In the framework of conventional Regge theory we present a common description of total photon-proton cross-section and proton structure functions in the region $0 \leq Q^2 \leq 5 \ {\rm GeV}^2$. Using it as an initial condition in the perturbative QCD evolution equation, we describe structure functions at any $Q^2$ and $x$ - including the small $x$ region explored at HERA.Comment: 10 pages + 7 figures available on request, Plain TeX, Preprint LPTHE Orsay 94-3
