Associated Press Writer
MCALLEN, Texas (AP) -
State law enforcement officers
are battling heavy equipment
smugglers and it’s obvious who
is winning.
‘‘I don’t think we pose a
threat to anyone,” said Ed
Sanders, Department of Public
Safety investigator.
“Sometimes I just have to joke
about it — that one of these days
Mexico is going to sink into the
ocean with all the bulldozers
and tractor-trailers going over
there."
Sanders is the only DPS of-
ficer assigned to motor vehicle
theft in seven counties, in-
cluding the lower Rio Grande
Valley with its many in-
ternational bridges.
“I would estimate 6,000
vehicles a year pass through
Texas illegally to Mexico. Of
those we may get 200 back," he
said.
Sanders and other in-
vestigators say heavy equip-
ment, farm machinery and
tractor-trailer rigs are stolen
throughout Texas and other
states and then driven to border
areas. A large percentage of
stolen vehicles bound for
Mexico come from Houston.
The theft operations range
from two or three persons to
perhaps groups of 10. Although
the theft rings have contacts in
several cities on both sides of
the border, they are.
not“organized crime” in the
sense of mafia-type operations.
The stolen equipment
amounts to millions of dollars
annually in losses. This does not
include passenger cars and
pickup trucks ripped off
parking lots in South Texas and
driven across the Rio Grande.
The "typical case" involves a
vehicle, snatched in Houston,
driven to Brownsville and taken
across the border by a (hirer
from Mexico.
. "They can steal it, bring A
down here and have it across
before it’s reported stolen,”
Sanders said. "That’s what
makes it so nice (for thieves),
They don’t really need to paint
it or change registration
numbers.”
No state or federal agency-
checks titles of vehicles leaving
the United States
That’s going to be the only
way to stop it,” said Victor
Odiorne. DPS investigator m
Laredo.
However, even spot checking
of heavy equipment would back
up bridge traffic further now
that the U.S. Border Patrol and
Customs Service have reduced
staff at crossings
Mexican authorities check
motor registration at points
several miles from the border
However, equipment thieves
usually have arranged in ad-
vance to bring their goods over,
Sanders said.
During one investigation, the
chief of Mexican customs at a
bridge was caught aiding a theft
ring, Sanders added
Another problem is that farm
equipment, in demand for
Mexican land clearing
programs, often has qo iden-
tification number or title 7
"Our people and the police
have tried for years to get them
i farmers • to get a certificate of
title,” Odiorne said, “It's
almost impossible to trace
them."
Despite their frustrations.

Q. — My doctor recently put
me on a low-sodium diet for
high blood pressure.
Everything tastes so blah it’s
hard for me to resist the salt-
shaker.
Does it really matter that
much if I slip up occasionally
and put salt on my egg or in-
dulge in some pretzel sticks?
A. — Food without salt can
certainly taste bland but you
really should try to avoid
temptation and follow the
doctor’s orders. Excessive
sodium intake can make suc-
cessful treatment of blood
pressure more difficult.
Americans love salt. We
consume an average of more
than two teaspoons each day
and that works out to about
eight pounds a year. For
someone with hypertension
even a teaspoon a day would be
too much.
Most of what we take in
doesn’t even come from the
saltshaker. Almost half is
"hidden” from view in
processed foods. Use of the
saltshaker in cooking or at the
Since you belong in the second
group you should follow your
doctor’s instructions to avoid
the saltshaker. And be wary of
processed foods.
Canned and dry soup,
sauerkraut, pickles, pretzels,
olives, canned vegetables,
cheese, tomato juice, ketchup,
breakfast cereals, frozen
dinners, bread, instant pudding,
cake and ice cream also have
significant levels of sodium.
Q. — I suffer from chronic
constipation. My doctor
recently prescribed a laxative
called Dulcolax (bisacodyl) to
help relieve my discomfort.
No sooner did I start taking
the drug than J developed
trouble breathing — wheezing
and coughing.
My doctor says the laxative
couldn’t be responsible but
whenever I stop taking the
medicine the symptoms
disappear and as soon as I start
again the asthma comes back.
What’s going on?
A. — Your doctor is right and
wrong simultaneously. The
active ingredient in your

dinner table only accounts for
about one-third of the day’s
ration. The rest comes from
foods naturally high in sodium
or from drinking water with a
high sodium content.
The evidence that salt con-
tributes to hypertension is
overwhelming. It would be
impossible to list all the studies
which have correlated sodium
intake with blood pressure but
here are just a few examples:
Inland villagers who live on
the Solomon Islands cook with
fresh water and use almost no
salt. They do not develop
hypertension when they get
older. People who are
genetically identical and live on
offshore islands use salty sea
water to cook with. They have a
much higher incidence of high
blood pressure.
Researchers report much the
same story after studying
populations as diverse as
African nomads, Alaskan
Eskimos and Brazilian Indians.
But when salt is added to the
diet the incidence of hyper-
tension soars.
Most people don’t have to
worry about how much salt they
eat. Eighty percent of the
American population won’t get
high blood pressure no matter
how much sodium they take in.
But the other 20 percent are
"T •, ,’\‘l
genetically susceptible and
should cut back.
■ w-r: e
laxative, bisacodyl, won’t cause
breathing problems. But the
Dulcolax tablets also contain a
dye called Tartrazine (FDAC
Yellow No. 5) and it is this
“inactive” ingredient that is
creating trouble.
..Tartrazine is the most widely
used coloring agent in the
country. It is found in a great
many drugs, toothpastes,
cosmetics and all kinds of
prepared foods, especially
desserts.
Unfortunately, some people
are allergic to this dye and
develop asthma or hives when
they come into contact with it.
People who have an allergy to
aspirin are quite often sensitive
to tartrazine.
Your breathing difficulties
are undoubtedly due to the
presence of this dye in the
laxative. Ask your doctor for a
different drug, one that doesn’t
contain FDAC Yellow No. 5.

Graedon in care of this
