Did Doubling Reserve Requirements Cause the Recession of 1937-1938? A Microeconomic Approach Charles W. Calomiris, Joseph Mason, and David Wheelock NBER Working Paper No. 16688 January 2011 JEL No. E51,E58,G21,G28,N12,N22 ABSTRACT In 1936-37, the Federal Reserve doubled the reserve requirements imposed on member banks. Ever since, the question of whether the doubling of reserve requirements increased reserve demand and produced a contraction of money and credit, and thereby helped to cause the recession of 1937-1938, has been a matter of controversy. Using microeconomic data to gauge the fundamental reserve demands of Fed member banks, we find that despite being doubled, reserve requirements were not binding on bank reserve demand in 1936 and 1937, and therefore could not have produced a significant contraction in the money multiplier.

  • The 1930S: a New Curriculum and Coeducation, by Mary Hull Mohr
    The 1930s: A New Curriculum and Coeducation, by Mary Hull Mohr Two of Luther’s most transformative changes came in the early 1930s: the ending of the classical curriculum and the beginning of coeducation. Both decisions were in part driven by financial concerns. The enrollment of the college dropped from 345 in 1930-31 to 283 students in the 1931-32 school year, and the college had significant debt. President Olson had strongly supported the classical curriculum, but in the face of financial pressures and student and constituency challenges, he affirmed the faculty’s vote to adopt new curricular requirements starting in September of 1931. Christianity retained its 14 hour requirement, but students were no longer required to take Greek, Latin, German, Norwegian, history, and mathematics. A two- year requirement in the language of the student’s choice remained (one year if the student had taken two years in high school). History was folded into a social science requirement and mathematics into a science and math requirement. Since majors, minors, and electives were already options, Luther had finally adopted the pattern common in most of the colleges and universities in the United States. The day after the adoption of the new curriculum by the faculty, President Olson announced that he was advocating coeducation. A staunch supporter of Luther as a college for men, Olson must have believed that the financial crisis would be alleviated by the admission of women. Not everyone agreed. Some believed coeducation would require additional resources: new courses for women, female faculty, housing needs. And, indeed, it did.

  • Stagflation in the 1930S: Why Did the French New Deal Fail?
    Stagflation in the 1930s: Why did the French New Deal Fail? Jeremie Cohen-Setton, Joshua K. Hausman, and Johannes F. Wieland∗ August 15, 2014 VERSION 1.0. VERY PRELIMINARY. DO NOT CITE WITHOUT PERMISSION. The latest version is available here. Abstract Most countries started to recover from the Great Depression when they left the Gold Stan- dard. France did not. In 1936, France both left the Gold Standard and enacted New- Deal-style policies, in particular wage increases and a 40-hour week law. The result was stagflation; prices rose rapidly from 1936 to 1938 while output stagnated. Using panel data on sectoral output, we show that the 40-hour week restriction had strong negative effects on production. Absent this law, France would likely have followed the usual pattern of rapid recovery after leaving the Gold Standard. We construct a model to show how supply-side policies could have prevented output growth despite excess capacity and a large real interest rate decline. ∗Cohen-Setton: University of California, Berkeley. 530 Evans Hall #3880, Berkeley, CA 94720.
