CHIEFS PRAISE THE LAW
Heads of Police Force Say Number
of Arrests Has Been Greatly
Reduced Under Prohibition

The Richmond Virginian presents
official reports from large num-
ber of the cities of the State show
ing the results of one month of pro-
hibition in Virginia.
The Virginian says in only one
city previously wet do the figures
presented show, on their face, any
but the most gratifying results,
Alexandria indicates an increase OF
arrests, but that is at once explain
ed by the chief of police, who says
that heretofore no charges have
been recorded against plain "drunks,"
who have been permitted to re-
turn to their homes as soon as they
sobered up.
Under the present law this cam
not be done. All drunken persons
must be arrested and all who are ar
rested must face the court.
The enormous reduction not only
in drunkenness, but in all forms 'ot
crime is seen in practically every
one of the reports which follow:
The following is Chief Goods's en-
PLANTATION:
"At your request, I am sending
YOU by mail the following report of
