A W Robertson Westinghouse Electric Manufacturing Co chairman attacked planned economy saying it resembles a purged patient and warned against utopian schemes while urging better plans not more. Harriman cited unemployment about four million praised abolition of child labor and urged constructive criticism to avert national decline. He called for changes to the securities act to improve capital flow into heavy industries and stressed cooperation between business and government to preserve good aspects of the recovery program.
