ORGANISED PLANNING
Difficulty Of Preserving Individual Initiative “The real difficulty in organised planning in industry or agriculture is to preserve the right for individual expression and individual initiative,” said Mr. Bruce Levy, of the Plant Research Bureau, Palmerston North, in an address to the Wellington Rotary Club yesterday. “If one could express the spirit abroad in trade and commerce, in the street, and even in agriculture itself, it is surely the desire, if practicable, to be free of restraint and to be given an open way for this individual expression and initiative. “Earl Baldwin expresses it thus: ‘I see a danger ahead —that our people may become mechanised, not only in body, but in mind. I dread the mass mind, I dread the loss of that independent individualistic character which has macle this nation what it is.’ ”
