HOUSTON— A historical paint ing seized by Customs agents in a custody dispute will be removed from the Museum of Fine Arts and returned to Mexico where it is con sidered a national treasure. "The Destruction of the Mission of San Saba," which d/epicts the 1758 massacre of the mission's 400 residents by Comanches and allied tribes, will be taken down Sunday, the museum announced. Although a federal court has ruled the 18th-century painting be longs to the U.S. government. Cus toms spokesman Dennis Shimkoski said Wednesday the painting will be given to the Mexican govern ment. "You have to look at the history of the painting," he said.

In essence, it's a national treasure. The United States is not going to keep a nation al treasure. We look at it as a cultur al artifact unique to Mexico." The painting, valued at $1 mil lion, will taken down from viewing at the museum Sunday, but Shimkoski said he is not sure when it will be returned to Mexico. Customs agents seized the paint ing from a broker in Austin in No vember 1989, and the museum gained temporary custody of it in March 1990. Shimkoski said although the court ruled it belonged to the U.S. government, the customs agency still had to pay the lien holder $430,000. The court also found those who received the painting in the United States were innocent of any charges, he said. In an odd twist, the agency paid for the lien with money seized in busts. "Drug dealers paid for the paint ing," he said. "I think that's kind of poetic justice." Painted by an unknown artist about 1763 and based on an eyewit ness account, it is the oldest work from the Spanish coloniaT period in Texas. It describes the massacre at the mission on the south bank of the San Saba River in southwest Texas. The 7-foot-by-10-foot oil on can vas was commissioned by the Romero de Terreros. family, who had lost a member in the massacre. It remained in the family's posses sion until 1980. It was somehow was brought into the United States in 1981, and a dealer sold it to renowned collector Peter Wray of Phoenix for $500,000. j r mjr m. wocMcm THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOCATED IN NORTHGATE 846-4135 NEW YORK— Seventy-six new regulations prepared by the Environmental Protection Agency are being held up by the White House, some in violation of congressional deadlines, ac cording to a confidential EPA re port. The stalled regulations include some of the major provisions of the 1990 Clean Air Act intended to control smog, reduce acid rain, protect the ozone layer and re duce toxic air pollutants. "The administration is holding up numerous rules, which is ille- and which is not consistent With the goal of protecting hu- nian health and the environ- tient," said a senior EPA official who spoke on condition of anonymity. The report says that eight reg ulations are currently being blocked by the White House even though congressional deadlines for their completion have passed. A copy of the Sept. 22 report Was obtained by The Associated less. Among the blocked regu lations is the set of rules govern ing the trading of air pollution amissions, a program touted for 'alying on markets to curb acid r ain. The rules were due May 15. Another regulation that missed ds deadline would require tighter amission controls on new inciner ators and chemical plants. Yet another would require t repairmen recycle ozone-de pleting chemicals from refrigera tors and air conditioners instead ufventing them into the air.
