WASHINGTON T The distance " from Trieste to Paris is about half the distance between New York and Chicago. But the trip by the fastest train-the Sim plon Orient Express takes nearly twice as long One reason is that so much time is wasted with red tape at the border of each coun- try. During this trip you are awakened no fewer than twelve different times by customs, pass port, and monetary inspectors wanting to look at your baggage, stamp your passport or check on the amount of money in your wallet
 Each time you are awakened you say to yourself: Abraham Lincoln was certainly right"
 In other words, if Lincoln hadn't made the difficult and momentous decision that the Federal Union must be preserved, travellers cross ing the United States today pro- bably would he showing passports at half a dozen state lines and we would be suffering the same kind of headaches which have al- most capsized Europe.

The almighty Jones Hi Dragons
playing professional basketball,
conquered four teams at the state
tournament TO become ASAA
Champs for l947-48. The Dragons
defeated the same number Of
teams to become the Central Re
gional Champs.
The Dragons blasted the Cotton
Plant Gagers for their first vic
tory. Eafsie Greenwood was out
of the regional tournament be-
cause of sickness. Back in action
Greenwood chalked up 16, while
his two comrades, John Lefty
Sanders and w. f. Dunn. chalked
up IA and IL respectively Dunn
was out of action during the re-
gional tournament because of i'll
ness. The Dragons took it easy the
last half. Speedy" Given with ex-
pert ball handling and Algier
"Slappy' Nash another Dragon
sharpshooter, carried them thru
to their 59-42 victory.
The afternoon session the Ora
CONS found the Rosston Cagers
red hot but cooled them down to
a 1873 half-time score, and smoth.
cred the Rosston Quintet 1927
paced by W. E. "Boweevel" Dunn
and Lefty" Sanders who rang up
IA points each.
Semi Final
After making it to the semi
finals, the going got tough. The
Golden Dragons met the Helena
Hi Buccaneers who proved to be
as tough as their name. The ORA
CONS got off on a flying start to
ring up 27-l2 half score. In the
last half the Buccaneers, engin-
eered by Bolden. nearly over took
the Dragons in the fourth period.
But luck gave the Dragons the
margin they needed to hold Mil
Ter Hi to a 48-44 victory. High
scorers were Sanders and Dunn.
The Final Game
In the final game the Dragons
met their new enemy who had
an eye on the championship also
Coach Calvin's boys. out for all
It was worth, fought hard to tame
the Okolona Cagers Quintet to a
44-25 half score. Lawrence

feat the Okolona Cagers 1857
Dunn nabbed 81 points to take
the lead from Greenwood, who
scored 20 points in the initial
games of the season. The Dragons
highest score set was 70 points
The Dragons hope TO get crack
at the National Tournament and
my guess they'll get it. There is
no other team in this state that
deserves the chance more than

Malnutdtion Stalks Our Population

49, ONI ROIdCIOH
IN release by the United Press last week, it was brought
out by doctors making an investigation into the health and
medical conditions in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands
that The entire population of the middle and low-income
groups is mdernorished. The national newspapers head
lined the investigation to the effect that these groups in both
Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands are starving.
THIS is unfortunate news to say the least. 1t is a matter Of
common knowledge that the middle and low-income groups
are always the greatest portion Of any population, and any con-
dition which affects those groups adversely become serious
matters and call for immediate and definite action. 1t should
therefore be a matter Of the gravest concern to us that in
these islands the major portion of the population is straving.
AT first thought many in these Islands will express re-
sentiment. It is nothing of which to be proud that a large part
OF our people are starving, and as a proud group we would
naturally hate to see such in print, and spread over the pages
OF newspapers on the continent. But before we run off on tan
gents 1t would be well to look a little below the surface. In
the first place, the investigation was conducted by a group of
doctors, all members of the American Medical Association.
Secondly, it was at the request Of Secretary of the Interior
kFug that the survey was made, and it was their report to Sec
rotary Krug. 1t must be remembered that when doctors speak
OF starving they do not always mean that the people are act
uany without food to eat. AS we understand it, doctors think
OF malnutrltlon as starving, since the body, while receiving
enough to keep it alive, still lacks some Of the essential foods
to make for good health and resist disease and other condi
tionS.
FROM that standpont-it would do well to look such al
report squarely in the face. We should dismiss any thought
mat these doctors had any other motive than to report the
situation as they saw it. And it must be further conceded that
they We're FULLY competent to conduct. the investigation. Com
ing then, TO the point, it is up to us to look about us and take
definite action with reference to this most grievious condition
