No Virginia Exhibit at Worlds Fair This Season
The New York World's Fair reopens next month and Virginia will not have an exhibit. There is no money to rent space or resume operations. The Virginia World Fair Commission did not recommend continuing the exhibit. The governor omitted any budget appropriation and the General Assembly took no action. Estimated cost to continue ranged from 15 000 to 20 000. The original 35 000 appropriation in 1938, plus 30 000 more authorized by the governor, largely spent before the fair ended.
