10 Vacancies For Sixty
 Girls

Next Wednesday night, sixty-two girls will be graduated from the City Normal school. These girls have spent two years of special study fitting themselves as teachers for the schools of the city of Bridgeport. To date there are but ten known vacancies in the school system for next year, there- by leaving ffty-two girls with diplo- mas stating that they are qualified to teach in the school system of this city. The diploma which they will receive is not recognized in any other place but in this city and their chance of obtaining work as teachers any other place is slight.
 This acute situation which is ap- parently an injustice to the girls will give a concrete example of what made necessary the discontinuance of the City Normal school which becomes effective next year.
 The raduating class of the High school who ha:Ne completed the four years Normal course will have the opportunity of continuing their course in this city for one year, after which time they will go to New Haven where the completion of their course will mean the receiving of a diploma recognized in any part of the state.

 La Toilette was said to have recefv- ed assurances of support rom noe only a number of his Republican col leagues. but from a large prop ortfon on the Dernocratio side, where Sena- tor Walsh of Massachusetts. was threatening to make a similar motion.
 we have wateed and delayed: we have argued back and forth about the soUrSoe from which to derive the m oney to pay the additional oo1npen- La Toilette. '"The hour has struck to stop Sxu5bSHng and delaying about giving a suuare deal

 .-No postpone the bonus until after the passage oS the tariff bill simply means further sfdestepping and delay. I will not support such a plan. It Is a palpable attempt to trick our sx- service men again Into the beite& that they arc really to be cared for.

By WARREN w. WHEATON

By WARREN w. WHEATON
 Cincinnati, June 17-(INS) )- Organized labor's first delft move to throw it's Iegions into the big industrial conflict for a 'show down fight is under way here. today. A gigantic coalition of coal miners and railroad workers, to meet the believed inevitable railroad strike, is expected to result from conferences initiated by railroad workers heads.
 (Awaits Sanction.)
 A combination of these two power full unions, one already on strike and the other facing a strike, awaits only the sanction of John l.. Lewis presi- dent of the United Mine Workers.
 In the proposal labor leaders at tending the American Federation of Labor convention also see efforts to compel the Big Four railroad broth erhoods to take a definite stand as to support possible joining the rail- road shop crafts if they strike.
 To date the Big Four'' have ap- peared reluctant to indicate approval of the proposed strike.
 The miners are in a. receptive mood to join the railroad workers morally, financially and in whatever other way co-ordinated effort would benefit, one high official in the miners union de- cIared today.
 Belief that the Big Four will eventually cast it's lot with the min CTS and railroad shopcrafts men, if the coalition is effected, is based on the fact that in Chicago in Febru- ary last they were a party to an agreement entered into by the miners and railroad shopcrafts pIedgtng a combination
