The shrapnel was timed to burst at

MAY REAPP0|NT SOME
New Plan contemplates Naming q
Federal Director for Each Road,
Responsible Only to the Rail-

Washington, May 23.-Director Gen.
eral McAdoo has relieved from active
duty as executive manager. of his road
every railroad president in the Unit
ed States. A federal director for each
road, responsible only to the railroad
administration. will be appointed.
In many cases the president of the
road may be named federal director.
To safeguard the interests OF stock
holders and maintain the Individual
ity of each railway, federal directors,
whenever possible, will be appointed
from among the operating officers of
the property, the director general an

any roads working organization un-

Huntington Removed First.
The first act of the director general
today in executing this new policy
was the removal of G. w. Huntington,
president of the Virginia railway, as
chief operating officer, on the charge
that he failed to carry out promptly
the Railroad administration instruc-
tons regarding the repair and main
tenance of his line.
This was thought to be the fore
runner of similar disposition of a
number of other railroad presidents,
but announcement of the plan for
wholesale replacement of railway
presidents by federal directors came
as a general surprise at this time.

A large proportion of present rail-
way presidents will be named to man.

cases the presidents will be required
to resign their official positions with
the companies land to become the ex-
elusive representatives of the United

Consequently their salaries will be
paid by the government and they can
receive no pay from the railway cor
poration. It became known tonight
that most of Mr.. McAdoo's principal
assistants of the Railroad administra-

Regulations Effective July !, to

nOunced.
Not only oilers, but all draft regis
trants engaged in what are held to be

hailed before local draft boards and
given the choice of new job or the

the list. But those who will be reach
ed by the new regulation also include
clerks in stores, domestics, walters
and, bartenders, theatre ushers and at

by the order.
Deferred classification granted on

Explaining the new regulation and
the necessity for it, General Crowder
said:
"The war has SO far disorganized

"There is a popular demand for
organization of man power but no

Steps to prohibit idleness and non
essential occupation will be welcomed
by our people.

not effectively employed the choice
between military service and effective
employment. Every man, in the draft
age, at least, must work or fight.
