There is also the question of whether Klien was the victim of McCarthyism at the Univesity of Michigan.

Dear Prof. Weintraub, 

  

                As you have access to these papers, and evidently find them interesting, I wonder if I might impose on your time and expertise to explain something about Klein for me.  Klein was known for some time as a “Keynesian Hawk”; about ten years later I read that he was a pacifist.  I could dig up my sources, if it matters, but I make no firm allegations.  You may already know of this, in which case I would appreciate your telling me if this apparent change of heart really did come about, and IF so, why. 

  

Thank you, 

  

Mason Gaffney

I am pleased to inform the list that, following on this Spring's addition of the Lawrence R. Klein Papers,  the Anna J. Schwartz Papers have arrived and are being processed currently for the Economists Papers Project at  Duke University's David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library.
