Stevenson outlines Illinois industrial growth plan if governor
Former Senator Adlai E Stevenson proposes sweeping state led industrial development if elected Illinois governor. He would push exports, new technology, retraining, and relocation for structurally unemployed workers. A new office would analyze the economy, promote diversification, and support basic industries. He favors a state development bank, pension fund asset investments in high tech, and improved rail and port infrastructure. He also calls for plant closing notice laws to curb layoffs and suggests engaging both state and federal commerce to attract foreign investment.
