Mr. Berg died of a heart attack at his home on Oct. 28. Born in Russia, he came to the Corn, Okla. community as a young man. He had served in conference publication work for over 35 years. He was manager of the publishing house for 21 years, and had been editor of the “Zionsbote,” the”Vorwaerts” (later the “Hillsboro Journal”) and the”Christian Leader.”
