYno. are inclined to give the
broadest guarantees to Polish resi-
dents of Lithuania. They even pro-
pose that a canton state be estab-
lished OF which the capital would
be wilma.
Need Locomotives.
One of the most dificult problems
which the Polish government has
to deal with is that of transporta-
| ton. This affects not only indus
try, by limiting the deliveries Of
coal and raw materials. but it like
wise makes the Improvisation of the
different districts extremely diff
cult.
The limited amount Of railway
stocks available has frequently pre-
vented the prompt distribution of
those supplies of foodstuffs which
are available. Under the Versailles
treaty Poland was to receive from
Germany 1.54O locomotives. 2.40t
passenger cars. and 10000 freight
cars, but up to the present time
only little over half OF this rolling
stock has been delivered. In order
ernment has purchased $50 locomo-
tives from the Baldwin Company,
of Phjladelphia, and negotiations are
! in progress for othes purchases, pay
ment for which, on account of the
fuhfavora6le rate OF exchange viii
be made in rock oil, and the amount
of future purchases will be de-
termined by the supplies of this
commodity available.
A locomotive factory has been es-
| tablished in GRliCia not far from
the Dombrowa coal district. This
| plant, 1t is expected, will be able
to produce $50 locomotives yearly.
which is about half the require
nents OF the Polish government. An
| rider for 1900 locomotives for de-
livery over a period OF ten years
has already been placed with this
| firm, and delivery is to begin this
year.
Shipments Held Up.
There has been no Improvement in
the coal situation. Poland. as at
present constituted requires ap-
proximately 100000 tons monthly.

They might say that bobbed hair

Her hair is not escaping from re-

II Is not immodest. 1t is becom-

Ii may not have the womanly
charm Of long hair. but in Industries
and in business girl workers are
workers. They are judged by their
efficiency and not by their charm,
or are supposed 20 be. and generally
ii is through efficiency and not sex
that they keep their positions.
There is, we believe a tendency
among girl workers to get rid Of
incumbrances. Ultimately IL may
bring the woman in overalls. There
are some already. but women gener-

chamber che saw form beside her,
she felt hairy fingers upon her and a
hairy breast against which she was
being drawn. Jad-ben-Otho. this was
no dream. And then she screamed
and tried 10 fight the thing from her;
but her scream was answered by a
low grovi and another hairy hand
seized her by the hair OF the head

legs and dragged her from the cave
