A Business Proposition

With the motives of those who are responsible for
the recent order Of the treasury department closing inter-
national bridges over the Rio Grande between the hours
of 9 p. m. and s a. m. we have no dispute.
There are many arguments IN favor of the part time
closing Of these bridges over the Rio Grande with which
The Brownsville Herald is in absolute sympathy.
On the other hand, there are many arguments in
favor OF the continuous free passage over the bridges be-
tween Brownsville and MatamOros, or at least of a later
closing and an earlier opening hour than is provided un-
der the ruling announced on Wednesday of this week.
III should be born in mind that Matamoros is in Mexico
and that Brownsville is in the United States, and that as
the two largest cities of their respective territories, there
is a considerable amount Of interminglng both social and
business which il seriously interfered with by closing all
traffic between the two at 9 o'clock at night until 8
o'clock in the morning.
Since the advent Of prohibition, it has become popular
to refer to all who journey across the border into Mexico
as being in search of pleasures prohibited, nominally at
least, by law in the United States.
Again we should bear in mind that a considerable
portion of the traffic between Brownsville and Matamoros
is occasioned by those engaged in necessary business
ventures.
AS witness to the impracticability of the new closing
rules, take the case of a tourist intending to leave by train
from Matamoros to Monterrey or Mexico City.
Train leaves Matamoros at $50 a. m, and the inter
national bridge opens at s a. m.
Those who have had experience with customs in any
country will admit at Once that it is a practical impos-
sibility for that tourist to pass the Mexican customs and
then drive a mile to the station and arrive in time to make
his train.
On the other hand, suppose a citizen of Matamoros
desires to 60 by airplane from Brownsville to Monterrey
or Mexico City. Planes leave Brownsville at 7:30 a. m.
over one line and 8 a. m. over another.
In either case it would be necessary for our traveller
20 spend the night either in Matamoros or Brownsville In
order to make his connections.
We are certain that a calm consideration of the
problem presented in the case of Brownsville and Mat
amOrOs will result at least in a modification of the treas
ury ruling to more reasonable hours of closing traffic be-
tween the two cities and the two countries.

The cereals are primarily energy
foods. They provide a high calo-ic
intake, but need TO be supplemented
by milk and by other foods in order
to serve the needs OF the living
organism The cereals constitute the
main portions Of the diets OF most
Of the people in the world. They
are usually digestible, although Ger
tain heavy breads, such as bumper
nickel, are digested with difficulty.
Rice Is one OF the cereals which
constitutes a tremendous portion OF
the diets OF human beings. A GER
tain disease known as beriberi Is
due 10 the fact that the rice has
been polished. Polishing rice re
moves the vitamin B. There are
various forms Of nervous and diges-
tive disorders which are associated
with an absence Of vitamin B from
the diet.
Most OF the cereals are rich in
carbohydrate. For example, three
tablespoonfuls Of farina. weighing
about II grams will contain three
grams Of protein, one-half gram
fat and 81 grams Of carbohydrates.

Efficiency in Aviation

We're interested in commercial aviation, as an ex-
preston OF better living and greater neighborliness. In
terestng, therefore, is the announcement by the National
Air Transport Division of the United Air Lines that 90. 7
per cent Of the total mileage scheduled for mail and for
trl-motOred passenger transport planes on the Chicago
Dallas route was completed. And since this route was
established, more than 90 per cent of the scheduled
mileage has been flown.
The NAT continues that passenger travel from New
York to the Southwest has increased 30 per cent in July
over previous months. The air distance from New York
to Dallas by Chicago is 1901 miles, and from Cleveland
1888 miles. 1T is possible" the A warns, to "have
breakfast in Cleveland, lunch in Kansas City, and dinner
in Dallas"
