While the reformers and prohibition
lists have been busy urging the move

look at it from any reform angle, but
merely Us a means of Tightening the
country's resources for the long

CLOSING OF SALOONS OVER
NATION IS CONSIDERED

From Washington comes the re-
port that the closing of saloons
throughout the nation for the dura-
ton of the war is a possibility. The
question has been discussed in ad-
ninistration circles and several high
officials are said to be in favor Of the
idea.
Supporters of the plan say that if
the country is placed under martial
law the closing of the saloons will
Immediately follow. They argue that
the saving Of money spent in saloons
will leave the people in better .finan-
ciaI condition to face the hard times
and high prices which are sure to hit
the country by next winter if the war
continues.
Those fighting the closing of the
saloons argue that If they are closed
It will cut off an important source Of
government revenue that cannot be
replaced. They believe that the sa-
loon can be turned into a genuine
benefit to the government by inoreas-
ing the taxes on whisky, beer and
other liquors.

PROTEST ARSENAL
WORK BY WOMEN
Federal Employees Send Me-
mortal to Department
Heads.

Secretary OF War Baker and Secre-
tary OF Labor Wilson today received
a letter OF protest against the employ
ment of women in Government arsen-
ais at a lower scale of wages than is
paid to men. The letter was signed
by H. NJ. McLarin, president of the
Federal Employees Union.
The protest is aimed at discrimina-
tion against women, who are to re-
ceive from $1.36 to 1924 a day, where
as the rate at present paid mem
ranges from S2.24 to $2.G4 day.
In his letter President McLarin
says:
1--WE wish to protest against this
discrimination and respectfully ask
that in the employment OF men and
women in these arsenals and else
where that women be given equal pay
for equal work. To do otherwise
would be to place into operation a
most unjust system OF paying women
less than men for the same amount of
work, merely because the women
would, through motives of patriotism
or because they were in great need of
profitable work, accept positions at
wages lower than those paid to men.
I'VE hope you will see the justice
of our request that no such discrim-
ination be made and consent to treat
men and women alike"

Fifteen KNOWN DEAD
Alabama and Georgia Towns Report
Many Are Injured.

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 24-The Gulf
States emerged today from the most
severe tornado this year, and early
reports that dribbled into Atlanta in
dicate that many persons were killed
or injured in the collapse of build
ings.
Dispatches from Sylacauga, Hollins,
Midway and Stewartsville, Ala, stated
that seven persons lost their lives,
most Of them school children who
were trapped in wrecked class rooms.
Four cOlOred persons were reported
dead at Whitsett, Ala.
Lithonia, Ga, telephone messages.
coming in over hastily reconstructed
wires, gave two colored persons dead
in early reports, while six children
lost their lives in Georgetown, Miss,
IT was stated.
Owing to hampered communication
with the stricken district, II was i'm
possible early today to get more
than bare details of the tornado.
Hundreds are reported injured,
some of them seriously, but cOnfirma-
tion Of these figures could not be had
here. Dispatches indicated that the
loss of life was confined mostly to the
poorer district, where houses of flimsy
construction collapsed. The tornado
evidently cut a path directly across
Georgia, Mississippi, and Alabama.

SPY SCARE IN ARMS PLANT
Inspector Arrested for TamperIne
With Shells.

CHESTER, Pa, Feb. 24.-The great
Eddystone ammunition works here
employing 10000 men, was the scene
today of German spy" scare, when
George KOOb, an inspector, was ar
rested; charged with tamperinG with
the gauge Of loaded shells leaving the
finishing department.
Guard lines were frightened in the
plant Immediately and twenty en-
ployes arrested for carrying matches
and whiskey into the yards in defiance
OF rules. The plant has extensive
contracts for munitions for Russia.
Captain of Detectives Heffner de-
clared Koob admitted the shells were
not perfect and that a paper which
he dropped during examination indi-
Gated he was in the employ Of a Ger.
man detective agency. Koob started
to work in the plant about two weeks

LAWYERS HAVE VISITOR
FatIsued Bull Pup Adopts District
Bar Association.

Hoticeably fatigued and footsore,
he entered the quiet precincts of the
Bar Association library in the Dis
trict Supreme Court building shortly
after noon. Much to the amazement
Of legal luminaries silertIy plying
their quest for authorities" he
stretched himself lengthwise on the
red plush carpet.
Ere long a group OF curious court
attaches end lawyers were crowded
around the door, viewing the pros
trate form
Where did he come from?" whis-
pered one of.the group.
Probably a tramp" whispered an
other.
He's evidently white" said a third.
Closer inspection proved that he
was white, large, weIl-formed, col
1arless and tagless bull pup. Where
he came from no one knows. What
his name is also remains a question.
But whatever his past, he bids fair
10 become the adopted mascot of the
District Bar Association, providing
that 1t does not subsequently develop
that bylaws of the organization pro-
hibit the adoption OF such pets.

NO STRIKE, SAY CHEFS
Hotel Workers Deny They Know Of
WaIkout Threat.

There is no danger of the rumored
walk-out or a strike of hotel or res
taurant cooks on March 4, according
to Washington hotel managers seen
today.
Several chefs in the hotels also were
interviewed. but they said they knew
nothing concerning a strike. Agita-
ton by labor leaders was alleged as
the cause for rumors that the hotel
chefs would walk out on March 4, pro-
vided certain demands, to be present.
ed between now and then, are re-
fused.
A mass meeting of white cooks
has been called for tomorrow after
noon in the Perpetual building, Elev.
enth and E streets northwest, and
another for colored cooks, to be held
in True Reformers' hall, Twelfth and
L streets.
No chefs seen today, however,
knew anything concerning the mass
meetings.
In September, 1912. the cooks in
Washington, It is stated, decided that
on March 4. 1917, they would demand
a ten-hour working day, six working
days a week, a 10 per cent increase in
pay and pay for overtime.

GET DRUNK ON MEDICINE
Compound Containing rs Per Cent
Alcohol Popular at DanviIle.

DANVILLE, Va, Feb. 24.-So great
has become the demand here for a
certain proprietary medicine which
contains % per cent alcohol that the
city police department has laid the
condition before the prohibition com
missioner. An investigation has just
led to the discovery that during Sat
urday and Sunday more than 700 bot
ties were sold in Danville and School
field.
The police had to deal with more
drunkards this week than during the
entire month of January, and each
man admitted that>he became intoXi-
Gated on the medicine.
A local druggist has written to the
commissioner, asking IL the sale of
the medicine is legitimate, and the
Rev. ]. Sidney Peters. has said there
was no proviso in the dry law pre-
venting the sale OF medicines Of this
kind.
Lemon extract, with 90 per cent al
cohol, is running a close second to the
medicine, and a number of lemon
drunks" have been arrested.

G. O.P. FILIBUSTER
WORRIES CABINET
McAdoo Goes to Capitol to
Confer With Demo-
Gratis.

Worried over the Republican filibus-
ter and the fact that If it is continued
1T may defeat the revenue bill and i'm
portant appropriation bills, including
the big preparedness features OF the
army and navy bill and force spe-
ciaI session, Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo visited the Senate today
and conferred with Senator Simmons,
chairman of the Finance Committee,
and other leaders.
At the close of Secretary McAdoo's
visit, Senator Simmons announced
that the revenue bill would be kept
before the Senate as continuously as
possible in an effort to force 1t to
passage. The plan of continuous
night sessions, and even of a session
tomorrow, is seriously considered oy
the Democratic leaders.
Secretary McAdoo undoubtedly was
acting as spokesman for the Admin
istration. He talked first with Sen
ator Simmons and later Senators Mar
tain, Swanson, James, Thomas, and
number of others were called in.
Secretary McAdoo, at the close of
the conference. indicated that he had
talked with Senator Simmons about
various details of the revenue bill. IL
was generally understood that in ad-
dition to this the general situation
brought about by the Republican fill
buster was taken up. Democratic
leaders realized that the Republicans.
IL they persist in their fight, can prob
ably force a special session.
II no additional appropriations for
preparedness were needed the Treas
ury could get along by issuing such
Panama Canal bonds as are author
lied on short term Treasury notes.
The Administration, from all that can
be learned, is not desirous of doing
this, and much prefers to have the
revenue bill passed

DYNAMITE UNDER BRIDGE
Plot to Wreck Railroad Span Be-
lieved to Be Thwarted.

WILMINGTON. Del, Feb. 24-Off-
cials of the Delaware division OF the
Pennsylvania railroad last night dis
covered seyenty-five sticks of dyna-
mite undeT the railroad bridge across
the Mispilion river at Milford, a few
miles from Dover.
The explosive was directly under
the. bridge abutments, and it is
thought was placed there by would
be train wreckers. The returning
Delaware battalions passed over the
bridge several days ago.
Railroad detectives have left for
the scene, and a search is being made
OF all hardware dealers nearby for
clues as to the identity of the owners
of the explosive.

NEED WEEK TO ARM SHIPS
Experts Find It No Easy Task to
Mount Guns.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24-It would
take a week at the very least and
cost a very considerable sum to
mount guns on the five steamers OF
the American line now here-if the
Government should decide upon an
armament plan.
Experts today figured that the five
ships would have to be taken to the
Brooklyn navy yard and set up in
drydock for this work.
The five American line steamers now
here and subject to Government call
as auxiliaries because of mail sub
sidy are:
The Kroonland, 12,1s5 tons; New
York, 1O,97s tons; Philadelphia, TO-
7S6 tons; st. Paul, 1889 tons: St.
Louis, IL 500 tons.
