Editor NrgInian;
Sit have read with not little interest your
editorials on the Richmond VICE question and
wish to extend my deepest appreciation for the
earnest, patriotic and moral decision you have
taken.
have noticed and am pleased with the sup
port you give to every public issue involving
morality. 1t would be a glorious day for Rich
mond Journalism II all the papers in Richm ond
could know the influence of journalism's con-
tribution towards the perfection of society.
our paper, being young, has naturally had a
hard struggle for supremacy. but now, to many
minds there is doubt of its supremacy in Nir-
@inia, The forces of righteousness have and
are prevailing over those OF ain.
At tho first The Virsinian took strong and
decided decision on gambling at the Jamestown

The Richmond Virsinar has done Virginia a

greatest of all reforms-the vice Issue MAY its
editorials not until segregation has been
wiped, not out of Richmond only, but also out
Of Norfolk Newport News, LynchburG and Roa-
roke. The Richmond Evening Journal is de-
featlns its own argument used against prohibi-
tion. In its ant-prohibition editorials it de-
clared that prohibition laws could not be
forced and, therefore Virginia should nor have
hem. And now 1t does want the laws Of
Virginia. declaring segregation illegal enforced.
By what logic does the editor arrive at his
conclusons' What confidence does he expect
