Pardons Galvanize New Mexico Villa Raiders Controversy
Governor Larrrazolo pardoned 16 Villa raiders tied to the Columbus raid of March 9, 1916, prompting strong opposition from American Legion posts in Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Legal actions sought to block releases, with an injunction issued and a December 4 hearing set. The case raises questions about the gubernatorial pardon power and past cases under Governor McDonald.

The Special Revenue Commission urges sweeping changes to New Mexico government and taxation. It recommends centralizing administration, redrawing district boundaries, abolishing several state offices, and shifting duties to create a five member state tax board. The plan envisions five tax districts, optional local offices, and a reduced legislature while preserving key entities, with continued study and reports to follow.
