    HINDENBURG
IS WAYLAID
German Field Marshal Is Pre
vented From Entering
Reichstag Building
Berlin, Nov. 15. Pan-German
students yesterday refused to per
mit Field Marshal Von Hindenburg
to enter the Reichstag building to
testify before the subcommittee
which is investigating vrar responsi
bilities, and forced the field mar
shal's chauffeur to return with the
former command-in-chief to his
home.
The demonstration ocourred yes
terday morning as the Held marshal's
automobile was being driven toward
the Reichstag building. The stu
dents surrounded it and declared
their unwillingness to allow him to
be questioned by the subcommittee.
Von Hindenburg begged the stu
dents, who clung to the running
board of the machine, to allow the
automobile to pass, as he was due
at the Reichstag. The students,
however, replied by ordering the
street closed, declaring that they
were unwilling to allow the sub
committee to interrogate him.
When Hindenburg's automobile
was waylaid, the crowd cheered both
Von Hindenburg and Dudendorff,
and shouted "Down with the Jew
ish government."
Finally, Von Hindenburg, seeing
the futility of endeavoring to calm
the mob, permitted the chauffeur to
drive homeward.
In official quarters it was an
nounced that the students had vio
lated the conditions imposed by
martial law, and that troops would
be ordered to suppress any similar
demonstrations

57 BUILDINGS
PUT UP IN CITY
Cost of Their Construction
During Last Month
Was $488,400
Fifty-seven buildings at a cost of
$488,400 were erected in this city
during October, this year, according
to this month's issue of the Ail eri
can Contractor. This is compared
with 15 buildings erected at a cost
of $7,100 for the same period of
last year.
Other October satistics for con
struction operations bear out the evi
dence that the activity in building
which has advanced from practically
nil a year ago is still on the increase.
While it is not in line with facts
to say a "boom" is on, it is worthy
to note that during recent months
in practically every city there are
many projects in the process of con
struction.
Returns from the building depart
ments of 175 cities of the United
States show October to be a very fa
vorable month us evidenced by the
fact that building permits issued
show a substantial upward trend
from the slight slump in September
and a gain of 447 per cent over the
October operations of last year.
While only 10 cities out of 175
show a loss in comparing 1919 and
1918 activity, a more decisive fluctua
tion of 84 cities showing gains and
58 showing losses results from com
paring October to September activity.
Important cities showing heavy
gains are: Berkeley, Calif.; Boston,
Chicago; Dayton, Ohio; Dos Ange
les; Minneapolis; New Haven, Sag
inaw; Washington. D. C., and the
boros, Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and
Manhattan.

REDS WORKED
VIA MEXICO
New Revelations Lead to the
Activities of Soviet
Russia
Washington, Nov. 15.—Disclosures
of large orders for arms and am
munition placed by Mexico in Europe
are followed by revelations tending
to show that the "Reds' underground
line" from Soviet Russia to the
United States runs byway of Mex
ico.
It became known that the immi
gration service and the Departihent
of Justice both are concerned at the
influx of Russian radicals and other
aliens of Red tendencies over the
Mexican border. Futhermore, Gov
ernment agents have traced much
Red propaganda over the Mexican
line.
A letter written October 23, by
Ramon P. De Negri, Mexican consul
general in New York, to Flavla Bor
quez, a Mexican senator endorsing
the principle of "nationalization,"
has come into the hands of the Gov
ernment, and already has been called
to the attention of the State Depart
ment by at least twp Senators as
showing De Negri's association with
"radical Socialists" in the United
States.
In the opinion of officials here,
the publication of De Negri's letter
may lead to an embarrassing situa
tion. It is known that the Senators
who called the attention of Secre
tary Idinslng to it recommended can
cellation of the Consul General's
exequatur.
Government investigators have re
ported that radicals seemed to have
been first attracted to Mexico by
certain so-called "ultra-modern"
provisions of the new constitution.
Government agents also have
gathered evidence showing distri
bution of Red propaganda in the
United States through Mexican
sources and this is expected to be
shown publicly soon.
Secretary Lansins explained that
a' diplomatic inquiry had been made
at Brussels respecting the placing
of munitions orders by Mexico in
Belgium. The Government adopted
that course rather than that of a
