Rail Tracks Blown Up
On Haifa Line After
Bombing Of Station
BY the Associoisd Press

JERUSALEM, Nov. 11.-Railway
tracks were blown up at three places
along the LYDIA -Haifa line early
today in the vicinity of the Ras Ell
Ain railway station, which had been
destroyed by bombs IL hours pre-
viously.
Several mines also were found on
the Jaffa-Tel Aviv railway line last
night. No casualties were reported.
Police sought three Jews whom
they accused of placing the bombs
which destroyed the Ras Ell Ain sta
ton, killed one Arab and injured
three British sappers who were try
ing to remove the explosive charges.
Authorities pointed out the SINH
larity between yesterdays incident
and the method employed by the
Jewish underground organization
Irgun Zvai Leumi, when a Jerusa-
lem station was destroyed last week
Four days ago the group said it
would continue to attack railway
installations.

Two City Projects

We suggest that the mayor and city coun-
ell and the citizens of Pascagoula at large
begin to give some thought to the necessity
of building new sidewalks and of restoring
the local cemeteries which have fallen into
a state of ~disrepair. These are separate pro-
jects. INC admittedly they can be looked at
from two different viewpoints, either as pri-
vate problems of no interest to the municipal
government, or as legitimate public functions
affecting the general interest and justifying
the small tax levy necessary to carry them
out.
None of us takes any particular JOY in
paying taxes, but good government. clean
cities, adequate public services cannot exist
of course without them. And we think it the
part of common sense and good government
to undertake both sidewalk building and
graveyard maintenance as a community
problem. All of us walk along the sidewalks,
and death is as certain .as taxes, as the old
saying tells us. Many families nave moves
away, leaving large areas of the g%raveyards
INTENDED. The proper thing would be for
the city to undertake the upkeep after re-
ceiving deed. AS for the sidewalks, they
could be built a lot cheaper and to more eff
ficient civic use if they were undertaken as
an overall project, rather than as a piecemeal
effort.

Unjustified Highway Priorities

We believe that the state highway depart
ment is exhibiting poor Judgment, to say
the very least, in It's continued i~nattention
to the dangerous condition of Highway 80
between P~ascagoula and Gautier. The on
dition of this road is not simply a matter of
danger to life and limb. Because of this we
believe the repair Of this stretch has a very
clear priority over any other maintenance
project on the highway from the Louisiana
to the Alabama borders.
That, however, is not the light in which
the highway department sees the situation.
They have already given the 90 ahead to W.
projects of considerably less Importance and
IN doing so we believe the department stands
con> icted of faulty judgement by its own
acts. One of these projects has been the ex-
tension of the double highway at Gulfport.
The second is the paving of a black-top
stretch below Bay st. Louis. Each of these
Is q major undertaking, and undoubtedly the
critical repairs to the three mile stretch be-
tween Pascagoula and Gautier could nave
been made for comparable cost.
Not many people realize it, but Highway
90 in Jackson county, from the Alabama line
to Harrison county, was constructed by Jack
son county bonds. with the exception of three
eighths of a mile in Pascagoula. We built
this road, not the state highway department.
But now it is an integral and vital part of
the state system. 1t seems to us an ~increas-
mgly fragrant discrimination that the state
now will not even address itself to the prop

County Health Office

A proposal comes from within the state
health department to group Jackson n
Harrison counties under one administrative
set-up" with headquarters to be established
1t Gulfport. 1t is said THAT this will facilitate
handling the health problems of both oun
flies and that it will make possible the es-
Enlistment Of a central laboratory in Gulf
port and thus will meet the need for a lab
oratory which now cannot be filled on a
county by county basis. DR.. Hedmeg of the
jackson county health department, who is
urging the adoption Of the new set-up and
who presumably @oul dbe transferred to
Guifport If it were adopted, assured MEM
bers of the Pascagoula Rotary club this week
that the plan would otRleave Jackson coun-
ty without the services of a full-time health
officer.
: Nevertheless, after giving this proposal
careful study, we are convinced that Jack
son county public health work will not be
benefited by the plan, and we think a pos
sibility would be created whereby the pres
ent public health services, not yet adequate
to the needs of this community and county,
might even slip back to the very unsatisfact-
Dry condition of Al year ago when we were
forced to get by with a part-time health Off
Ger. DR.. Hedmeg asserts that a county the size
of Jackson county would not be deprived of a
full-time officer. He says also that the plan
Is intended to solve the present shortage in
health officers by permitting the administra-
tive set-up to serve smaller counties. How
ever, since only Jackson and Harrison coun-
ties are involved in the present proposal,
with the possible addition of Hancock at a
later date. we fail to see a logical necessity for
the proposal. Harrison and Jackson counties
both have health officers at present. If head
quarters are to be removed to Gulfport,
and if Jackson county is still to maintain
> full time officer.swe fail to see how any
saving in personnel is to be solved or the
Shortage of trained health men relieved. AS
for the establishment of a laboratory at Gulf
port. we should suggest that logical proceed
IRE is to get the laboratory first, that is get
the bill through the Legislature, and then
proceed with the consolidation of counties

BY NoLLE T. E

The mills Of the Gods grind
slow but exceedingly fine, ac-
cordins TO an old Greek axiom, a
saying which might be paraphras-
ed in Mississippi today to read;
''The affairs of state move slow
but not always exceedingly fine"
This IS true in many cases, but
we refer particularly this week
to the inactivity in the office of
Attorney General Greek L. Rice
in the settlement of the Mississfp-
pi5Alabama line dispute. Au-
thority for the settlement in the
form Of House Bill No. 95 was
signed by Governor Thomas L.
Bailey on April 4th.
At that time, the Chronicle
Star and Advertiser said in a news
story, "A survey by engineers
selected by The two states and a
Uhiteu States Supreme Court rul-
ing in a Friendly suit to be filed
by Mississippi are the only Steps
remaining before the line is le-
gally and definitely established.
THAI story was written on the
best Of authority, but four months
have passed since the writing of
that story and the settlement OF
the 129-year-old controversy is no
nearef today than it was then, as
far az we can learn. Meanwhile,
lawlessness still reigns in the
Free State of Stateline'', the rou-
lette wheels continue to spin, the
dice rattle in the cup, and the slot
machines clank on their merry
way.
Thousands of dollars still pour
weekly into the tills of the gam
blers from the pockets of Jack
son county citizens and the ques-
tion Of the ownership of tidal
lands and the rich oil deposits
they are thought to hold is no
nearer a settlement.
{
The fact that you have not read
further news stories concerning
this settlement in recent months
is not the result of laxness on the
part of the editorial staff of this
newspaper. We have not only had
our ears to the ground but we
have attempted to force a release
by frequent telephone calls to
Jackson.

In the half dozen telephone
conversations we have had with
Mr.. Rice, we have learned only
that ,a) These things take time
(b) Governor Bailey has been
sick and (c) we will be notified
when some nave is made.
In a telephone conversation
this week with Attorney General
Mcqueen of Alabama, we We're
told that it's Greeks move now"
and that Alabama is standing by
for the friendly suit Mississippi
should file. under the terms of the
legislation passed last spring. So
it seems that a definite answer is
not forthcoming and that, so far.
no move has been made.
FRANKLY, we do not feel that
those answers arc satisfactory to
US Or fair to our readers who
have a right to know what is GO
irg on ami who Justly expect
us to keep them informed on
che progress Of this vital issue.
The movement TO settle this
..ine came in the first place as the
result Of action Oh the part os a
Jackson county grand jury which
asked the Board of Supervisors
TO have the line settled, ThS
newspaper carried on a campd'gn
to have just this accomplished
and our files show stories running
for .Wo months, beginning On
February 8 with one entitled "Su-
pervisors Ask Governors Aid in

Between those two stories, came
several weeks of efforts to hive
the bill written, introduced, and
signed and the money apporpri-
ated for the survey and court az
ton We were proud of our pat
in the movement to settle the
line, not frola q standpoint of
prestige nearly as much as the
fact that we felt we were per-
forming a service to the county
and state.

right in their moves to have the
line established and we feel that
is falling down on the
job by not carrying through, now
