Laredo Appeals TO Hoover.


LAREDO, Tex, August 81 GA
group of Laredo business men tele-
graphed President Hoover yesterday ask
ing that the international bridges along
the Lower Rio Grande be opened "a
hours daily.
Their action resulted from failure TO
get similar requests granted by the
Treasury Department. Last Saturday
the Treasury Department made effective
an order closing the bridges at eight
Texas ports Of entry between Q pm. and
z am. daily.
The message to the President re-
iterated the claim that early closing
was injuring business and tourist traffic.
g. o. r. Chairman Helps.
The movement to have the bridges
reopened was backed by Rene B.
Creager, State Republican chairman,
who suggested bringing the matter to
Mr.. Hoover's attention.
Seymour Lowman, Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury, refused to cancel the
early closing order, despite the fact he
was advised gambling had been stopped
on the Mexican side at points between
Eagle Pass and Brownsville. A gambling
han is still operating at villa Acuna.

The mayor of Matamoros, Mexico.

close all international bridges in the

His action was interpreted as q re-

of Matamoros said the early closing
hour had demoralized business.
