March 28, —Work- ing women in Atlanta offices de clare they must be 50 per-cent more efficient than men performing identically the same service in or der to get the same salaries paid to the men. There are some exceptionally valuable business women who draw handsome salaries, but the average run are able to show, they claim, that the modern busi ness world has not yet reached the point, at least locally, where a woman doing a -man’s work is paid a man’s wage.

IGERHANY STRUGGLE WITH PROPORTIONS Atlanta, Ga. March 28, —If any person thinks that war between the United States and Germany which is now generally regarded ascertain will he for the United States a war on paper, w.th no bloodshed and no expensa, he is yery much mistaken, as predicted by United States Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, who is here for a short rest, and as borne out by recent developments in Washing ton in the last few days. War with Germany will mean war on a huge scale, according to Senator Smith. It will mean that the United States government will sanction loans of prodigious sums of money to the Allies, probably going as high as a billion or even two billions of dollars. It will mean that the tjaval forces of the United Satet will co operate with those of England and France to sweep German submarines from the seas and keep open the hints of steamer travel. It will mean that trie coasts of the! United States will be guarded more close ly than they have been since the Spanish-American war. And it will probably mean that the U nited States will callJfor a voN unleer army of at least a million men and train these men for a year lor the purpose of sending to France if the Allies have not. been able in that length of time to bring the German Kaiser £p terms of peace. It will take a year, as Senator Smith points out to train an army of recruits to the point where they are ready toi activoservice, and it will be that long before the Allies feel the need of men, assuming that the war will last another twelve months.

Atlanta, Ga, March 28, —That a largtv amount of money wilt he spent lor advertising in 19.17 than ever before is asserted by the heads of the large advertiseing agencies ot Atlanta, which are making plans for a great year’s business. And it is a significant fact, to which they call attention, "that advertisers who formally spent most of their money in the maga zines of national circulation are now buying more and more space in the newspapers.
