Content Summary Thanks Keynes for book [first edition of 'Studies and Exercises in Formal Logic'] and examination papers. Thought the Political Economy set very well put. Finds book difficult, wishes Keynes had given a key to the answers. Summary Thinks it cruel of [William Stanley] Jevons not to have given his own reply to the last sentence of his 'Studies [in Deductive Logic']. Keynes must not interpret these remarks as critical. Summary Sending separately copies of all reprints of Report of Bank of France he can get hold of. Report for l881 is missing. Asks Keynes not to destroy them. Reports show what demands of mob government on a central institution may be, one of his reasons for opposing centralized note issue. Bank of France was never repaid what Commune extorted, and might have been far more pillaged. Glad if Keynes would show reports to [Alfred] Marshall and any other Cambridge friends with views on note issues.

If not so behind in other work, would like to review it in 'Mind', but instead is asking [John] Venn to do so quickly. If he agrees, this would be best for book.

Content Summary Thanks for third edition of ['Formal] Logic'. Glad to see that though expanded it is not markedly more expensive than before. Wishes Keynes had taken note of some of chief German writers "and then perhaps it would have struck one as less odd to see our friend Welton, Miss Jones and others figuring so frequently." Exempts [Willliam Ernest] Johnson from that criticism because he "has it in him to do first-rate work." Summary Mentions other criticisms, reminds Keynes that 20 years earlier he had tried to persuade him there is no such science as Formal Logic. But praises accuracy and conciseness of book.

Document form Record type Correspondence Specific type Letter Language English

Acquisition Summary Deposited by Mrs J.N. [Florence Ada] Keynes

Content Summary Has noted in pencil his main criticisms but as some are general he would like to repeat them. Summary 1. Concerning quotations and names of authors, Keynes should adopt much higher standard and not refer to works not of first rank (e.g.Ingram, Dunbar, etc.). The only other plan? is to imitate the Germans in his voluminous bibliography. Nicholson prefers English method "carried to an extreme by Adam Smith." Cites example. Keynes says nothing of France or Italy. Summary 2. Doesn't like "we" or "our" in a book, but this is matter of taste. Better to be impersonal. Summary 3. "I do not like the "Ricardo-Mill" mention, as I know [Thomas Edward] Cliffe Leslie never placed [John Stuart] Mill in the anti-historical school. Mill [?really ...], as he said himself, to follow Adam Smith and bring 'The Wealth of Nations' up to date, and there is more moral philosophy and social history in Mill than in Adam Smith. At the same time it is true that Mill was too much influenced by Ricardo." Summary Thinks Keynes's idea is sound and the only one tenable. Need different methods for different purposes. Expressed this in his introductory address at Edinburgh. In his own lectures he adopts different methods. It will be useful to have a book which bring this out well and describes the various methods. Does Keynes intend to describe different methods in detail with examples as [John Elliot] Cairnes did?

Acquisition Summary Deposited by Mrs J.N. [Florence Ada] Keynes

Content Summary Asks for copy of first proof, and for future needs two copies of sheets, as to do justice in commenting may need to look back. Thinks it great mistake for writer to be too influenced by criticism. He will try to make suggestions which Keynes can act on without sacrifice of independence. Summary Thinks Keynes unfair to [John Stuart] Mill. With reference to [David] Ricardo his writings mainly on financial matters; Nicholson doesn't remember anything of his on social and ethical side which Mill so largely developed. On purely financial topics the "economic man" is no more abstract that the "business man". Thinks great value of German school is collection of historical facts [underlined]; cites several German authors and their fields of research. "The Germans have muddled the theory and principles with few exceptions - as a race I look on them as the coal-heavers to the engineers of other countries (of course with exceptions.)" Summary Lately despite (or perhaps because of) his attention to economic history he has thought more of English school, especially "natural system" of Adam Smith, than he did. "It is amazing how in the middle ages the natural economic forces were always at work."

Acquisition Summary Deposited by Mrs J.N. [Florence Ada] Keynes

Content Summary Dislikes names Keynes has adopted for distinctions on p.16 et seq. Seems odd to say that a practical [underlined] science is concerned with the ideal [underlined] as distinguished from the actual [underlined]; reader will be confused unless terms always explained in the context. Summary Objects to use of "positive or [underlined] theoretical", e.g. when Keynes says investigation of incidence of taxation is a purely [underlined] theoretical inquiry - whereas in ordinary use of language it is one of the principal problems of practical politics. Summary Approves of distinction expressed in (a) (b) on p.17. Perhaps ethical [underlined] or ideal [underlined] would be better than practical [underlined] for your purpose. Summary Has found chapter difficult to follow, Keynes seems to have got too much into drawing of ambiguities in the style of [Henry] Sidgwick. Thinks rule like de minimus non curat lex [Latin phrase underlined] should be observed; some material could be put in notes. Summary His main objection is to p.26 et seq. Right to emphasize strongly positive theoretical scientific attitude of the economist and distinguish it from [..?] solution of practical problems for social purposes, but economist should have eye to "relief of man's estate" as [Francis] Bacon has it, and that he should not "like our friend Edgeworth get spiked on the misty summits of the higher mathematics, in fact that he should so work at his science that the practical bearing is obvious." This is merit of Adam Smith who was never in the clouds and criticized Physiocrats for not being practical. Keynes does not bring this out, in fact tends other way by saying that P[olitical] E[conomy] as an art [?] is unnecessary and undesirable if it only points out the applications of its own theories. Summary This puts cart before horse. Life is short, art long and economic phenomena infinite. Economist must select his data and if he bears in mind that is doctrines are closely connected within interests of life his science will gain. Summary Also thinks [p.] 26 (2) wrongly emphasized. If Keynes brings in justice, brings in most disputed questions in ethics, but if only tries to find out how nations or classes or types are made wealth as in (l), he has no such difficulties. (3) is vagueness itself. Notion is Germanic and should not be connected with name of [Edgeworth?] who gets it second hand. Summary Cannot reconcile attitude here to that shown in rest of chapter. Summary Has kept proofs so long that is obliged to write hurriedly. Thinks he ought not to have found it such difficult reading, and either by omission or emphasis or resumes of main arguments Keynes should make it clearer. Chief mistake was trying to do too much justice to muddle-headed Germans. Summary Postscript: Having made rapid survey or argument of chapter, thinks Keynes does nearly same thing 3 times (cites references.)

Content Summary Difficult to explain briefly nature of medieval experimental "legislation". Refers Keynes to various authorities. Cites specific example of complaint from silk workers against foreign competition in 15th century. Summary Has no time to hunt up examples but has plenty in his notes to support general position. Summary Has written short ?impressionist review of [Alfred] Marshall's book ['Principles of Economics']. "On the whole on re-reading I think I let him off too easily for some things. His history is vague, old-fashioned and excessively weak; his examples are mainly of the ...... kind or at best curious rather than important; the repetition is so great that his plan must be faulty; and if he is to cover the whole ground of what I understand by P[olitical] E[conomy] he will at the same rate take 6 volumes. At the same time his pure theory is extremely good and deserves the highest praise, especially because he was really the first to eintroduce the ideas to England. Summary "The book will, however, never do as a text book in its present shape, and I can only recommend it for honours students. There is no Money, Foreign Trade, Socialism, Property, Principles of Governmental Contol, Banking, Crises etc. etc. and there is only a small part of Taxation." Summary Hence Nicholson will go ahead at once to convert his own notes into a comprehensive textbook about the size of [John Stuart] Mill ['Principles of Political Economy']. Not a mere compilation, hopes to amplify it with real historical examples. Has at least 120 lectures to draw on as well as previously published work. Will try to complete book before end of next long vacation. Summary Asks Keynes to send him paged copy of proofs once available.

Content Summary Thanks for copy of new [second] edition of 'Scope and Method of Political Economy'. It would have been useful to have new preface indicating nature of changes from first edition. Summary However book remains best of its kind, even if it had been reprinted without alteration. Thinks it has hastened time when books on economic method will be unnecessary because all sound economists will follow the only scientific method. "We have mainly to thank Ricardo for the interminable discussions on method. It really arose from his deplorable confusions, made still more mischievous by those who regarded themselves as his followers. Even Marshall still shows the Ricardian taint, and rather badly at times. He has a strong tendency to objectify his own abstractions, and then worship them."

Content Summary Thanks for second edition of 'Scope and Method of Political Economy'. Wonders how long it took Macmillans to make distribution. Fancies Macmillans often dilatory about presentation copies of Marshall's books but unable to ascertain facts. Summary Noted "a very good remark " in new edition on relation between "normal" and "average". "It is a point to be considered carefully: at present I am inclined to quote it in my Ed IV." Summary Doesn't agree with Keynes's endorsement of [William Ernest] Johnson's classification of "postulates". "He speaks of the Law of I.R. [increasing returns] as physical. I hold that it is emphatically human, the physical element being quite subordinate. As to the law of D.R. [diminishing returns] I have said that that - at all events in its simpler form - is only a physical and not an economic law; though it happens to be of special importance in economics. Summary "The law of the pressure of populations on the means of subsistence, on the other hand, I hold to be an economic law because there is a large human element in it."

Content Summary The papers in this section were deposited by Sir Geoffrey Keynes in 1958, and relate to what became known as the "Pigou Case". This was the University of Cambridge's application for exemption from the provisions of the Military Service Act for Professor Arthur Cecil Pigou, on the grounds of his being indispensible to Economics teaching. The most vociferous opponents of Pigou within the University were William Cunningham and Roderick Henry Macleod. John Neville Keynes represented Pigou on behalf of the Board of Economics at both the first Borough Tribunal on 10 May 1916, when Pigou secured conditional exemption, and at the appeal against this decision brought about by the military representative and held on 22 May. The appeal of the Military was dismissed, but Herbert Somerton Foxwell was mentioned as a possible substitute for Pigou, being above the age for military service. Differing versions of the private discussions between Keynes and Foxwell about this became public, leading to claims by both parties that they had been misrepresented at the 22 May hearing. Thus at the behest of the military representative, a special sitting of the Local Tribunal was set for 21 June 1916, when Pigou was represented by John Harold Clapham. Again he secured a conditional exemption.

Content Summary Responds to letter from Roderick Henry Macleod "which appeared in your columns on April 25, and also in a local Cambridge newspaper." [See JNKeynes 4/2]. Will not discuss own qualifications, but letter contains "imputations upon a number of other people." All except himself are currently in service of departments of Government or Army and "the suggestion that the "brand of economics" favoured by them is of a kind to breed carelessness of the public interest is as stupid as it is gratuitous." Summary Invites Macleod to attack in straightforward manner rather than trying to discredit important department of University. Free field Published in 'Morning Post' of 1 May 1916. Archive contains no copy of Macleod's letter to 'Morning Post' but by implication it was identical to letter dated 25 April 1916 to 'Cambridge Daily News' [see JNKeynes 4/2].

Summary Mrs [Olive] Foxwell told him that Keynes is reported to have said that Foxwell "could not undertake paper work till after Xmas". Has not seen newspaper but this is misrepresentation. He [Foxwell] had said "that the only part of the work which would be troublesome would be paper work; but I remember adding that in War time we could not pick and chose our work."

Content Summary Unfortunately 'Cambridge Daily News' report of what Keynes had said [at 22 May 1916 meeting of Appeal Tribunal - see JNKeynes 4/19/2] about Foxwell's position is inaccurate. Keynes has full notes of what he intended to say, is sure he said Foxwell was currently very busy but had expressed willingness to give up if necessary some of his work and deliver lectures at Cambridge, adding that this would be difficult until after Christmas and that Foxwell unsure he could look over papers and give personal attention to individuals as [Arthur Cecil] Pigou does. Summary Keynes distinctly understood matter thus after their recent meeting, which Foxwell opened by saying how over-burdened he was, how much work he must do on his library until Christmas.

Content Summary Draft letter [consolidation of earlier drafts contained in JNKeynes 4/28/1] to [Chairman of Cambridge] Borough Tribunal concerning forthcoming review of [Arthur Cecil] Pigou's exemption from military service, in light of [Herbert Somerton] Foxwell's letter of 25 May 1916 to 'Cambridge Daily News'. Summary Repeats his understanding of what Foxwell had told him about his availability, as described in Keynes's letter published in 'Cambridge Daily News' on 26 May [see JNKeynes 4/25/3]. Regrets that his recollections of conversation do not correspond to Foxwell's. Summary Repeats that "as Chairman of the Special Board for Economics and Politics, I cannot regard the services of a lecturer who already has professional duties in another University as in any sense a satisfactory substitute for the work of a professor who spends his whole time in Cambridge and is always available to the students." Summary Will not say more as Dr. [John Harold] Clapham who appears at University's request will be able to state case more fully. Free field Draft is essentially identical with text of letter of 16 June l9l6 from Keynes to Tribunal, quoted in full in 'Cambridge Daily News' of 22 June 1916 reporting on Tribunal's hearing - see JNKeynes 4/30/1.

Title Professor Pigou Claimed for Service

Content Summary Cambridge Local Tribunal will review next Wednesday Professor [Arthur Cecil] Pigou's certificate of conditional exemption [from military service]. Review requested by the military representative "on the facts disclosed by Dr. Foxwell to the Press." Summary At previous hearing [10 May 1916], Dr [John Neville] Keynes said he did not think Foxwell was willing to undertake the work in Pigou's absence. Foxwell then addressed letter to local newspaper refuting Keynes's statement as being misunderstanding of their conversation. Keynes replied, giving his understanding of that conversation. Summary Consequently military representative asked to have Pigou's exemption reviewed. Summary Keynes having asked to be excused from taking further part in hearings, Board of Economics will be represented by Dr [John Harold] Clapham.

Title Borough Tribunal: The Case of Professor Pigou Reheard: Prof. Foxwell's Offer; Dr. Clapham on Importance of Economic Teaching

Content Summary After lengthy hearing Tribunal refused to change certificate [of exemption from military service] recently granted to Professor [Arthur Cecil] Pigou. Summary Military Representative said Dr [John Neville] Keynes averred that Pigou was sole remaining teacher [in Economics Faculty] whereas there were 5 including [Herbert Somerton] Foxwell and [John Harold] Clapham. Question was whether Pigou was indispensable or not. Summary He then rehearsed Keynes's statement made to Appeal Tribunal, Foxwell's letter to press of 24 May l9l6 and Keynes's letter to press of 25 May l9l5 - see JNKeynes 4/19/2, 4/24/1 and 4/25/3. Summary Clapham put University's case for Pigou's indispensability, citing his recall from ambulance duty in October l915 and giving estimates of future student numbers. Since Foxwell had teaching responsibilities at London University, he could only partially fill Pigou's responsibilies, and this was not enough.
