Unable to implement Constructor Overloading in an inherited class. Plz Help

Question

Please do compile the program in in order to notice the error.
class EmpDet
int id,age;
String name;
String gender;
  EmpDet(int id1,String name1,int age1,String gender1)
    this.id = id1;
    this.name= name1;
    this.age= age1;
    this.gender = gender1;
   void Id_Name()
   System.out.println("EmpId : "+id+" and Name : "+name);
   void Gender_Age()
    System.out.println("Employee is a "+gender+" and is "+age+" years old.");
  class Employee extends EmpDet
       String locality;
    Employee(int a,String b,int c,String d)
         super(a,b,c,d);
    Employee(String locality1)// Constructor overloading. My problem.
         this.locality = locality1;
  void locality()
    System.out.println("The employee resides at "+locality);
   void DiplayStmt()
        System.out.println("DISPLAYING EMPLOYEE DETAILS..");
        System.out.println("******************************");
   public static void main (String[] args)
    Employee det = new Employee(010,"John",32,"M");
    Employee addr = new Employee("Tambaram");
    addr.DiplayStmt();
    det.Id_Name();
    det.Gender_Age();
    addr.locality();
  }

Hey Thanks.. I guess what you said makes sense.
I was fiding it hard to agree that there needs to be a match between the Constructors of the Base Class and the Sub Class. I altered the program by adding a constructor in the Base class and using the super(0 function in the Sub class and that seems to work..
class EmpDet
int id,age;
String name;
String gender;
EmpDet(int id1,String name1,int age1,String gender1)
     this.id = id1;
this.name= name1;
this.age= age1;
this.gender = gender1;
EmpDet(String addr)
     System.out.println("Address is implemented in SubClass");
void Id_Name()
System.out.println("EmpId : "+id+" and Name : "+name);
void Gender_Age()
System.out.println("Employee is a "+gender+" and is "+age+" years old.");
class Employee extends EmpDet
     String locality;
Employee(int a,String b,int c,String d)
     super(a,b,c,d);
Employee(String locality1) // Constructor Overloading
     super(locality1);
     this.locality = locality1;
void locality()
System.out.println("The employee resides at "+locality);
void DiplayStmt()
     System.out.println("DISPLAYING EMPLOYEE DETAILS..");
     System.out.println("******************************");
public static void main (String[] args)
Employee det = new Employee(010,"John",32,"M");
Employee addr = new Employee("Tambaram");
addr.DiplayStmt();
det.Id_Name();
det.Gender_Age();
addr.locality();
