...Labor Secretary James Mitchell in a blunt talk last week to civic leaders in the industrial town of Granite City, 111.

The biggest pocketbook behind Vision belongs to Board Chairman J. Noel Macy, of the family that controls a profitable string of nine dailies in New York's wealthy Westchester County.
