The Mexican government tonight
ordered all German honorary
consulates In Mexico closed by
Snplomber 1 in reprisal for a
German order closing all Mexi
can consulates in Germnn-oo-cup
led territories.
The German order did not af
fect Mexican consulates in Ger
many itself, but the Mexican
foreign offlco voluntarily order
ed the closure of the consulate
general at Hamburg and all other
Mexican consulates In the rolch,
all of which wore honorary.
Break Close
Likewise, all German consul
ates In Mexico are honorary. The
German legation will not be af
fected by the Mexican order.
There hos been no mention of
German action against the Mexi

A 8 per cent gross tax on all

ket, Townsend said, would serve
as a substitute for all of the var
ied taxes now imposed by gov

said its success had been estab

Branching off Into a brief dis
cussion of pensions, the witness
said that under such a broad tax

would be distributed as pensions
with a great resulting Increase
in the total volume of business.
In the two weeks of hearings,
the committee has -heard re
quests for exemptions or modifi
