The manifesto also called for a [[National syndicalism|national syndicalist]] economy and advocated [[agrarian reform]]s, [[Industrialization|industrial expansion]], and respect for [[private property]] with the exception of nationalizing [[Credit (finance)|credit]] facilities to prevent [[usury]].<ref name="HansRogger">Hans Rogger, Eugen Weber.''
