This subject is extensively explored, using newly available archival  
materials at Duke (the Karl Menger Papers), by Robert Leonard in his  
paper "Logic and the Jackboot: Mathematical and Social Order in Karl  
Menger's Vienna, 1925-1938". The paper was given at the Veblen  
Society Meetings in Chicago last month, and will be presented in the  
regular HOPE Workshop at Duke on 10/4/96. Copies might be available  
from the author at the University of Quebec at Montreal.
