Lloyd Bentsen, Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby and Texas Railroad Commission chairman Jim Nugent met at a Mex ico resort last August to discuss ways to help Texas’ lagging oil and gas in dustry, the San Antonio Light re ported Sunday. In a copyright story, the newspa per said the three were brought to gether by two of San Antonio’s most powerful energy businessmen — Glenn Biggs, chairman of City Pub lic Service and vice chairman of In- terFirst Bank of San Antonio, and William Greehey, chairman of Va lero Energy Company. Between shooting doves and re laxing in a resort near Monterrey, Mexico, the talk was Texas. Hobby described the trip as a so cial outing, but said it was Biggs’ in tention to “put together a group to think about energy issues.” “We discussed various ways in which we could help put the oil and gas industry back on its feet,” said Hobby, who was reached in Ireland, where he was vacationing. “We dis cussed the state of the oil and gas in dustry as a whole and how some sort of an oil import fee might be a bene fit.” The trip began on Aug. 15. The lieutenant governor said he and Nu gent started their trip in San Anto nio, where they boarded a Valero corporate jet. The group landed at Monterrey International Airport, where it was greeted by representatives of the Paloma Blanca lodge and driven to Sabinas Hidalgo, about 75 miles south of Laredo. Bentsen joined the group in Mex ico later in the weekend. Jack DeVore, Bentsen’s press sec retary, said the senator arrived with W. Grant Gregory, board chairman of the Touche Ross Co., whose Firm has done consulting work on the South Texas Nuclear Project. City Public Service and Central Power and Light are among the four utilities building the electric-gener ating plant near Bay City. Also accompanying Bentsen was Dallas oilman and former InterFirst Bank executive Ed Cox Sr. The three traveled on a private plane owned by Cox, the Light reported. DeVore said Bentsen, who has been the chief proponent in the Sen ate for an import fee, took part in the discussions, but no “specific leg islation was discussed.” Hobby said the group arrived at the lodge with an “understanding that we were all in favor of en dorsing some sort of tariff.” Hobby also said the group dis cussed the merits of a recent article published by Walt Rostow, a Univer sity of Texas at Austin instructor and former national security adviser to Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. The article urges the quick appli cation of new technology in the trou bled oil and gas industry and a more energetic promotion of an entrepre neurial spirit throughout the indus try. The Light said Hobby and Nu gent might have violated state law during the Mexican weekend be cause neither paid for the trip’s ex penses. Biggs told the newspaper that both Hobby and Nugent were billed in September. Hobby said he never got the bill. “That (the hilling) is being pur sued right away,” a spokeswoman in Hobby’s office said. Bureau president says ’85 farm bill helping sales of U.S. goods McALLEN (AP) — Texas Farm Bureau President C.M. True cau tioned Sunday against tinkering with the 1985 farm bill and said evidence suggests it is already moving some U.S. commodities into foreign mar kets. “My concern is that we let the pre sent farm program work,” True said as the TFB opened its 53rd annual convention. “Although the present farm bill has a lot of critics, we believe that it can work if given time,” he said. “Its main purposes are to help regain lost foreign markets, reduce supplies and support farm income.” He said the farm bill appears re sponsible for recent movement of rice and cotton into foreign markets, but that foreign competitors don’t like it because of its subsidies to U.S. farmers. “If we go in now and undo the the farm program, the rest of the world will look at the United States and say ‘Yes, you passed a farm bill, but you didn’t like it and you’re backing up,’ ” True said. True, a Plainview farmer who heads the largest farm organization in Texas, said he believes the farm bill will eventually help move feed grains such as wheat and corn into the world market. Feed-grain farmers are among the worst hit by the depression in ag riculture prices. The downturn in farming and the slide in oil prices have created a rev enue shortfall in Texas that threat ens sales tax exemptions for farm ers, but True said the Farm Bureau would fight to keep those exemp tions from being lifted when the next Legislature convenes. “There are still many ways we can cut expenditures rather than having to raise taxes,” True said. “We’re going to be prepared to convince the Legislature that these (exemptions) are important to Texas.” Products and certain services for farmers such as fertilizers and seed are exempt from state sales taxes. True said the sweeping immigra tion bill recently signed into law by President Reagan also may pose a threat to farmers, particularly Texas and California producers who rely on Hispanic workers. He said farmers may be reluctant to hire Hispanics because of the bill’s requirement that employers docu ment a worker’s citizenship, exclud ing migrant, seasonal workers. The Texas Farm Bureau also does not like documentation require ments in the bill for granting some illegal aliens amnesty. True said. Illegal aliens who can prove they have been in the United States since 1982 may be eligible for citizenship, but True said farmers who hire them may not have kept records to document their workers’ claims. A 1 exas Farm Bureau spokesman said 1,300 delegates are expected at this year’s convention, which contin ues through Wednesday. Stolen U-Haul located Saturday in Humble HUMBLE (AP) — A van con taining most of the possessions of a family moving from Houston to St. Louis was found in Humble, but the family will still have to wait until Monday before finding out how many of their belongings were re covered. U-Haul officials will open the padlock on the 24-foot rental truck Monday to determine what was taken, company clerk Traci Creasy said Sunday. Dale and Annette Allen and their two children had rented the vehicle to move from Houston to St. Louis over the Thanksgiving holiday. U-Haul had not been able to con tact the Allens, who apparently still were en route to Missouri after they left Houston on Friday, she said. Calls to the family’s new home in St. Louis went unanswered on Sun day. The truck was found on Saturday in a Humble apartment complex with the lock on the cargo door, offi cials said. The truck still appears to have at least part of a load inside, said Bill Morgan, a U-Haul service manager who has been helping the Allens. The vehicle was stolen early Thursday from a hotel parking lot despite the fact Allen had removed the ignition’s coil wire. “We thought we took all the pre cautions,” Allen said earlier. Allen had said he did not expect to ever see the truck or its contents again. The truck contained most of the family’s valuables, including furni ture, appliances and a file cabinet with all the family’s paperwork. A trailer holding bicycles, a lawn mower and other items was recov ered by police on Thursday. The Allens had moved out of their Houston house and spent Wednesday night at the hotel in pre paration for their trip. The family decided to move after Allen, a Shell Oil Co. engineer, re ceived a temporary transfer to St. Louis that will last a year to 18 months. ■|> AM/PM Clinics Minor Emergencies 10% Student Discount with ID can 3820 Texas Ave. Bryan, Texas 846-4756 401 S.
