‘Notario publica different there
Mexicans cheated on papers
United Press International
AUSTIN — Mexican aliens
encounter a variety of problems try
ing to obtain citizenship papers al
lowing them to remain in this coun
try — bureaucratic red tape, regu
lations, legal fees — and now some
unscrupulous notaries public in
Texas border towns are making it
even more difficult, according to one
legal expert.

Services Center says the difficulties
arise from the translation of the term
“notary public.” A “notario publico”
in Mexico must undergo a strict ex
amination, be an attorney and is con
sidered to hold influential status in
society.
By comparison, the only require
ments a notary public must meet in
Texas are to be at least 18 years old, a
U.S. citizen, a resident of the state,
pay a $1,000 bond, and receive the
secretary of state’s approval to pos
sess a notary seal.
“These people go to the notaries
here thinking they have the same
powers as those in Mexico,” Cross
said. <

Some Mexican aliens pay these
notaries hundreds of dollars with the
mistaken notion that they are
lawyers who can help in securing
American citizenship papers.
“The problem is extremely wide
spread, especially in areas where
there are Spanish speaking people,”
said Erica Curb, also with TSLC.
One legislator has introduced a
bill to help combat the problem.
Sen. Tati Santiesteban, D-El Paso,
has a bill regulating advertising by
notaries by requirng those who are
not attorneys to note that when ad
vertising in a language other than
English.
The bill prohibits the translation of
the phrase “notary public” into
Spanish without signifying the true
meaning of the phrase, and is
specifies that failure to comply with
the law would be a deceptive trade
practice The bill also reiji
notaries state in their adveitij
fees they may charge.
Santiesteban’s bill wasj^
by the Senate State '
tee and will now go
Senate.

United Press International
WASHINGTON — Government
officials told Congress Wednesday
the troubled Three Mile Island nu
clear power plant is no longer of ur
gent concern and Middletown, Pa.,
area residents have received only as
much radiation as two chest X-rays.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Chairman Joseph Hendrie and a
dumber of top government experts
underwent a difficult cross-
examination by a Senate health sub
committee before hundreds of spec
tators and a bank of television
cameras.
Hendrie acknowledged that the
crippled atomic reactor is not com
pletely cut off, but, “it does not offer
urgent concern.”
“We are getting closer to a long
term shutdown,” he told Chairman
Edward Kennedy, D. Mass., “but
we do not by any manner of means
regard our situation as hunky-dory
and we can all go home.”
