VI, No. 1 JANUARY, 1958 fchmoad, Virginia A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT The New Year 198 marks the midyear of the Virginia State Bar. It is the year of our Twentieth Anniversary. We can take justifiable pride in our accomplish- ments. They are too munerous to enmner- ate. The medium of this simple message is one of them, the Virginia Bar News. Our present well established position represents a consistent growth, achieved by the labor of many memelrs. The activities of the current bar year appear to me to have head a slow beginning for many reasons. Ilowever, I am confident that these activities will increase in inten- sity and accomplishment. To this end, 1 pledge the Bar my time, my efforts and my loyalty. We have manty plans and projects S The Institute in Richmond on February 11 THIRD ANNUAL TIDEWATER TAX CONFERENCE saturday, Jan, 18 Norfolk Yacht and Country Club ABA SOUTHERN REGIONAL MEETING Atlanta, Georgia Feb. 19-22 (See P. 3) * * * * * * 1958 JUDICIAL CONFERENCE The Conference will be held at the Chamberlin Hotel May 1 and 2, con- vening at 2 P.M. on M1ay 1.
