Atlanta Preparing
For Shriners.

Atlanta, March 14-Aside from
all the pleasure and hurrah and
JOY OF entertaining the National
Convention of Shriners, Atlanta is
going to get one definite and per
manent and far reaching immedi.
ate good out Of their coming.
The mayor and city council have
agreed to widen the "Bottle Neck"
of Peachtree street in order that
the big parade and surging crowds
may be able to circulate.
The 'BottIe Neck" is from a
traffic standpoint the worst feature
of modern Atlanta, and it's disad-
yantages are known not only to
Atlantians but even to visitors who
are casually acquainted with the
clty's topography.
just above the Grand Opera
House, at the point where practical
lY all the traffic from the North
side to the center of the city passes
Peachtree street becomes about a
third narrower than it is anywhere
else, with the result that at the
rush hours, the block IS always
damned with vehicles and traffic
is DELAYED both ways.
The widening will come as the
result OF a conference between
Potentate Forrest Adair OF Yarrab
Temple, Mayor Woodward, and
other prominent citizens.
In discussing the situation with
Mayor Woodward, Mr.. Adair
cited some remarkable facts to
show the overwhelming magnitude
of the convention. For instance,
there will be between so and 70
bands in the parrde-more than
there have ever been at a presiden-
tal inauguration, and more than
have ever participated in the coro-
nation of a king. The parade of
the bands and the Shrine Patrols
will be four miles long. The night
parade in which the Shriners will
march with the Patrols, will be
probably eight miles long.

Atlanta Suffragette
Headquarters

Atlanta March 6-Atlanta suff-
ragettes are taking the lead IN a
movement to organize the woman
suffrage leagues of Georgia into
central and compact body. Macon
and Rome suffragettes have already
lent their aid to the proposed

not militant campaign, which they

Pctrograd, Nov. 5.-The whole
German campaign h crumhaing
rapidly. The southern column
which Is retreating from Poland
has been oyertaken and crushed
below Kicsce. The Russians cap
tured 200 officers and $4,000 men,
and over 100 guns. Even In East
Prussia there has been q sharp
break In the German tactics.
They have abandoned their steady
defensive and begun = rapid re-
treat.
Everywhere except In South Poland
the Germans have been beaten back
to their own frontiers. and the Rus
sian advance down the Vistula has
broken the resistance OF the combined
German and Austrian force which
must now retreat or be cut on.
The forward movement Of the Rus
slams Is now general. and 1t is pre-
d.cted here that the Grand Duke
Nicholas will be in q position to M
wade Siiesia sooner than had been
expected. The unlocked for weakness
OF the Germans In East Prussia and
north and central Poland has put
Russian prospects In the most favor
able light.
The most important result OF the
rapid pursuit by the Russians will Do
that Germany cannot carry out her
reported pan Of sending several army
corps from the east to reinforce the
armies in Belgium and France. The
strength and rapidly Of the Russian
forward movement may deprive the
Germans OF their advantage IN pos-
OF railways.
The German retreat from Poland
has resulted in the transfer Of General
Won H,ndenburgs headquarters to
Cyenstachowa. on the Silesian frontier.
The Russians are using captured can
non against the Germans. Many Mus
sulmans are fighting with the Russian
armies In Poland.
Hindenburg's Retreat.
The new position Of the German
rear guards at the river waythe. al
most at the frontier. and about eighty
miles west OF the Vistnla. indicates
the tremendous retreat OF the German
forces. under General Won linden
burg. The retreat Is considered
especially important because the Rus
slams have been able to recapture such
Industrial centers as Lodz. Petrokov,
Radon. Kielce. and Sandomier.
The Russians have received enor-
nous reinforcements and show no
signs OF surrendering the offensive.

Letters written by President Poins

statements more confident than the
tone of the brief and purposely con-

belief that the allied armies are near
to a great victory. President and

try charges have been broken and
they have been pushed back. The sit

POLICE OFFICIALS DON'T SEEM TO KNOW JUST
WHAT'S GOING ON IN MATTRESSES STRIKE

Chief Gleason down to patrolmen and
wagon drivers, is owned and run by
the Chicago Employers Assn, a
blacklisting, labor-hating crowd
which has in it some of the worst
thieves in Chicago"
Carrie Alexander, president Of the
mattresses union, gave this comment
on the mattresses strike today. And
she added:
''This is fight that will take in
all organized labor in Chicago. If
they stop the mattresses from picket
ing now, they will stop all unions for
all time anywhere in the city from
picketing.
Our girls will stay right on the
line and be thrown in the dirty Har-
rison street station until this is de-
cided one way or the other. They
think they can wear us out and kill
us off by arresting us over and over
again and forcing us to furnish high
bail. Wait. We have any number of
pickets who are ready even to go to
jail when that time comes"
A Day Book reporter went to Chief
Gleason, Capt. Gibbons, Lieuts, Con-
roy and O'Toole, who are ordering
the arrests, and asked them how they
got started on their present policy.
1--WE understand that Judge Windes
dissolved the temporary injunction
granted Knab and the pickets all say
they can't see where they are break
ing the law-so what is the reason
for the big number of arrests the last
week." was asked.
The chief answered: 1--WE been so
busy with other things haven't paid
much attention to this. You'll have
to see the deputy superintendent for
the details. 1 am informed that
crowds collected in front of Knab's
place after Knab put on his own
pickets. Complaints came in from
business men about crowds. And we
did the best we could by arresting the

But isn't it true, chief, that two

for this offense and both were dis
charged?"
81 don't know anything about those
cases. 1 know that in every strike
both sides make charges and arrests
are made. The cases are put on
dockets in court and continued till
the strike is settled. Then all the
cases are non-suited."
Capt. Gibbons referred the reporter
to Lieut.. Conroy as having charge.
Conroy said complaints had come in
from business men around Knab
places. He couldn't remember the
names of any and referred the re-
porter to Lieut.. O'Toole. O'Toole
said there were a lot of complaints,
but the only ones he could recall were
from the Planters Hotel and Bunte's
candy store near the Knab place on
Dearborn. =
''These girls haven't got much re-
spect for the law" said O'Toole. eff
they had they wouldn't go right back
en- the street again and be arrested
twice in the same day."
''These girls, lieutenant" said the
reporter, think they are fighting for

of yours working in one of Knab's
places?"

mine working there" said O'Toole.
do you see they're trying to
change things?" 49,
''Wen, some of them don't behave
very well while they're doing it"
