During his time at Chicago in 1931-2, Lundberg (1994 [1934], 48, 51-2, 62) 
found that with respect to business cycle theory Chicago had "very little to 
offer.  Professor Mints touched on some aspects of the problem in his 
lectures on monetary theories".  Presumably referring to the disputes over 
the Treatise, Lundberg noted that "Our speeches and discussions centred 
around the monetary formulations of the business cycles given by Hayek, 
Mises and Keynes … I dare say the Keynesian side mostly won the battles". 
(Lundberg, E. 1994. Studies in Economic Instability and Change.  Stockholm: 
SNS Forlag. Edited by R. Henriksson.)  
 
I have two questions which I would be most grateful for assistance with. 
 
1. did Lundberg leave any papers or lecture notes from this period? 
2. apart from Patinkin, Friedman, Laidler, Tavlas, Humphrey is there any 
other material relating to the teaching of monetary economics at Chicago in 
the 1930s?
