country has taken several tenta-

planned economy, and before il
takes further steps, some of which
already are envisaged, the public
should be shown the problems in

A planned economy is held up as
a national program with clearly de-

hazard progress in response to econ

That way it sounds fine and whole
some and everybody is for it. But

Under a planned economy, the
production of industry would be
