EPES PROPOSAL STRENGTHENS
MERGER BILL, BOOKER SAYS
Senator Believes Amendment Providing for Consolida
ton When Medical College Is Turned Over to State
Debt-Free, Will Overcome Big Objection.

Added strength in favor OF the
passage OF Senate bill No. !. pro-
vidng for the consolidation OF the
University of Virginia Medical De.
partment and the Medical College OF
Nirg mia. and the establishment OF
the merged institution in Richmond
is confidently expected Ia develop
tomorrow by Senator Marshall r.
Booker, OF Haitian. patron of the
measure.
The measure is made a special and
continuing order in the upper house
at 1880 O'Clock. when Senator Louis
:. Epcs. OF Nottoway, will offer an
amendment to the bill providing that
the merger OF the colleges become
effective when the Medical College
of NirE .nia turns over to the State
it's Richmond property free of all en-
cumbranccs.
Senator Booker last night cx-
pressed himself as much pleased
with the proposed amendment. and
feels certain that II will sweep away
many objections which have been
previously raised.
The amendment means" declared
Senator Booker. that the Medical
College of Virginia will he turned

| Senator Epes will wipe out many
objections 10 the measure In It's
present form" the Senator from
Halifax continued. The principal
feature of objection to the bill has
been that the State of Virginia, II
the measure passes. would assume
the Richmond institutions liabilities
oe 100000. With this obstacle re-
moved there can be no doubt that
Inc measure will take a new lease
on life. Just how much strength
will be added I cannot say. but i,
will surely develop when the measure
comes up Monday.
TT may be said that the measure
has not only taken new lease on
life, but 1t has an excellent oppor-
tunity of passage.
Senator Booker called attention to
the fact that should tho two medical
schools be merged and brought 20
