Strike Plans Issued to
100000 Workers by
United Mine Heads
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Oficial instructions 10 approx
mately 100000 soft coal miners to
strike June 16 unless new wage con-
tracts are signed in the meantime were
issued today by the United Mine
Workers of America.
The strike plans. drafted as re-
suit Of collapse Of the Appala chan
coal wage conference. we're sent to be-
tween 5000 and 5000 union locals
in all the coal-producing States.
John L. Lewis, international presi-
dent of the organization, already has
arranged with the producers for re-
tention of maintenance men in the
mines in the event the strike is called.
Although there still is possibility
of an agreement being reached before
June l6. expiration date of the exist
ing wage contracts. no preparations
for resumption of the parleys have
been announced.
In the meantime, committee Of
leading bituminous coal producers is
racing to complete revision of the
Guffey coal stabilization bill which
they hope will avert the walkout and
provide a satisfactory substitute for
their defunct N. r. A. code.
A draft of the changes proposed
by the operators has been sent to the
United Mine Workers for their con-
sideration and concurrence.

TWOSCH0OL BOARD
MEMBERS RESIGN
Dr.. Hayden Johnson and
Charles H. Houston to
Quit Posts June 80.

Dr. Hayden johnson. president Of
the Board of Education for the past
three years. has informed the District
Supreme Court justices he wishes to
retire from the board at the expiration
of his present term. June 80. He men,
toned the burden of his personal du-
ties as reason for his action.
1t also was learned today that
Charles H. Houston, board member
and dean of the Howard University
Law School. will leave both posts June
80 to become special counsel for the
National Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, with Offices
in New York City. His work will be
in connection with the legal aspect of
equalizing educational opportunity for
the colored race. He said he has OBJ
tanned a years leave of absence from
Howard and will resign from the
School Board.
In response to DR.. Johnson's letter,
Chief Justice Alfred A Wheat, who,
together with the other District Su-
preme Court justices. appoints the
Board of Education. wrote that Or.
Johnson's wishes would be respected
although the court regretted his de-
cision and deeply appreciated his serv-
ices.
On Bar Committee.
Besides heading the School Board
DR.. johnson is chancellor OF Ma
tional University and was member of
the Admissions Committee OF the Dis
trict Bar Association which is to oe
merged with the Grievance Committee.
He will continue as National Univer-
sity chancellor.
He has long been recognized as one
of the city's outstanding legal author
tiles, and his three-year service on
the board has been marked with pro-
cedural reform aimed at stricter COM
pliance with the spirit and letter OF
the laws affecting the school system.
Committee activities of the board
have been brought out from behind
closed doors and school business re-
routed so that all matters come be-
fore the board in open meeting be-
fore being referred to committee. q
reversal of former procedure.
Wants Plan TO Continue.
In making known his intention to
retire, DR.. johnson expressed the
the earnest hope these changes would
be continued in force by the remain
ing board members.
Il think 1t is essential for best ad-
ministration of school affairs that we
do not drift back to the old system,
he declared. "The conduct of the pub
lie schools is public business and
should be treated as SUCH"
DR.. johnson also was largely in
strumental in shelving the so-called
"Prettyman BILL" which would have
placed the Board of Education and
other semi i-independent agencies
under the direct control of the Dis
trict Commissioners, creating the
possibility that the schools might be
opened to political spoilage.

CA|LLAUX CHOSEN
To DEFEND FRANC
| ast-Minute Shift Is Made
by BouiSSon Before
Seeing Lebrun.
By the Associated Press

PARIS. June 1.-The golden
franc" cabinet of Fernand Bouisson
went into action today after last
minute shift which gave Joseph Call
laux, with a reputation as money
wizard the portfolio of finance
Caillaux, now faced with a task of
great responsibility in the present
monetary crisis, replaced Maurice
Palmade, who withdrew from the
government lineup.
Paul Jacquier, minister of labor in
the fallen government of Pierre
Etienne Flandin. was given the agri-
culture portfolio in place of Henri
Roy. whom Bouisson was unable to
reach last night. Caillaux earlier had
been designated minister without
portfolio.
Assemble in B0uiss0n'S Office.
The last-minute changes were an
nounced when the ministers assembled
at Bouisson's office preparatory to a
visit to President Albert Lebrun at
Elysee Palace.
The formation of the cabinet greatly
relieved the gold tension. The big
Withdrawals of the metal lessened
considerably yesterday and almost
ceased today.
Small purchasers of one or two
bars, who have been lined up at the
Bank of France courtyard, were fewer
yesterday and almost negligible today.
A quieter feeling was shown by the
active shorts demand for francs in
the banking market this morning.
causing the franc to rise at noon to
1914 to the United States dollar after
opening at 1918. The British pound
likewise was lower.
Powers Virtually Assured.
The new premier completed his
government formation at lis am.
today.
The new lineup of ministers is vir-
tually assured of the powers denied
Flandin.
The cabinet differs little from
Fiandin's in the principal posts, al
though 1t Is slightly more to the Left
because Of the inclusion of the for
mer Communist Louis Frossard as
minister of labor. It also has four
ministers of state without portfolio IN
place Of Flandin's two.

of those communities were safe.
Radio reports told of IL deaths at
Benkelman, six reported deaths at
Alma and another Associated Press
staff writer listed % persons missing

DR.. J. NJ. Willis. who was up all
