It Is a big plan ,and, for that very reason, fraught with dangers as well us with btneficinl possi bilities. Mr. llabson himself thus expresses his hope for It: "This central gathering placo cf the powers of production and those who are familiar with distribution would, do more tlmtn nnytbing else 1 know to stabilize our civilization and bring a national satisfaction and progress. It would be the re juvenation of New Kngland. It would be the salvation of the 10, Olln.liOU unemployed.
