Third Volume of Economic Studies

The third volume of the Harvard Economic Studies is in press and should appear very shortly. The purpose of the series is to place before the public the results of careful researches and investigations that have been made by advanced students and instructors in the Department of Economics. Only such monographs are to be published as embody results of permanent value. Each year the thesis which wins the David A. Wells Prize is published by the University, the cost of publication being defrayed from funds provided by the will of the late David A. Wells '51.

Volume three of the series is "The Stannaries: A Study of the English Tin Miner," by S. R. Lewis '02. This thesis won the Wells prize last year. The fourth volume which will also appear soon is "Railroad Reorganization" by S. Daggett '03.
