Leading Connecticut manufacturers
met with Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin
To-Day to discuss postwar manufac-
turing plans for employment.
With international trade as the
principal subject, the Governor told
the industrialists:
I'VE all know that when this war
is over our Connecticut industries
will not only be competing with
those in other states, but a new era
of international trade and COMPETE
ton will be ushered In. 1t Is our
fundamental task now to plan how
Connecticut products can b-st be
promoted and sold abroad to assure
full employment here at home. Your
state government Is now engaged in
broad postwar planning program.
Not the least of these plans concern
our potential export trade. It Is our
aim to render every possible assist
ance to our industries because we
firmly believe that the major answer
to postwar employment lies in the
ability OF our factories to maintain
a high rate Of peacetime produc-
ton"
