Washington, April 12.—Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador made public last night the text of the note which he recently presented to the state department declaring that “if the American people desire to observe true neutrality they will find means to stop the exclusive exportation of arms to one side, or at least to use this export trade as a means to up- hold the legitimate trade with Ger- many, cspcclally the trade in food- stuffs.” The menwrandum was prepared at the German embassy, and while it does not call for a reply the state department already has drafted one which will be delivered probably with- in the next few days. The ambassador in his complaint in- forms the United States that contrary to the real spirit of neutrality, an enormous new industry of war ma- terial of every kind is being built up in this country, and that thisis “sup- plying only Germany's enemies, a fact which is in no way modified by the purely theoretical willingness to fur- nish Germany, as well, if it were pos- sible.” Text of Mcmorandum. The text of the memorandum fol- lows: “The different British orders in council have altered the universally recognized rules of international law in such a one-sided manner that they arbitrarily suppress the trade of neu- tral countries with Germany. Already prior to the last order in council the shipment of conditional contraband, especially foodstuffs, to Germany was practically impossible. Tn fact, prior to the protest which the American government made in London on De- cember 28, 1914 not a single ship- ment of such goods for Germany has been effected from the United States. Also, after the lodging of the praqtest, as far as is known to the German em- bassy, only one such shipment nas been attempted by an American skip- per. Ship and cargo were immedi- detained at a British and are still “TIZ” FOR AGHING, SORE, TIRED FEET for tender, puffed-up, burn- ing, calloused fect and corns. wpiz “Sure! 1 use ‘TIZ’ You can be happy-footed just like me.

The urine becomes cloud the bladder is irritated, and you may to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly, At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney region, you suffer from back- ache, sick headache, dizziness, sto- mach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activ- ity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weak- ness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in- jure; makes a delightful efferv. lithia-water drink which e should take now and then to lu-en the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble. text for this unwarranted action, the British government referred to a de- cree of the German federal council concerning the wheat trade, although this decree only covered wheat and flour and no other foodstuffs, although imported foodstuffs were especially ex- empt from this dccree and although the German government had given ail necessary guarantees to the United States government and had even pro- posed a special organization in order to secure these foodstuffs for the ex- clusive consumption of the civilian population. “The seizure of an American under these circumstances was in con- tradiction with the recognized prin- ciples of international law. Never- theless the United States government has not obtained the release of the ship, nor has it after eight months of war succeeded in safeguarding the legitimate. American trade with Ger- many. Such a delay, especially when the supply of foodstuffs is concerned, seems equivalent to complete failure. It is, therefore, to be assumed that the United States government "has ac- cepted England’s violations of inter- nation] law. xportation of War Material, “Furthermore, there has to be con- sidered the attitude of the govern- ment of the United States concerning the question of exportation of war ma- terial. The imperial embassy hopes to agree with the government of the United States in assuming that with regard to the question of neutrality there is not only the formal side to be considered, but also the spirit in which neutrality is enforced. ‘“Conditions in the present war are different from those in any former wars. For this reason it is not justi- fied to point at the fact that perhaps in former wars Germany furnished belligerents with war material; be- cause in those former cases the ques- tion was not whether any war mater- ial was to be furnished to the belliger- ents, but merely which one of the competing countries would furnish it. In the present war, with the excep- tion of the United ates, all the countries capable of a nothworthy production of war material are either at war themselves or completing their armaments and have accordingly pro- hibited the exportation of war mater- ship ial. Therefore the United States of America is the only country in a po- sition to export war material. This fact ought to give a new meaning to the idea of neutrality, independent of the formal law. “Instead of that, and in contradic- tion with the real spirit of neutrality, an enormous new industry of war ma- terials of every kind is being built up in the United States, inasmuch as not only the existing plants are kepg busy and enlarged, but also new ones are continually founded. “The iternational agreement for the protection of the right of neutrals originate in the necessity of protecting the existing industries of the neutral countries. They were never intended to encourage the creation of entirely nw industries in neutral states, as, for instance, the new war industry in the United States, which supplies only one pdrty of the belligerents. .. Supplying Germany's Enemies. “In reality the American industry is supplying only Germany’s enémies, a fact which is in no way modified by the purely theorctical willingness to furnish Germany as well, if it were possible. “If the American people desire to observe true neutrality they will find means to stop the exclusive export- tation of arms to one side, or at least to use this export trade as a means to uphold the legitimate trade with Ger- many, especially the trade in food- stuffs. This spirit of neutrality should appear the more justified to the United States as it has been maintained towards Mexico. “According to the declaration of a congressman made in the house com- mittee for foreign relations, Decem- ber 30, 1914, President Wilson is quoted as having said on February 4, 1914, when the embargo on arms for Mexico was lifted: “‘We should stand neutrality, comsidering the surround- ing facts of the case’ . . . He then held in that case that because Car- ranza had no ports, while Huerta had them and aws able to import these materials, that it was ‘our duty as a nation to treat them (Carranza and Huerta) upon an equality if we wished to observe the true spirit of neutral- ity. for genuine Embargo on Arms, “This conception of ‘the true spirit of neutrality,’ if applied to the pres- ent case would lead to an embargo on arms.” In reply to published reports to the effect that American officials were ir- ritated at the announcement of tha embassy's intention to make the mem- orandum public, Count von Bernstorft said last night: “There is nothing unusual in its publication, as all the American notes that went to Berlin, including that re- garding the Frye case, have been pub- lished, As 'to further criticisms that Germany had in former wars taken the same attitude as the United States in regard to the sale of ammunition to belligerents, I desire to call at- tention to what Andrew D. White, American ambassador to Germany, at the time of the Spanish-American war, said in his Autobiography in re- gard to a Spanish vessel which was reported by the American consul at Hamburg to be suspected of being loaded with arms for use against the United States in Cuba. Mr., White said: “‘l hastened to the foreign office and urged that vigorous steps be taken, with the result that the vessel, which in the meantime had left Ham- burg, was overhauled and searched at the mouth of the Elbe. The Ge man government mjight easily have pleaded, in answer to my requ the American government erally shown itself opposcd (o such interference with the of small arms to belligerents, and had contended that it was not obliged to search vessels to find such contraband of war, but that this duty was incum- bent upon the belligerent nation con- cerned.” ///// ) n\\\\\\ By the Clock When it is midnight in New York it is 11 o’clock in Chicago, 10 o’clock in Denver, 9 o’clock in San Francisco, 5 A.
