Border Boycott
A new insurance law which
mandates that foreign motorists
driving in Texas must carry auto
liability insurance has caused
hundreds of angry Mexican na-
tionals to boycott Rio Grande Val-
ley shopping.
Retail sales in Texas border
cities have since dropped as much
as 20 to 60 percent. Reports in-
dicate Mexican shoppers account
for millions of dollars in the retail
market.
Mexican officials are calling for
some changes or repeal of the
law. Border retailers seem to favor
some modifications in order to
regain the lost business.
The insurance for a two-day
weekend auto policy costs between
$25 and $40, and a year's premium
costs as much $400.
PUC Bans Mattox
The Public Utility Commission
ruled last week that the Texas
Attorney General can no longer
represent state agencies in electric
and telephone rate cases before the
PUC.
One new commissioner, Marta
Greytok, said it was "unaccept-
able, untenable and otherwise de-
spicable," for the AG’s office to
represent both the utility commis-
sion and state agencies in the same

chicken, it must be Sunday."
Years ago when life seemed less hectic and the
pace was somewhat slower, Sundays were for church
and visiting. In our small town it was customary
to invite the pastor for Sunday dinner. Time may
have distorted my memory, but as I recall our family
entnatninni hn reacher almost every Sunday. He
. . er but he had a big appetite.
Since we had no refrigeration on our farm, in the
summer time common sense dictated that any meat
served on a special occassion be fresh. Hence the
meat of choice was chicken. We hatched and raised

AUSTIN—Providing what may
be the first positive sign that
Texas' drawn-out conflict with
federal court orders may be
nearing its end, the prison system
displayed a new unit housing 2,250
inmates which was built in 13
months.
Inspecting the new prison near
Palestine, Gov. Bill Clements said
overcrowding problems should be
solved by 1991 by adding new
prisons quickly without a tax
increase.
Clements also said the new
prison will serve as a "cookie cut-
ter model" for more fast construc-
tion, and asserted that money is
not a problem. "We can get the
money," and with no tax hike, he
said.
If voters approve a proposed
constitutional amendment on Nov.
3, new prisons for 19,000 more in-
mates will be funded by $800 mil-
lion in general obligation bonds.
If the amendment fails, Texas
faces court sanctions and multi-
million dollar fines.

our own chickens and turkeys so poultry was cheap
and plentiful. The menu was generally fried chicken
(Mom usually killed and cleaned four), mashed potatoes
and gravy, home made bread, butter we churned our-
selves, and home canned vegetables. There was always
dessert, either cake, pie or both.
The table was large because our family was large,
but when the preacher was there for Sunday dinner
with his family there just wasn't room for everyone
so the kids all ate last. Now when Mom cleaned a
chicken, she cleaned it all. I guess the preacher didn't
like necks, feet, backs or wings because when I got
to the table that was all that was left. I was sixteen
year old before I knew that Mom fried the breast
and drum sticks.
Even today when Sunday afternoon rolls around
it seems that I can detect the aroma of frying chicken
in the air. Probably just my imagination.
Nell does a good job of frying chicken and now
I eat at the first table even when the preacher comes
to dinner. However, when we have fried chicken
I insist that we have mashed potatoes and hot biscuits,
just in case the preacher has a big appetite and beats
me to the platter. I wonder if Nell ever figured that
out?

Q. What can cause nails to become brittle and
split?
A. There are several contributing factors. The
number one cause is poor diet. If this does not seem
probable, check out these factors. Excessive use
of cuticle remover or polish remover, severe injury -"3
to the fingers at one time or another, or careless ‛
filing, this being a major factor. When filing the
nails, some people file too deep into the corners of
the nails, or they file in the wrong direction causing
the nail to layer and split. Use extreme caution when R]
filing, being careful not to file too deep into the $
corners ana be sure to file from the corner of the {A

case.
Attorney General Jim Mattox
was visiting the Soviet Union to
meet with legal officials there
when the PUC made its ruling.
Officials Invest, Lose
Mauro was included in a list
of top state officials and for-
mer officeholders who lost money
in Houston-area ventures now
plagued with bankruptcy.
Other big names reported to
have participated in the vesture
are Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby, Railroad
Commissioner Jim Nugent, Hous-
ton Congressman Mike Andrews,
and a host of others.
The venture was orchestrated
by former Houston State Rep. Bill
Caraway to acquire Houston real
estate investments, and was hurt
by the downturn in the Texas
economy.
The private venture became
public during the 1986 election
when Mauro’s opponent used it
to try to- embarrass him and
Hobby. Hobby called the tactic
"Republican sleaze," and both he
and Mauro were handily reelected.
Gulf Drilling Bids
The oil and gas industry is
beginning to show renewed interest
in drilling for oil in the state-owned
waters in the Gulf of Mexico,
Texas Land Commissioner Garry
Mauro, reported last week.
Mauro said such interest indi-
cates "confidence in the recovery
of the energy industry," and it also
would add many dollars to state
coffers.
His observations came following
a School Land Board lease sale,
chaired by Mauro, which netted
almost $14 million for the Perma-
nent School Fund, a 77 percent in-
crease over a similar sale one year
ago. Bids this year more than dou-
bled last year’s.
