two complaints filed by the Pownal
selectman, f. e. Potter, A. j. Mer-
chant and H. W. Morgan.
One complaint is protest against
rebuilding the Boston and Maine rail
road station on the site of the struo-
ture recently destroyed when Il
freight train broke in two and cars
ploughed through the building. In
their protest the selectmen state that
similar accidents have occurred prev

the site is a dangerous one for stat
ion
The other complaint is that the
tracks of the Bennington and North
Adams street railway at the crossina
on Main street opposite the Methodist
church have sunken several incnes be
low the highway grade making the
crossing dangerous for the passage of

DIPLOMACY
Tells Americans a Few Facts Not
ReliShed at Washington
HAVE NOT OBSERVED NEUTRALITY
Have Failed to Protect Legitimate
Trade But Foster Great Industry
In War Material
HAVE NOT OBSERVED NEUTRALITY

Washington, April 12.--Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador at
Washington, made public last night
the text of the note which he recently
presented to the state department dc.
claring that "if the American people
desire to observe true neutrality
they will find means to stop the eX-
elusive expectation of arms TO one
side, or at least to use this export
trade as a means to uphold the legiti-
mate trade with Germany, especially
the trade in foodstuffs.'
The memorandum was prepared at
the German embassy, and while it
does not call for reply, the state de-
partment already has drafted one
which will be delivered probably with
in the next few days. The embassa-
dor in his complaint informs the Unit
ed States that contrary to the real
spirit of neutrality, an enormous new
industry of war material of every
kind is being built up in this country.
and that this is Supplying only Ger
manys enemies. fact which is IN no
way modified by the purely theoreti-
cal willingness to furnish Germany as
well, if it were possible.
The van Bernstorff memorandum
severely criticises the failure OF the
United States to obtain the release of
the cargo of the American steamship
Wilhelmina. 1t boldly condemns the
inability of this Government to accom-
plish anything in its efforts TO safe
guard legitimate American trade
with Germany, asserts that after
eight months of effort nothing has
been accomplished and characterizcs
this delay as equivalent to complete
failure.
After thus picturing the foreign po-
licy of the United States Government
as one of futility, Count Won Bern
storff's memorandum says it must be
assumed that the United States Gov
ernment has accepted England law

A DICKENS PROGRAM
Given BY the Fortnishtly Saturday
Afternoon.

Afternoon.
The Fortnightly gave a creditablc
Dickens program on Saturday after
noon although the unusual number of
local entertainments last week inter
fered somewhat with the original
plans, finally making il necessary to
omit one of the dramatic sketches
Every feature presented, however,
was gem in it's way and the quaint
costumes seeming in every case TO
suit the character exactly, wore a
source of much interest and mCrri-
ment.
Charles Dickens was never more
like himself than on this occasion and
he seemed to take great pride and
pleasure in presenting some OF Lis
most familiar characters to the aud
ience, having for each one an 3ppro
pirate word of introduction. Little
Nell's grandfather was indeed 4 dear
old gentleman, and Fagin as villain.
