Clements encouraged by
Reagan-Portillo meeting
■i' By CHARLES RICHARDS
a" Associated Press Writer
* WASHINGTON (AP) - Go?.
Bill dements glared at a
reporter who asked him outride
•the White House Tuesday about
the Texas Legislative.
| “I thought ere were here to
talk about tbe visit here by
.Mexican President Lopes
Portillo. I don’t think that has
anything to do with him, and I
•don’t believe I’ll have any
comznezK on n, uanaonia.
d Bat he spoke optimistically
about talcs between President
Jose Lopes Portfllo about the
illegal alien problem in Tens
•and other border states.
“I don’t think there’s any
.question bnt that some
.progress has been made in this
iregard,” 1 Clements said
Tuesday afternoon as he wan
leaving a luncheon held at Die
White House in Lopes Portflto’a
honor.
4 “You can never solve a
problem unless you discuss it,
and the two presidents hive
'ipet and have put it on the table
tor discussion. It’s never
happened before, so that alone
progress and a great step
forward, in my opinion,” the
fTexas Republican spM
' “But you must recognise that
this is only s beginning, and
that they are talking at this
non* only in concepts. But Ws a
great Deg inning, ana i woma
' anticipate further progress wfll
evolve,” said dements.
dements and Texas
Secretary of State George
Stroke and their wives were
among shoot 100 guests at the
hlifHf
“The guest worker program
was certainly discussed. It was
notanew issue, 111 remind you,
because it has been discussed
for at least a year among
governors of the border
states.”
Several Hispanic groups had
a press conference in
Washington earlier Tuesday at
which they blasted the idea of a
guest worker program, saying
it would open the door to more
illegal aliens than ever before
and create massive problems.
“That’s nonsense,” Clements
said.
“That one word describes my
feeling about that Absolutely
nonsense. Anyone who thinks
we are going to allow on-
fettered, undisciplined im-
migration into the United
States with no system behind it,
is mistaken,” he added.
“Those who make the loudest
noise about it are just seeking
publicity,” he said.
The issue is not a simple one,
said Clements, who described it
as highly complex and sen-
sitive.
Clements said the concept of
twin plants, such as those in the
border cities of El Paso and
Juarez, came during meetings
with Lopez Portillo.
Twin plants “will not only
continue, but will be enhanced
as time goes on and will be
greatly encouraged," Clements
said.
Also at Tuesday’s White
House luncheon were Tezas
professional golfer Lee
Trevino, and his wife; Sen. and
Mrs. John Tower; Rep. Tom
LoefHer, R-Hunt, and Ids wife;
and Rep. Kika de la Garza, D-
Mission, and his wife.
Southwestern Bell
wants new rate hike
By ROCKY SCOTT
Associated Press Writer
DALLAS (AP) - A South-
western Bell spokesman says
inflation and the Public
Utilities Commission’s refusal
to approve past rate increase
requests are the reasons the
company will ask for another
rate bike “in the next several
days.”
“We need to get our earnings
to a level to be able to pay our
investors a return on their
investment,” spokesman Dale
Johnson said Tuesday in an-
nouncing the rate increase
request
Johnson declined to say how
much the company wfll ask for,
but indicated the request will
be higher than the 1900 request
of |326 million.

indicted, pilot’freed V
HOUSTON (AP)-A federal
grand jury has indicted two
English arms brokers and
ordered the release of an
Austrian jetliner pilot accused
of plotting to ship $1.2 million
worth of military weapons to
South Africa.
Peter Towers, 51, and John
Parks, 43, were indicted
Monday on one count of con-
spiracy to illegally export
16,396 munitions, including
automatic rifles, grenade
launchers and pistols, to the
Republic of South Africa.
The two men also were
charged with one count of at-
tempting export weapons
without a license and 22 counts
of possessing fully automatic
M-16 military rifles. .
The pair faces up to 10 years
in prison and $100,000 fines each

BROWNSVILLE, Texas
(AP) — Last year Evarista
Serrata, a partially blind, 106-
year-old widow, was kicked out
of her house by a younger
relative.
This year, she says her
family tried to burn her out to
get her property.
The woman told Peace
Justice Alex Perez that her
niece and great-niece set her
house on fire, leaving the inside
blackened and ransacked. Mrs.
Serrata said she had refused to
accompany the relatives to
Houston.
In June last year, Mrs.
Serrata filed civil suit to evict
her great-granddaughter, who
had taken over the house and
forced the elderly woman to
stay with her adopted son.
“It’s a shame and I’m going
to see that she (great-
granddaughter) is brought to
justice,” said Perez, who
handled the civil suit.
“They’re just trying to get
her property,” he said. “And
they’re trying to force her out.
She (Mrs. Serrata) knew that if
she went to Houston, she would
probably die soon. That’s why
she kept telling them, ‘No voy,
no voy (I won’t go).”’
Arrest warrants were issued
Monday for three persons in
connection with a fire at Mrs.
Serrata’s house.
