Economics Statistics was founded by three bright young disciples of Economist Lewis Henry Haney of New York University-George Ogden Trenchard, Jules Blackman and Andrew Lavell Jackson, great-grandson of Thomas Jonathan ("Stonewall") Jackson and onetime editor of Bradstreet.

Harlem Negroes took his Universal Negro Improvement Association away from him by default and he founded another. When that went bankrupt, he started a third. His Jamaica newspaper, The Blackman, and his Edelweiss* Amusement Corp.
