H.I.M. words concerning planning
``Planning is the basis of the rational and
sustained use of capital, manpower and time in the acceleration of economic
development.
The history of planning shows that no pioneer plans were ever executed even
partially, much less wholly.
Planning is indispensable for the rational utilization of both a nation's
resources and foreign aid or loans.
As a basis of, and working procedure for, a national socio-economic policy, a
plan is a means whereby a nation can be developed through the rational
utilization of manpower and machinery for the most important aspects of he
country's needs.
The execution of any such plan needs, however, national participation. You must
ensure that in your desire to achieve immediate goals, long term considerations
of equal or greater importance are not ignored or irrevocably prejudiced. Plan
your time and use both your physical and mental powers purposefully and
productively. Military planning for the security of this continent must be
undertaken in common within a collective framework.``
