Soule, George | April 16, 1949 issue

This article focuses on the book "Ordeal by Planning," by John Jewkes. Jewkes is professor of political economy at the University of Manchester. His attack on British planning was published quietly in this country last summer and has gradually gained support from those who believe it is possible and desirable for Great Britain to go back to the free economy. Because he represents scholarly dissent on the side of old-fashioned liberalism, his position is worth careful examination by those who disagree with him.
