It was a mid-term or "Extraordinary" Congress, timed so that Khrushchev could try to consolidate his power over rivals after the attempted coup of the Anti-Party Group in 1957. The Seven-Year Plan of economic development was adopted. At the projected rate of growth, Soviet textile production would, by the end of the seven-year plan, approach the level of the United States, both in total output and per capita. The total amount of capital construction investment stipulated in the seven-year plan was equivalent to the total capital construction investment of the Soviet Union over 40 years.The seven-year plan called for an almost fivefold increase in national income over 1940 levels, and an increase of the real incomes of workers and collective farm holders by about 40%. There were also plans to develop residential buildings and expand nurseries, kindergartens, boarding schools and nursing homes. The working week was expected to be reduced to 40 hours by 1962 and to 35 to 30 hours in 1964 to 1968. The seven-year plan also stipulated that school education at all levels would be greatly improved (Wiki).
