While President Roosevelt has rot

howCV er, given his consent TO have the
Government exhibits remain intact for
a few months until Congress decides
whether t win see fit to aid the project

recently Informed President Harry st.
George Tucker that it was a matter
for Congress only 20 decide. and that
he personally would make no promises.
Should the jamestown Exposition be
reOpened next year It would have to be
conduGsed as private enterprise and
not as a tercentennial celebration of the
first settlement Of old Jamestown. which
has been its purpose by authority of
Congress. Another thing, IL would be

Hampton Roads. At the time of the
proposed reopening our battleships would
