May Quench Thirst
On Mexican Border
Associated Press

LAREDO, Texas, April 9-Whether
Mexican cities along the border will
become cases for international drink
ers" when America adopts prohibi-
tion in July has not been determined,
despite some leanings in this direc-
ton.
A movement recently was started
to have passport restrictions removed,
throw open the international bridge
and RIM weekend excursions trains
into Mexico. It was proposed to es
tablish big gambling houses, cockpits,
1bLll-rings and pretentious drinking
emporiums. American business men
vigorously protested on the ground
that the trains passing through Am
er'can towns would bring only a repu-
tation for .lawlessness.
The Mexican government has not
indicated it's attitude in the matter
and seems disposed to let the liquor
problem solve itself. Local officials
are represented as not wishing to
deny their citizens profits that AM
erican prohibition might bring.
Mexican cantineros have thrived in
the year that Texas cities have been
dry under the Texas military zone
law. Passports, regulations permit
persons living within ten miles of
the border to pass from one country
to the other on q local permit. Many
American residents visit Mexican
towns daily to obtain drink. Amer
lean authorities have prevented
lsmuggling of liquor into the United
States.
5: Medical authorities predict that un-
restricted border traffic would have
a serious affect on the army's cam.
j paign against disease.
All suspicious visitors from Mex
leo are searched by customs officials
for contraband liquor. As result Of
this strict supervision, mezcal, a high
/ intoxicating Mexican drink that form
ertly sold for SO cents quart, nov
]. brings $40 quart here when OBJ
