Chamber Targets State Goals For Coordinated Growth
The Illinois State Chamber of Commerce announced a drive to set state goals for aligning economic development with government spending. Lester W. Brann led a conference with regional sessions planned and invited labor and government officials to participate without directing the process. Caterpillar chair William L. Naumann warned against financing rising state costs via taxes on business, while University of Illinois Professor James Heins predicted Illinois will regain leadership by 1976 though fiscal pressure may ease as enrollments fall.
