LABOR LEADERS ARE

COUNTY G9AH0 JURY

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 22.-What il
claimed to be the thread of a gigantic
conspiracy to dynamite street car
barns, hydro electric plants and other
big properties of the local street car

WOMEN WANT RECOGNITION IN
CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATIONS

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 22.-What rec
ignition are the women of Georgia 60
ing to get for the part that women
played in the reelection OF President
Wilson?
Although the women of this state do
not enjoy the right of suffrage, which
has been granted the women in many
western states, they were equally as
ardent in their support of President
Wilson as if they had been allowed to
vote, and they have taken the cue OF
the national suffrage organization in
demanding recognition of their sex in
the civil service and other branches of
government employment.
Georgia women performed a genuine
service in the cause of democracy
during the recent campaign, having
raised several thousand dollars for
the Wilson fund, and they are now
taking part in the effort to raise Geor-
gas share of the fund needed to pay
off the deficit incurred by the demo-
cratic national campaign committee in
its legitimate expenses.
OF course, the suffragists of Geor-
gia, and no other Georgia womel,
are going to embarrass the president
or the party by any demands, nor do
they intend to put themselves in the
attitude of eXacting a bargain for their
interest in the campaign, but they
will go on record as favoring an equal
showing for women in the civil service
examinations.
