The report Of the sinking OF the
Arabic, which was bound from Liy.
erpcol to New York, came as shock
TO the officials here, in view OF the
terms of the note despatched a month
ago to Berlin, which has not yet been
answered.
While the officials have not spoken
in their Official capacity, II is known
that they have expressed the opinion
that, even n the list Of dead OF. the
Arabic contains the names Of no Amer
leans. the fact that the attack upon
her was made without warning and
contrary to the laws OF humanity and
international convention, makes the
action on the part OF Germany one
deliberately unfriendly's to the Unit,
ed States.
Many Supposed Lost.
Awaiting an official report on the
incident, the attitude Of the admins
tration has not been indicated. but
II is believed likely that, II the re-
port shows that any Americans
aboard the liner have lost their lives,
the administration viii at once recall
Ambassador Gerard and hand Ambas-
sador Won Bernstorff his passports,
severing diplomatic relations with
Germany
Only meager reports have been re-
ceiyed, but 1t Is known that the dead
are practically confined to the crew.
ndvices last night being that all the
passengers but SIX had been account
ed for. .s
Erltons Stirred.
The London press dispatches state
that the torpedoing of the Arabic has
taken precedence In the news over all
the other war reports. despite the
fact that these reports continue to
tell OF German advances in Russia Of
q nature that may soon affect the de-
velopments in the other theaters OF
the war.

Meanwhile, your advertising manager probably, has
certain plan mind The agency looks over this plan
Undoubtedly they suggest changes They offer amend
ments based their experience with other articles
whether similar otherwise And them after all the de-
tails of analysis have been settled you authorize your
agency to begin to place your contracts.
For instance suppose you have decided to spend

comprise 100 different newspapersan average Of $500
each The agency will make contracts with those news
papers in Your behalf They agree to your behalf
many inches of space in each town. They also make
contracts with the street railway advertising companies
for certain number of cards in these certain towns
you were to go to these newspapers direct and buy
$4,000 worth of space it would you $4,000 anyway
and to make these contracts would take lot your time
recognized agency however allowed from 10 per cent
to 10 per commission by the newspapers on all out Of
town business secured by the agency That is where the
agency gets its pay Therefore, as rule you can get
without extra expense, the service Of an agency which
would mean their counsel in building your plan and their
aid in creating copy and art work, well as all the
clerical labor that necessary All this would not cost
you cent more than if to try to place your ad

So your advertising manager decides in conference
with your agency the best course of action Then
they arrange the dates for insertion Of the advertise
ments. II your advertising department. simply had t.

And So in this creation of booklets and In the exec.
