NEW YORK (N.A.N.A. mo one can
realize how many Germans there are in
New York now until he passes some
time on the North German Llyod pier
in Brooklyn when the Europa and
Bremen, fastest of liners, are landing
or departing. It sounds like a huge
Rhineland picnic, with many large FAM
HES crying In unison, their greetings or
faYewells.
Also, there is decided vogue in Ger

Of dining that the Germans have, but
without the beer of old. Walters wear
fancy Bavarian pants and hats with
feathers in them and the music is Tyr

LAREDO CONSULATE
CLOSING PUZZLES
Hoover Considers Situation,
Made Mysterious by Veil
of Secrecy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Hoover took personal notice
yesterday of the situation created by
the closing of the Mexican consulate
at Laredo, Tex, but there was no lift
ing Of the cloak Of secrecy which the
State Department, the Texas congress
sional delegation and Gov. Dan Moody
have thrown about the exact status OF
the negotiations for Its reopening.
The President conferred during the
forenoon with Acting Secretary, Cot
ton, Senators Connally and Sheppard
and Representative Garner, the Demo-
cratic leader of the House. Afterward
the Acting Secretary OF State said he
had been negotiating with the Mexican
government, but that he could not dis
cuss the negotiations.
Senator Connally subsequently is
sued q statement in which he expressed
an opinion that the Mexican govern
tnent would certainly not be so blind
as to persist" in its course. What this
course might be beyond keeping the
consulate closed was not revealed.
1.-The Mexican government" he said
will certainly not be so blind as to
persist in q course of conduct which Is
seriously injuring not alone the trade
and commerce of Laredo, but OF the en-
tire United States and Mexico as we'll
II shall continue to keep in touch
with the State Department and urge
that our Government give protection to
American citizens by, insisting that
Mexico shall withdraw its acts OF re-
prisal and discrimination"
Railroads holding freight for move
ment to Mexico near Laredo were
authorized today by the Interstate
Commerce Commission to route 1t by
way Of Brownsville and Eagle Pass.
This action was taken to prevent fur
ther congestion and to expedite move
ment of freight and Is applicable to the
Missouri Pacific, the International
Great Northern, the Texas Mexican
and the Texas and New Orleans rail-
roads.
The commission ordered that the
rate over the authorized route should
be the same as that through Laredo,
