Dear colleagues, As announced in the preceding posting, I have two more queries. In a column on "The fight about inflation in America" (written Nov 10, 1933) Fritz Machlup refers to a memorandum (or "declaration") by eight university professors from Chicago, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio. According to Machlup, in this memorandum, a critique of the policies pursued by the Roosevelt administration, these professors state that "the opinions of single economists, so influential at this time [that is, those favouring Rossevelt's 'monetary experiments'], must not be considered the representative view of monetary economists" (my translation). In another column ("Blame the professors", written Dec 1933, unpublished) Machlup mentions another memorandum, critical of Roosevelt's policy. He refers to it as "the memorandum of the professors of the Columbia University, authored by Professor [Benjamin H.] Beckhart and signed by 38 [economists]". Again, may I ask for your help in providing information on these two memoranda. Once more many thanks to all. Hansjoerg Klausinger Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration
