JApAN's PROTEST uNAyAIuNG
Action Ends Contest OF Twenty Years
Over Objections Of Three
Presidents.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Congress
has overridden veto by President
Wilson for the first time and enacted
into law the immigration bill with its
long-fought literacy test provision.
The senate voted late today, 81 to
10, to pass the measure, notwithstand-
ing the veto and in spite of eleventh
hour information that Japan again had
protested against the languarge of the
Asiatic exclusion section.
The house overturned the veto last
week by vote OF 2S7 to LOG, so the
senate's action ends the contest of
twenty years standing in which three
presidents have repudiated similar
bills passed by congress
The international situation was
brought into the closing debate in the
senate, Senator Reed calling attention
to the Japanese objection and plead
ing that nothing be done at this time
to disturb or impair the country's re-
lations with friendly nation. Sena-
tor Smith of South Carolina chairman

South American Governments and

Berlin, via Sayyille wireless, Feb.
5.-President Wilson's communication
to American diplomatic representa-
tives in the neutral countries, inviting
the neutral governments to take
Americas lead in breaking off diplo-
matte relations with Germany has not
yet been published here. The con-
tents OF the message was received
tonight by some Of the newspaper cor
respondents from their informants in
Amsterdam and Geneva
Official quarters express the opinion
that the German government does not
expect President Wilson's suggestion
to be needed by all neutrals. 1t is
thought not unlikely. however, that
one or two of the powers now neutral
will follow the example set by the
United States. If they do so. 1t is
asserted in official quarters here, it
will not be, as in the case of the Uni
ted States, solely to protect its won
interests, Independent from the En-
tente Allies, but under economic pres
sure from Germanys enemies.
From an authoritative source this
outline of the attitude OF the neutrals
as conceived by official circles here,
was obtained:
The South American states and
Spain are listed in the doubtful"
class.
Slight anxiety is felt regarding
Holland may do.
The Scandinavian countries and
Switzerland are regarded as safe"
This means that Germany expects
them to decline President Wilson's
auvice to break with Germany.
1t is pointed out that Holland. Swift
zerland and the three Scandinavian
countries are so near the seat of war
that for them to break off diplomatic
relations would be virtually equiva-
lent to intervention on the side of
Entente Allies.
Those who tonight were apprised of
President Wilson's communication to
neutrals were unanimous in predicting
that its publication here is bound to
create antagonism, since it is believed
it will be taken as an invitation to iso-
late Germany completely.

Administration Railway Labor Bill
STRIKES ARE NOT PROHIBITED
interference with Interstate Com
merce Becomes a Crime If
Measure Is Enacted.

Washington, Feb 5.-Carrying a
provision to empower the President to
take over the railroads in time of war,
the administration railway labor bill
was reintroduced in the house today
without the compulsory arbitration
feature
The bill as reintroduced by Chair
man Adamson is much like that pre-
pared by the senate interstate-com-
merce committee. 1t provides settle
ment of threatened strikes after the
usual mediation efforts have failed
by presidential commission compos-
ed OF two representatives of the roads
two representatives OF the men and
the existing mediation and concilia-
tion board. The commission would
report its findings with recommends
tions within three months.
The bill would not prohibit strikes
pending the investigation but would,
like the senate measures, makes it a
crime to interfere with interstate COM
merce and would authorize the Presi-
dent to use military force whenever
in his judgment the public interest re-
quires, and to draft railroad employ
ers or employees in time of war, insur-
rection, invasion or any emergency
requiring the transportation of troops
or military equipment. Telegraph and
telephone lines also would be subject
to the draft.

Mutual HeIpfuIness.

Saturday afternoon and evening an
important conference was held at the
Y. NJ. c. A. camp, which it is hoped
will become historic among the boys
and young men employed in the
shops and mills in Bennington.
The object of the conference was
to discuss the industrial program of
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton, which Is working wonders in
thousands of industrial centers. deter
mine whether or not Bennington
ought to undertake it. and il so, to
start.
Those present were, Frank Dragon
and Frank Moses, from the Black Cat
Company, Ralph Gavitt, from II. E.
Bradford & Co., Henry MacLaren,
from the Needle Shop, Clarence
Feathers, from the Bennington Wax
PAPER Company, Martin Cutler, from
Bottum & Torrance, Joseph Antonio,
from Holden, Leonard mill. Dele
gates from other shops were unable
to make the trip. The boys were ac-
companied by II. A. Wilkinson, and
Charles Gould, Accountant for Bot
tum & Torrance.
II was decided that there should be
an organization among the young men
and boys in the shops TO promote the
industrial program of the association,
and officers were elected as follows;
President, Martin Cutler; secretary,
Clarence Feathers: treasurer, Joseph
Antonio.

American Negro Seaman Killed

METHOD ALONE IS QUESTIONED
State Department viii Investigate
Report That Steamers Lifeboats
We're Shelled.

Washington, Feb. Information
that Richard Wallace, a negro
American seaman had been killed
when a German submarine sunk the
steamship Evanston was received at
the state department today from Con-
sui Frost at Queenstown.
lnasmuch as Wallace was employed
on a provisional collier he had
virtually become attached to the
British fighting service as the
Evanston would be subject to attack
without warning. There is no war
rant in International law, however,
that would permit the firing on load
ed lifeboats, which II is claimed, Is
the manner in which Wallace met his
death.
The state department will take no
action until after a thorough investi-
cation.
Amsterdam, Feb. 5.-Richard Wal
lace of Baltimore, Md, was killed
when German submarine sank the
steamship Eavestone, according to an
official report from London, which
reached here tonight. The report
says that after the crew Of the sink
ing vessel had taken to their boats,
they were shelled by the submarine.
The captain and three seamen. in
Guiding Wallace were killed, and the
second mate was seriously wounded
The survivors were landed today.
Washington, Feb. 5.-The grave
concern with which the American gov
ernment has been awaiting develop
ments since the break. with Germany
was not perceptibly increased by
press dispatches from London tonight
announcing that an American mem
Der of the crew of the British steam
ship Eavestone had been killed by
shells from a German submarine.
Confidence apparently was felt in
all quarters that full report would
show that the vessel was attacked in
accordance with the rules of cruiser
warfare and that the incident would
not prove to be the overt act which
will mean war.
According to the stories of surviv-
ors. the master and three members of
the Eavestone's crew, including the
American, we're killed when they
were leaving the ship in boats. There
have been several instances in the
past in which deliberate shelling of
boats was alleged. but such a case
never has been established. to the
satisfaction of the state department
1t is believed here that the shelling
indicates the Eavestone was resisting
or attempting to escape and that
shells intended for the ship may have
struck the boats.

TIPS ON GARDENING

The garden specialists of the Uni
ted States Department Of Agricul-
ture divide vegetables into two
classes-"warm temperature" and
cold temperature" vegetables.
When peach and plum trees are in
blossom, they say, it is time to sow
in the open ground such seed as
lettuce, radish, parsley, beets, tur-
nips, cabbage, carrots, peas, and on
ions. The wrinkled peas should not
be planted until later, as they are
more liable to rot in cool ground
than are the smooth varieties. When
the apple trees bloom, it is time to
plant the heat-loving vegetables,
such as cucumbers, beans, sweet
corn, pumpkin and squash. This is
an old but excellent rule.
The quickest crop to mature is
The radish. Lettuce, turnips, peas,
beets, and beans usually require
from to 9 weeks, corn from 1 to
Is weeks and potatoes from Is to
16 weeks to mature.
Lettuce is to be to the garden what
the hay crop is in the field-always
needed, and gives some of the best
returns. A rich sandy loan with suf-
ficient nitrate to stimulate leaf
growth and intensity .he chlorphyll
or deep leaf color Of the plant, and
a sufficiency of soft water keep the
