ATTEND THE MEETING.

Every one interested in the matter OF accep,

Medical College Of Virgnia--and all should be
should attend the meeting Tuesday night at the
Chamber Of Commerce. The views and advice
OF al will be interesting and valuable. Every
one who has something to say should say It
and those who have not should listen and think.
Having heard and having pondered what was
heard all should be prepared to stand back Of
the judgment formed and to let the council and
the administrative board know what that iudg
mcnt is Members of the council and of the
board Will be present, OF course They will talk
and hear for themselves. but final judgment rests
with the people of Richmond
THIS meeting should be productive of good.
The offer Of the Medical college was made last
August and in December the offer has neither
been accepted nor rejected. How much of this
delay is due to the system OF government under
which we live and how much Of it is due 10 the
individuals composing the legislative and adj
ministrattye branches Of that government We do
not know That the delay is the fault of any
systom or Of any man men not sure
Just now We care little The point is that further
delay is unnecessary; that something should be
done; that something be done The whole
matter is in tangle. but it is not Gordian knot
that must be cut II can be unrayeled and the
meeting at the Chamber Of Commerce should
have the result of unraveling It,
II will have that result II those having ideas
will attend and make those ideas known
Whether from member of the chamber of the
council OF the administrative board just plain
citizen ideas are needed to settle this question
which after all should not be so difficult of set
tlement Attend the meeting and If you have
something to say say it,

GO TO IT. RICHMOND.

Better late than never. Atlanta entered the
field in competition with other cities for one OF
the twelve regional reserve banks which, under
the new currency system, are to be established
in different cities throughout the country, before
the currency bill was made law by the presi-
dents signature. They began the fight even
before the bill was passed by the senate. Rich
mond has not entered It yet, but with her mani
fest advantages over Atlanta the handicap Of
time is not too great to be overcome, II the
bankers and business men Of the city Will Just
get busy. Meetings viii be held this afternoon
TO discuss the question. The ViroiHiaH hopes that
the Business Mems club and the bankers will
both have fun meetings and that the two organ!-
cations will get together to inaugurate a real
campaign. Other organizations and individuals
should unite with them without loss Of time.

Now ! wish to say that I am in full sympathy
with the movement for better medical college
and We should all work together with all proper
methods to obtain second to none In eff
cheney; but am opposed to subordlnating thu
rights OF the citizen to that end Nor do I con-
cur in the belief, that, unless the college staff
obtains cmplete control Of our hospital our
college will suffer incurabe setback.
! heartily believe that the patients under the
care of those doctors not on the college stafr
when properly approached will permit the coll
lege to them for teaching purposes know
that those patients under the care of the college

number Of doctors-will permit being used.
Yet this free use of the hospital is not enough

stituton to have complete control of its citizens
we are charged with Jack Of sympathy with their

the city wen afford to build. equip and
maintain a modern hospital. It is good business

patients for teaching purposes provided the

for the hospital the services of pathologist

To do this will not require a very cons der
able expense. Give the administrative board
the power to select small staff of physicians
