For Joining Strike
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press. o
VALENCIENNES, France, Jan. l.
AS punishment for participating
in the November general strike, $50
Polish miners and their families
who long ago had lost their polish
citizenship, were ordered today to
leave France.
The Poles, in France for more
than 20 years, were told to quit the
country by tomorrow They face six
months in prison If they ignore the
expulsion notice.
Most of them, jobless since No
vember 80, remained in Valencien-
mes while the French-Polish organ
izations appealed to the government
either to rescind the order or grant
delay because none Of the coun-
tries bordering France would permit
the Poles to cross the frontier.
Oncials said the miners were
warned before the strike that they
ran the risk Of expulsion II they
joined the movemsnt.

the girls it wasn't thick enough" !"
Mr.. Schneider said.
A short time later he came back
and noticed a hole in the ice."
Two pairs of shoes lying on the
bank, removed when the girls
donned their skates, and two tam
oshanters floating in the water set
police and volunteers at work with
graphing hooks.
The operations were watched by
scores of nearby residents, and bon
fires flickered as the bodies were
brought to the surface.
The girls were students at St.

downe and were scheduled to return

How the Boss
|Con BeHero
To Secretary

A boss may be wizard in busi-
ness DEAL He may have the lowest
golf score at his club. But is he
q hero to his secretary?
J Miss Gladys Torson, a secretary
In the c. c. c. division of the Bureau
of Biological Survey, outlined a
formula for bosses which appears in
, this weeks issue of the Saturday
Evening Post.
Here are a few of the salient
points in her program for making
heroes of bosses:
If the boss doesn't know a comma
from a semi-colon, he shouldn't 7
bluff his secretary into thinking he's
first-class grammarian. She
knows differently.
He shouldn't start debating five
minutes before closing time. >Nor
) should he dictate his ideas through
a big black cigar. She can't under
stand what he's saying.
= And most important, he should
be intelligent and assume his secre-
tary has normal intelligence too.

La Guardia Announce,
Plan 10 End Strike
Of 1900 Hackers
All Parties Agree to
Election to Decide
Boreoin Agent
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Mayor La
Guardia today announced a plan
to end the strike of 1000 taxicab
drivers, called by the Transport
Workers Union &C. I. o..
After a conference at city hall
with representatives of the taxicab
operators and of the taxi unions,
the Mayor said all parties had
agreed to State Labor Relations
Board election to determine the
mems collective bargaining agency.
The election, he said, would be
held tomorrow night and the strike
called off Friday morning, pending
negotiations between employers and
employees.
Many independently operated cabs
still rolled around town, and it was
mainly at railroad stations and
ferry terminals that the shortage
of cabs was noted.
b Bricks Hurled at Cab.
Shortly after the walkout began
yesterday afternoon, Queens police
said four or five men in a sedan
hurled brickbats at the cab of a
Struck company.
Cruising groups also were reported
to be warning drivers at taxi stands
to park their cabs "or you'll be
sorry"
Five thousand individually owned
cabs were unaffected, and officials
of the major taxi lines claimed so
to 80 per cent of their cars con-
tinued in service.
Union spokesmen insisted at least
7,400 cabs were stalled in garages.
Drivers Demands.
Union demands include renewal
of closed shop agreement, increase
from 42l2 to between As and so
per cent in drivers commissions,
one-week vacations with pay, a
nine-hour day and elimination of
racketeering in the industry"
In telegram to Mayor La Guardia,
N. M. Seymour, president of the
Terminal System, Inc, largest cab
company here, charged the strike
resulted from a dispute between
two rival labor organizations"
Mr.. Seymour said that 80 per
cent of the Terminal Systems en-
ployes had petitioned the State
Labor Board for a collective bar
gaining election. T. w. U. officials,
he added, called the strike to avert
= the election after he had informed
them the company would negotiate
a contract with the organization
certified as the winner.

Hated Chore

SOUTHERN football coaches have
- revealed that they would like to
eliminate spring football practice
but like the man who held on to the
tigers tail-they don't dare let go.
Spring football practice is a
dreary spectacle. The players have
never been enthusiastic about it, but
turn out because they're afraid
some hard-plug cling individual, who
may have less ability but who shows
more interest in the game, will be
on the first string lineup in their
place the next fall.
Coaches probably don't deserve
much sympathy. They are paid
for year around work, but the play
ers, at least theoretically, receive
nothing for their services.
The Southern coaches, neverthe-
less, have good point. Naturally.
spring practice gives the squad a
head start on signals and forma-
tons. But if all schools abandoned
the spring practice season and
started from scratch they all would
have the same chance. And it would
relieve the possibilities for injury
during the early season.
