E.B.Wilson (1879-1964), Harvard mathematician (at the School of Public 
Health!), on the editorial board of Econometrica, published statistical 
work 
suggesting that there were no regular cycles evident in economic time 
series, 
reviewed Haavelmo's major Cowles Commission monograph etc.  Is this the 
Wilson you mean?  Or Edgar Bright Wilson, physicist, born in 1908 and died 
in 1992.  He co-authored a famous book on quantum theory with Linus Pauling 
and wrote another on how to do science, but I'm not aware of any work in 
economics.
