Planning Unit
In Works For
Coastal Plains
ATLANTA (UPI)—A plan for
creation .of a coastal plains re
gional planning commission will
be presented to the U.S. Office
of Regional Development next
Wednesday by representatives
of three southeastern states.
Representatives from Geor
gia, North Carolina and South
Carolina put the final touches
on the plan Thursday and were
set to present it to the gover
nors of the three states. Ap
proval by the governors is con
sidered a formality.
If approved by the governors
and the U.S. Department of
Commerce, the commission
would provide social and eco
nomic planning for 159 counties
in the three states. The Con
gress last year approved such
Appalachia-style planning com
missions.
One of the major areas of
planning would be industrial de
velopment. Other areas are
iood processing, wood process
ing, seafood processing, tour
ism, recreation, chemicals,
transportation, electronics and
metals fabrication.
The planners say the region
is in serious economic trouble
because of changes in a pre
dominantly agricultural econ
omy. They describe it as “an
“agricultural area with very
poor soil.”

US Baptist Groups
Pledge Cooperation
DETROIT (UPI) —Two ma
jor U.S. Baptist groups pledged
greater cooperation today but
ruled out organic union of their
16 million members.
Delegates to the annual
Southern Baptist Convention,
which winds up a four-day
meeting today, also voted 4 to 1
to keep next year’s convention
in Miami closed to contempora
ry issues such as the death of
God and changing ethics.
Newly elected SBC President
Franklin Faschall and Carl

Tiller, president of the Ameri
can Baptist Convention, pledged
their churches to cooperate
more fully “in Christian work”
but said, “a federated church is
not the answer to the problems
of Christianity.”
Faschall, a minister from
Nashville, Tenn., said he was
“encouraged by the approach
to some groups are making in
the area of Christian love and
brotherhood."

to both the ABC and th» SBC,
said the dual affiliation “has
worked well for us. I a«n not
that thousands of
churches suddenly become dual
ly aligned but I have commit
ted it for consideration.”
However, both men stressed
that dual affiliations would be
to individual churches and
not for the 15,000 delegates at
the convention to decide. A
joint committee of several
Baptist denominations was said
to be planning to 6lt in at
various ecumenical discussions
this year.
