Hereford police made one arrest Wednesday night, after the
suspect was found to have no driver's license or car insurance. It
was at least the third time the person had been caught driving
without a license, police said.
Police investigated a possible arson Wednesday morning,
discovering that a teenager had extinguished the blaze in his
bedroom. It appeared to have started when someone threw gasoline
in the window, but police did not find a match anywhere nearby and
do not have a suspect.
A woman in the 300 Block of A venue A reported seeing a heavy set
man in blue jeans trying to peer in her neighbor's window. She said it
was not the first time she had spotted the window peeper.
Investigations of harrassment reports including one by a woman
whose ex-husband was repeatedly driving by her house, and another
of two men involved in an ongoing argument.
Two women were struck on Wednesday, one by her son and the
other by an estranged son-in-law. The mother announced her intent
to file charges on her son.
About $475 worth of diesel fuel was reportedly stolen from a local
oil company, and a woman house watching for vacationing friends
discovered a possible burglary.
Nothing appeared to be missing from the home.
Deputies also worked a motorcycle accident involving a 12-year-
old boy. The youth was not injured.
Hereford Volunteer Firemen answered one call on Wednesday, to
extinguish a dumpster fire.

Vehicle registration to increase
If you vehicle registration expires this month, you can save money
by purchasing the new tab before Aug. 1, Nell Miller, tax assessor-
collector, reminded today.
She reported there will be a substantial increase in registration
fees starting Aug. 1, especially for later model vehicles. The fees will
be based on the model and year of vehicles, rather than weight,
under the new schedule.

Texas businessmen had better
wake up and start fighting for their
political rights, especially in the tax-

politicians will continue to regard
them as fair prey for new taxing
schemes.
Gov. Mark White and many
legislators didn’t get all they wanted
in the new tax bill-namely a tax on
advertising. It’s apparent that some
politicians saw a chance to strike
