Business Experts
Say NE. To Prosper

Despite tax Of boom in other
parts of the country, New Eng
landers will continue to make
more money, save more and
| spend more on a per capita
basis than their neighbors
across the nation, the sixth
in a nationwide forum series
on the American Business
Outlook" predicted today.
Area leaders looking at the
future of New England and
its progress potential pointed
out that, although this areas
boom period ended back in
the 10th Century, its establish
ed industry, large pool of skill.
ed labor, and unequalled IA
cilities for scientific, inves-
tigation and new industrial
development give New Eng
land more stable long run
future than those areas cur
rently riding the crest of
boom and growth.

President, Arthur D. Little
Company; Hugh Gregg, former
Governor of New Hampshire
and president of Gregg g.
Sons, Nashua; Robert Ryan,
Executive Vice President, Mas

ment Corporation, and Harriet
WilinSky, Sales Manager, Will
liam Filene's Sons, joined with
William Johnson, New Eng
land Bureau Chief of Time"
magazine and William Men
men, Jr,, Executive Vice Pre-
sident of the Mennen Com
pany, Morristown, N. j., TO,
the forum. The discussion was
specially televised on WNAC-
TV, sponsored by Mennen
Company, as part of it's 18th
Anniversary salute to the free
enterprise system.
New England's greatest
challenge is the battle to
persuade outsiders to place
the New England economy in
proper perspective" said
Gregg. He added that New
England faces a constant fight
against miSinformation, care
less use of statistics and down
right mythology.
Listing a few of the advan-
tageS that insure the growth
of the areas future, Gregg
pointed to the fact that the
New England area now in
cludes Is percent of the ma
TONS electronic firms; IL per-
cent of the industrial research
laboratories and more than
Is percent of the laboratories
in instruments, electrical
equipment and machinery in
dustries, not to mention vast
atomic energy development
programs.
I'VE see in the sections of
the nation that only now are
growing economically millions
OF customers for our products
rather than thousands of new
competitors" he asserted.
Ryan predicts new commu-
nifty pattern.
THE new industrial pattern
in New England can't come
about overnight, Robert
Ryan, Executive Vice Presi-
dent, Massachusetts, Business
Development Corporation told
the forum. "The change how |
ever will see the growth of
attractive communities
built around high-speed ex-
press ways, zoned for indus |
try that will specialize in di-
versity".
Ryan asserted that commu-
mites in New England will
bring about greater prosperity
and change if they can offer
planned industrial locations
to new industry; minimum
transportation problems; ade-
quate supply of labor; healthy
local tax structure.
