Show Cattle Hustled Out to Save Tax Del Rio, Texas Reports that thousands thous-ands of Mexican cattle were being driven across the border into Texas to escape the new export tax effective October 24, were verified here Tuesday Tues-day by Lisandro Pena, Mexican consul. con-sul. American cattlemen say the new tax, which places heavy duty on livestock live-stock going out of the country, virtually vir-tually will stop exportation of Mexican Mexi-can cattle. About 10,000 head have been driven across the border at this point in the last several days. |
