    The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York is one of a number of legal corporations the group uses to represent its interests. Other corporations used include the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania, the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses and the International Bible Students Association , based in London, England. In the majority other countries of the world, local corporations have been established to facilitate the organization's work.

    Three "new" corporations have been formed:

    1) Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, which will supervise
    matters of a religious and educational nature. This includes organizing
    the preaching work, holding conventions, etc. The directors and officers
    of this corporation are primarily brothers who work closely with the
    Service department in Patterson. Brother William Van de Wall is the
    president of this corporation.

    2) Religious Order of Jehovah's Witnesses, which cares for matters
    pertaining to those in Special Full-Time service, including Bethelites,
    Special Pioneers, Traveling Overseers, etc. Brother Patrick LaFranca is
    the president of this corporation.

    3) Kingdom Support Services, Inc., which handles design & engineering of
    buildings and holds titles to vehicles used by the Society.

    Didn't Russell form several corporations? It seems to be that I remember an article that mentioned one that had the word "cemetery" in it as well as "American." Did these corporations have anything to do with Russell's attempt to hide his assets during the divorce proceedings involving his wife, Maria?

    I do not see any women represented. I doubt if there are any minorities ( hard to tell with just names)

    Should not someone remind them that this is the 21 Century?
