  • BIS Working Papers No 136 the Price Level, Relative Prices and Economic Stability: Aspects of the Interwar Debate by David Laidler* Monetary and Economic Department
    BIS Working Papers No 136 The price level, relative prices and economic stability: aspects of the interwar debate by David Laidler* Monetary and Economic Department September 2003 * University of Western Ontario Abstract Recent financial instability has called into question the sufficiency of low inflation as a goal for monetary policy. This paper discusses interwar literature bearing on this question. It begins with theories of the cycle based on the quantity theory, and their policy prescription of price stability supported by lender of last resort activities in the event of crises, arguing that their neglect of fluctuations in investment was a weakness. Other approaches are then taken up, particularly Austrian theory, which stressed the banking system’s capacity to generate relative price distortions and forced saving. This theory was discredited by its association with nihilistic policy prescriptions during the Great Depression. Nevertheless, its core insights were worthwhile, and also played an important part in Robertson’s more eclectic account of the cycle. The latter, however, yielded activist policy prescriptions of a sort that were discredited in the postwar period. Whether these now need re-examination, or whether a low-inflation regime, in which the authorities stand ready to resort to vigorous monetary expansion in the aftermath of asset market problems, is adequate to maintain economic stability is still an open question. BIS Working Papers are written by members of the Monetary and Economic Department of the Bank for International Settlements, and from time to time by other economists, and are published by the Bank. The views expressed in them are those of their authors and not necessarily the views of the BIS.

  • An Early Harvard Memorandum on Anti-Depression Policies.1
    An Early Harvard Memorandum on anti-Depression Policies.1 Introductory Note by David Laidler (University of Western Ontario) and Roger Sandilands (University of Strathclyde) 1The typescript whose text is reproduced below is from Box 12, Folder 29, Harry Dexter White Papers, Seeley G. Mudd Manuscript Library, Princeton University Library. Published with permission of Princeton University Library. Its title, authorship and date are written at the top of its first page, in handwriting identified by Bruce Craig and Sandilands as that of White. 1 The Memorandum’s Authors and Their Message The Memorandum which this note introduces was completed by three young members of the Harvard economics department sometime in January 1932 Two of them, Lauchlin Currie and Harry Dexter White were soon to play key roles on the American, indeed the world-wide, policy scene. Both of them would go to Washington in 1934 as founding members of Jacob Viner’s “Freshman Brains Trust”. In due course, first at the Federal Reserve Board, and later at the Treasury and the White House, Currie would become a highly visible and leading advocate of expansionary fiscal policy, while White, at the Treasury, was to be a co-architect, with Keynes, of the Bretton Woods system. Both would fall victim to anti-communist witch-hunts in the late 1940s, in White’s case perhaps at the cost of his life, since he died of a heart attack in 1948 three days after a strenuous hearing before the House Committee on Unamerican Activities (HUAC).

Our affiliation with a major academic medical center underscores our departments three-pronged mission: to provide the highest quality of compassionate care, to educate the surgeons of tomorrow, and to pursue groundbreaking research. As members of the clinical staff of NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine, our team of experienced surgeons practice at the forefront of their respective specialties, offering patients outstanding, humane and personalized care. As faculty of Weill Cornell Medical College, these physicians are educating future generations of surgeons and advancing state-of-the-art surgical treatment. The history of surgery at the New York Hospital, the second oldest hospital in the United States, reflects the evolution of surgery in America, and is marked by some of the most extraordinary achievements in medicine. The New York Hospital was the cradle of early surgical developments and instruction in America, earning a worldwide reputation for excellence and innovation. Many of today’s practices and techniques arose from our institution. Our department continues to build upon our rich legacy of surgical innovations, making important contributions to the advancement of new surgical procedures.

  • 1 the MAKING of INDEX NUMBERS in the EARLY 1920S
    THE MAKING OF INDEX NUMBERS IN THE EARLY 1920s: A CLOSER LOOK AT THE FISHER–MITCHELL DEBATE Felipe Almeida Victor Cruz e Silva Universidade Federal do Paraná Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa Área 1 - História do Pensamento Econômico e Metodologia RESUMO O surgimento sistemático da abordagem axiomática dos números de índice ocorreu no início dos anos 1920, um período marcado pelo pluralismo na academia econômic estadunidense. Promovida por Irving Fisher, a abordagem axiomática dos números de índice teve como objetivo selecionar uma fórmula ideal universalmente válida para números de índice, empregando uma série de testes estatísticos. No entanto, desde a primeira apresentação da abordagem de Fisher, no Encontro Anual da Associação Estadunidense de Estatística em 1920, até a publicação de seu livro “The Making of Index Numbers” em 1922, Fisher enfrentou uma série de críticas, não endereçadas à sua fórmula ideal propriamente dita, mas à própria idéia de uma fórmula universal para números de índice. Os principais indivíduos envolvidos nesse debate foram Wesley Mitchell, Warren Persons, Correa Walsh (que foi o único que apoiou a proposta de Fisher) e Allyn Young. Entre eles, o principal representante dos antagonistas de Fisher era Mitchell. Este estudo argumenta que as divergências entre Fisher e Mitchell resultam de seus distintos entendimentos da economia como uma "ciência". Portanto, o objetivo deste estudo é ilustrar como Fisher, como economista matemático, privilegiou a universalidade das teorias econômicas, enquanto Mitchell, como institucionalista, entendeu a economia como uma disciplina contextual e histórica e como essas preconcepções estão presentes no debate sobre números de índice. Para ilustrar suas posições, este estudo explora evidências baseadas em arquivo.

  • The Lewis Atterbury Stimson, Md (1844-1917) Papers
    MEDICAL CENTER ARCHIVES OF NEWYORK-PRESBYTERIAN/WEILL CORNELL 1300 York Avenue #34 New York, NY 10065 Finding Aid to the THE LEWIS ATTERBURY STIMSON, MD (1844-1917) PAPERS Dates: 1861-1933; 1965-1969 18.25 Linear Inches (6 Boxes) © 2020 Medical Center Archives of NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell 2 ABSTRACT: Lewis Atterbury Stimson, MD was a surgeon and educator, as well as an important contributor towards the founding of Cornell University Medical College in 1898. This collection contains correspondence, notebooks, a diary, will, and reprints, as well as biographies and memorial statements relating to L. A. Stimson. PROVENANCE: This collection was formed by combining L. A. Stimson material in the Philip Moen Stimson Papers (accessioned 1974) with two boxes of L. A. Stimson reprints received from the Pathology Department Library (which received them from Stimson himself) and the miscellaneous items acquired by the Archives over several years. The constant demand for material on and information about L. A. Stimson warrants these materials being drawn into a single collection. ADMINISTRATIVE/BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: Lewis Atterbury Stimson was born August 24, 1844 in Paterson, New Jersey, the second son of Henry Clark and Julia Atterbury Stimson. He was educated in the Paterson schools and at Yale College from which he graduated in 1863. After traveling in Europe and service in the Union Army, in 1866, Dr. Stimson entered his father's New York banking firm. That same year, in Paris, he married Candace T. Wheeler. The couple had two children, Henry Lewis (later Secretary of State and of War) and Candace Catherine Stimson.

    GREAT THINKERS IN ECONOMICS SERIES EDITOR: A. P. THIRLWALL Allyn Abbott Young Ramesh Chandra Great Thinkers in Economics Series Editor A. P. Thirlwall School of Economics University of Kent Canterbury, UK The famous historian, E.H. Carr once said that in order to understand history it is necessary to understand the historian writing it. The same could be said of economics. Famous economists often remark that spe- cific episodes in their lives, or particular events that took place in their formative years attracted them to economics. Great Thinkers in Economics is designed to illuminate the economics of some of the great historical and contemporary economists by exploring the interaction between their lives and work, and the events surrounding them.
