fFrom The Tribune Bureau

Washington. Dec. 2l.-Friends OF the
American consular service, who know OF
the high state OF efficiency to which II
has been brought under the State Depart
mont profess to be alarmed over its fut-
ure as they say that the Secretary OF
state has been neglected. OF the service
interests i'm permitting the Department
Of Commerce to take a first step toward
assuming "A very considerable portion OF
the functions OF the consular corps.
In estimates recently sent TO Congress
the Secretary of Commerce asks TOT ap-
preparations for the appointment OF COM
mercal attaches and for the promotion
~ trade. under his supervision and con-
troll. amounting to $3.50, zoe. Most impor-
tant of all. however. is a provision when
Secretary Redfeld is endeavoring 10 nave
written into the law governing the ser
vice that consular officers OF the United
States shall report directly to him on
commercial matters.
His recommendations simply constitute
a revival OF an old fight OF the Depart
ment OF Commerce. formerly the Depart
ment OF Commerce and Labor. to take
away from the Department OF state the
control OF the consular service. The ell
fort is deeply resented by those who are
familiar with the consular service, and
they assert that il Secretary Bryan does
not show more interest In the matter
than he has thus far Mr. Redheld may be
able TO put through portion AT least OF
his scheme.
All officials In Washington admit that
the American consular service has been
brought to a splendid state OF efficiency
during the last few years and at cost
Of practically nothing as through the col
lection OF fees. which 20 into the Treas
ury. the service IL practically self-sup-

average cost OF the maintenance OF each
