Industrial zones each to constitute
virtually a complete economic unit for
war work are to be created by the war
Industries board throughout the country
Complete manufacture of war goods,
from the raw material to the finished
product. Is aimed at Thus, It Is be
lieved, wasteful hauling of partly fin
ished material from one part or tne
country to another will he eliminated.
Charles A. Otis, of Cleveland, manu
facturer, and members of the Chamber
of Commerce will undertske to organise
the sones. One tentative plan which
has been discussed Is to make each
Federal Remrve district a tone.
The zone organizations are to be built
up around chambers of commerce which
will act as information and sen lee
bureaus both for the Government and
manufacturers seeking contracts, each
zone bureau, will be headed by an In
dustrial expert.
Under this organization plan manu
facturers who buy parts for assembling
will be Instructed as to firms In their
zone offering such parts. Factories will
be Informed of raw material close at
hand and the wasteful practice of send
Inir across several States for supplies
obtainable nearer home will be abolished.
Under the new scheme being worked
out by the war industries board, unused
facilities thrown Into Idleness by cessa
tion of peace-time demands will be re
tired for war purposes.
Flexibility of the Industrial war ma
chine will be obtained by this step. It
Is belleied Sharp curtailments In all
directions are quietly being put Into

labor and transportation. Warning of
Impending curtailments can be dissemi

arrangements for needed war work to
replace the curtailed activity made
Smoother readjustments of Industry will
be possible Manufacturers In the va
rious zones will have accessible sources
of Information close at' hand regarding

N.Y. HERALD CONTROL

tended for Employes
Xew Tork, May 15.
Future owne-ehlp and control of the
New York Herald, now that Ita pre
siding genius, James Gordon Bennett,
la dead, form a subject of conjecture
for acquaintances of the late publisher.
Whether the Herald will pass Into
,the hands of a group of employes of
the piper, as Mr. James Gordon Bennett
once planned and editorially announced,
Is a question that cannot be answered
until th opening of the "Commodore's"
will.
it was. before he married the Bar.
oness de neuter that Mr. Bennett ran.
ceivea tne notion of making his chief
newspaper a community property at his
deatn. Following his marriage he
made a hasty trip to America and spent
most of his eight-day visit with his
lawyer, presumably redrafting his will.
The young Baron de Reuter had betn
a prime favorite with his stepfather,
and unquestionably a generous pro.
lslan was made for him aa well as for
his mother. No great share of the es
tate, however. Is likely to go to Mrs.
Isaae Bell, Mr. Bennett's sister, or to
aordon Knox Bell, his nephew. From
both he had been long estranged.
The valuable block which the Herald
Building coders Is not Bennett Property.
With the explratlon'of the ground lease
three years hence It will revert to the
Manlco estate. .
One of the most Important considera
tions which occupied Mr. Bennett on
his 'last visit to New York was the
problem of finding a new home for
the Herald. Negotiations were begun
looking to the erection of ' another
Herald building on Pennsylvania Rait

den, president for twenty-one jears of

ward for his part In the "extra million"
fund for war purposes The speakers
were presented to the convention by the
Rev. Illnoon V. Howlett, pastor of the
First Baptist Church of this city, who
Is chairman of the shore committee of
arrangements
President Coleman, who has been
back from France less than a month,
did not touch upon his experiences on
the baatletronts, because he Is to sub
mit a detailed report at the war ses
sion of the convention on Thursday. He
thanked Mayor Bacharach, Mr. Ayer and
Dr. Swetland, president of Peddle Insti
tute, Hightstown, who spoke for the lay
men of New Jerse).
President Coleman referred to the
declaration of faith concerning the issues
of the war prepared by the Baptists of
Great Britain, and addressed to the
Haptlsts of America. The full text of
the address will be printed In the Baptist
annual for 1918.
With reference to the work of the
war commission Mr. Coleman gave great
praise to Dr. Guy C. Lamson. gen
eral secretary, and Dr. Samuel J-ane Bat
ten, both of the American Baptist Pub
lication society, which has Its head
quarters In Philadelphia, and the Itev.
J. Y. Altchlson, of the Homo Mission
Society.
Southern Datplsts Co-operating
Mr. Coleman spoke of the cordial rela
tions now existing between the northern
and southern Baptists, and of the co
operation in the big camps.
Of his war experience, Mr. Coleman
said
"It has deepened my conviction as to
the spiritual character of the fight In
which we are engaged. It has strength
ened my belief that no price will be too
great to pay for the triumph of our
cause."
Referring to the million-dollar drive,
the speaker praised the work of Mr.
Ayer and Fred P. Haggard, of New
York, campaign director.
The report of the committee on State
conventions was not encouraging so fr
a Pennsylvania is concerned, largely
incroaaia Interest was reported for New
Jersey.,
Baptist delegates to the Federal Coun

resorted, that aa a clearing house for
