Note—Greater light and clearer perspective on Herbert Hoover's trip to South America, in which untold diplomatic advantages were recorded jor the United States, are to be gained from_the interesting stor; written by Rexr Collier, The Star's own _representative on the trip, which began January 20. The story, with all its intimate details, will continue in The Star until completed. BY REX COLLIER. Corinto's welcome to President-elect and Mrs. Hoover was cordial, colorful e insforms to a temporary capital, the little seaport had bedgc;yed rtself with welcome signs and American flags and greenery, and the entire population and hundreds of visitors were in holiday dress for the state oceasion. The Maryland's presidential barge tied up at the dock a few minutes be- fore 11 o'clock, and Mr. and Mrs, Hoover, Ambassador Fletcher and other members of the official staff proceeded through a lane of Marines to the main street, along which were massed the eager citizens, At the intersection of the road from the dock and the crowded street ‘the nartv paused briefly to admire a golden “statue of liberty” which greeted them on the corner. The statue was mnone nLhFr than the person of charming “Miss Nicaragua.” beauty contest win- ner, who, swathed in golden robes, stood in graceful posture atop a high pedes- tal. Above her prettv head she held a glittering “torch of liberty” and crown- ing her brunette locks was a gnmm diadem., She smiled an acknowles ment of the nttenmm paid her, but dld not change posi [y une-umrha. The party walked rapidly down the narrow sidewalk toward the custom house, facing on a side street, a block from the wharf. Closcly drawn lines of Marines in washed-out tropical khaki restrained the surging throng from pushing into the street, but they did not prevent the enthusiastic spectators from shouting their “vivas” as the dis- tinguished guests moved past. Along tHe street in frnnc of the un- ostentatious custom house were drawn up several companies of Marines and national guardsmen with arms “pre- sented” ° The President-elect touched his hand to his head in response to the salute and disappeared up the stairs which led from the doorway to the second story. It was in a small, officelike room at the top of the stairs that President- elect Hoover met the Nicaraguan Presi- dent, Adolfo Diaz. The smiling, smartly- dressed veteran of Nicaragua's hectic political warfare gave Mr. Hoover a hearty handshake and invited him to & seat. Senor Diaz does not speak English fluentlv, so an interpreter acted as in- termediary. Mr. Hoover brought the brief exchange of pleasantries to an end by inviting President Diaz to have The invitation was accepted readily. From the custom house ‘the party re- traced its steps part of the way to the Hotel Lunone, whers Mr. Hoover was to meet President-elect’ Moncada. The cool lobby of the hotel was a welcome relief from the hot sun baking down on the crowds outside. To the left of Mr. Hoover as he entered the building was a restaurant, at one side of which could be glimpsed a long bar doing rushlnx holiday business. Mr. Hoover’s path led in the other direction, into s private reception room banked with tall mhns and decorated with vases of flow- ers. In the center of the room stood a lmf'mt’ tbhlsl:;t r{:t native blossoms—the of the dou; neral to future Pirst l.n‘dyy 8 A Meet Gen. Moncada. Gen.

He wore a jAmerican make of semi-soft collar, with a taste- fully shaded cravat, and the corner of a handkerchief protruded from an upper cou pocket. The opportunity was ripe for another luncheon proposal and Mr. Hoover seized it. The invitaticn to Gen. Mon- cada was extended and accepted with- out semblance of formality—and the second step in the Hoover good-will program in Nicaragua had been taken. ‘The brief reception concluded with the passing of the customary trays of champagne and a plethora of toasts to the health of all and sundry. ‘There remained the final step of se- curing former President Chamorro’s at- tendance at the luncheon. The neces- sary invitation soon was tendered, and the stage was set for one of the most remarkable incidents of the good-will tour. ‘The President-elect of the United | States expressed a. wish to see the ,slghv.s of the town. So the group moved |out of the hotel and toward the custom | house again. The troops still were |lined up in the street. and as Mr. and |Mrs. Hoover and their companions started down the length of the block the khaki ranks came to attention once more, Officers in charge of the detach ment mistook the casual stroll for formal inspection, and the future com- mander-in-chief of the military forces, equal to the emergency, let them be- lieve it. Party Tours City. The party continued along the next block and turned to the left at one of the intersections, walking for the most part in the sand and dust rather han on he rough and narrow sidewalks. The white shoes worn by Mr. and Mrs. Hoover turned a reddish gray and the cuffs of Mr. Hoover's white flannel trousers became discolored by the dust. Few persons were on the streets in the back part of the town, as none there had anticipated a visit by the American guests. There were a number of barefooted children at play on the worn doorsteps of the humble houses, and a few housewives, aroused from domestic pursuits by the approach of the sightseers, stared through paneless land;)wx or curtilmed do&'\u)s without showing signs of recognitio: A vwrinkled native woman beside & market stand on a corner was person to sense the atrollern She reen bananas ad been rom a big aulk of the fruit, rushed around to the front of- the stand ahd velled - quite excitedly,- “Viva Meester Hoov-air!” The President-elect bowed and smiled and Mrs. Hoover waved her handker- chief. The market woman waved her hand and continued yelling her vivas until the group had disappeared around the corner. Church Peals Welcome. As M nd Mrs. Hoover passed in front of an aged church of modest pro- portions, built close to the sidewalk, the old bell inthe slightly-tilted steeple began ringing an exuberant greeting to the passersby. Perhaps it was an invi- tation to step into the shadowy inte- rior and pay a call, but there was not time for this, and the group moved on after a brief pause. It was now past noon, and the hikers turned back toward the waterfront, mopping the perspiration from their faces as they went. Corinto’s midday sun is not to be taken with cool indif- ference. ‘The main avenida was jammed with spectators,’ whose interest had attained a high pitch. The more agile ones had perched themselves on waterfront londlng platforms or on crates and pack- iSg boxes along the railroad tracks which paralleled the street alongside the beach. The American visitors noted with interest that some of the larger boxes bore signs indicating they had contained well known makes of Ameri- can automobiles. As the group of guests, with Mr. and Mrs. Hoover in front, walked past the crowds toward the dock there arose some rousing Latin-American cheers. One section, composed of young men who had the appearance of students, waxed particularly vociferous and gave several organized collegelike “rah-ral rah’s” for “Senor and Senora Hoov-air. | There were many lusty “vivas” for the | President-elect and his wife and also for “los Americanos.” As the party once again came oppo- site the dock Mr. and Mrs. Hoover noted, to their surprise, that" Miss Nica- ragua” still was helding aloft the torch of liberty in the hot glare of that after- noon sun.
