A bust of Bernard Baruch, statesman and financier, will be presented to the National War College on Friday, the War Department announced today.

The bust, executed by Randolph Evans, will be presented to the college by Herbert Bayard Swope and will be received for the college by its commandant, Vice-Admiral H.W. Hill. It was made possible by contributions of former members of the War Industries Board, one of the agencies with which Baruch served during World War I. Baruch has lectured annually at the War College since the first World War.
