Lop Off Many Heads.

NORFOLK, VA. June 1s,-President
Harry st. George Tucker. OF the James

official statement explaining the action
OF the board OF directors In declaring
for director-gcneral of the exposi-
tion. Mr.. Tucker says that the &C.
tion should create no misappreiiensior
In the public mind, as 1t Is taken tc
concentrate authority in one man ir
order to secure prompt and qhek &C
ton upon exposition policies on ap-
preparations and legislation.
He said that at this time 1t had be-
come apparent that onc-man authority
instead OF authority vested in.sever
officials was necessary to insure the
management of the exposition. and fol
this reason the directors acted. select
ing Mr.. James NJ. Barr for the direc
ltor-generalship because he had beer
named as the disbursing officer of tn
bankers and railroads. who bough
5000 900 OF the exposition bonds.
Following the action OF the director
Yesterday steps will be taken to cur
/! tail expenses by reducing the nurnbe
| of officials. Every department will
lose from one-third to one-half OF it
clerks and employees.
