Lewis S. Rosenstiel of Schenley Industries proposes a national income target of $300 billion by 1954 with deficit financing until reached. He favors 5 percent wage raises for five years, 4 percent productivity gains per hour, and tax cuts to boost demand while aiming for $50 billion yearly tax revenue to balance the budget. He also backs foreign aid, flexible investment, and higher overseas wages. The proposal invites debate among business leaders and labor.
