ALFRED PARDON
ACTION UPHELD.
Carlos Watson Takes Issue
With Statement BY
District Attorney
To The Brownsville Herald,

Il have just read in The Herald the
statement attributed to r. B. Rent
fro, Jr., state district attorney, in re-
gard to the pardon issued by Gov
ernor James ". Alfred to EseQuel
CavazoS and Roy Collins. I feel that
in fairness to the governor, some
facts should be called to the atten-
ton Of the public. In his telegram
TO the governor, Rentfro is quoted
as saying, I consider your action
detrimental to true law enforcement
and fear reaction Of violence on &C
count OF possible breakdown in ad-
ministration Of justice InveStiga-
ton will show that the other law en-
forcement officers Of the Valley do
not agree with Mr.. Rentfro: the
governor having received kilograms
requesting this pardon from some
three hundred officials. including
judges, district and county attor-
neys, mayors, sheriffs. school Off
Gals, clergymen OF all denominations,
peace officers, and even officials Of
Mexico.
Mr.. Rentfro also makes a mistake
when he takes the governor to task
for acting as Judge and jury The
people, through the constitution, have
given the courts, juries, prosecutors
and the governor, each their pro-
vince. The Dallas News interviewed
Hon. VIM. II. Atwell, the trial judge
in this case, who stated that the
case was properly under the jurisdic-
ton OF the state OF Texas, and made
no comment on the governors ac-
ticn. At the conclusion Of the trial
here in Brownsville, Judge Atwell
indicated that the executive power
was the one to act on a communication
Of sentence.
Mr.. Rentfro says that the COVER
nor was not present at the trial,
but he should know that the COVER
nor had before him the court report
er'S record Of every word spoken by
the judge, the attorneys and the
witnesses.
The trial Of these officers was
conducted by Mr.. Rentfro in an eff
ficient and vigorous manner. and I
regret that hasty statements have
been made. Having been a prosecu-
tor for years, / can sympathiZe with
the district attorneys efforts to en-
force the law. but Governor Allred's
pardon record since taking office is
not such as to warrant Rentfro's
statement will every officer under
indictment or under conviction be
pardoned by the governor

10 more deeply than she admitted

that she hadn't yet had an oppor-

to nderstand-and she had
