World Conference on Industry

World business leaders, at San Francisco, agreed that a mixed economy was essential today and that its public sector would obligingly wither away

The men invited to come and those invited to speak were men of private enterprise, the most powerful and articulate, presumably, whom the sponsors could find around the globe. The most important exception was Vice President Nixon, and there were many partial exceptions who had, in addition to private interests, government positions at home, or leadership in public and quasi-public economic institutions. But the recognized legitimate aim of nearly all of these men, also, was to promote the private economies of their own nations and the world.
