LONDON, May 12.-The miners
executive this afternoon rejected
the trades union councils proposals
for a solution of the coal miners dis.
pute. They explained that in calling
off the general strike. the trades
union council took sole responsibility.
Withdrawal OF the general strike
order was announced after meeting
at Premier Baldwin residence, 10
Downing St, between members Of
the Government and representatives
Of the trades union council.
A. J. Cook, secretary of the miners
federation, soon afterward told the
United Press that the coal strike
would continue. 1t is presumed that
negotiations to end the coal strike
will begin at once.
There is no change in the sit
uation as far as we are concerned. "
Cook said.
There will be no resumption OF
work by the miners until a delegate

OSLO, May 12.-The Amundsen-
Ellsworth-Nobile polar dirigible
Norge is proceeding excellently, ac.
cording to reports received here this
afternoon. These reports said the
dirigible possibly would land tonight
at Nome, Alaska.
Messages received here indicated
that the fog which the Norge en-
countered in the vicinity of the Pole
was sufficient to make observations
difficult.
u. 5. Flag Dropped
AS the dirigible passed the Pole,
these messages said, the American,
Italian and Norwegian flags were
dropped overheard.
Fog prevented close search for the
American flag which Commander
Byrd dropped a few days ago when
he flew to the pole in his airplane.
Up to the time the pole was passed
no land has been sighted-only a
vast eXpanse of polar ice, according
to the advices reaching here. From
there today the Norge is believed to
be proceeding westward. flying over
region heretofore unexplored and
in which Amundsen and his compan-
ions hope to find land if any exists,
in the region of the pole.
Left Tuesday
The history-making flight started
at 10 a IN. Tuesday when the Norge
cast off from her moorings at Kings
Bay, where it had flown from Rome
The ship sailed away to the north
while the populace of Kings Bay
cheered and the orchestra Of the
Norwegian steamship Heimdal played
the Norwegian national anthem, in
honor of Amundsen.
Then began the romance of the
trip. 1t was the airship, one OF the
most advanced developments Of
twentieth century transportation
plawing through regions which
have been unknown to man since
history begun.
Radio Used
With the ship went the radio, the
most advanced development Of
Twentieth Century communication
to keep the world informed of the
progress of the flight. 1t was the
first time in history of Polar ex-
ploration that an expedition had
been able TO keep its base and it's
homeland informed of its progress.
