...authors are perhaps at their best in discussing popular fallacies; though there is also much straight exposition--for instance, Professor Mason's summary account of the main features of the National Industrial Recovery Act or Professor Harris' relation of banking and monetary events of the last year, or again Professor Leentief's admirably lucid grouping of the agricultural relief provisions which will be useful to the reader who is still trying to form some comprehensive picture of what has already been done.

It was this roof which, in 1776, was removed to furnish bullets for the Revolutionary Ordnance Department. The roof is reported to have weighed several tons...
