Terminating Building Societies in Quebec City, 1850–1864
In discussions of the history of real estate markets a key role clearly must be assigned to financial institutions, yet our knowledge of their various structures, particularly before the late nineteenth century, remains sketchy. One organization created to facilitate real estate purchases in the absence of other institutional sources of mortgage loans was the building society, either permanent or terminating. This article gathers together the inf…
Biased Technical Change, Scale, and Factor Substitution in American Industry, 1850–1919
Biased technical change, scale economies, and factor substitution were part of U.S. manufacturing's technical response to factor price movements during the period 1850 to 1919. In this article we employ the cost dual of a Generalized Leontief production function to test directly for the presence of these three effects for nineteen two-digit manufacturing sectors. Biased technical change is found in all but one sector; scale economies in all but t…

Factor Biases and Technical Change in Manufacturing: The American System, 1850-1919
This paper examines the proposition that U.S. manufacturing experienced biased technical change during the period 1850-1919. Tests for bias, in Hicksian terms, are conducted using the translog cost dual. Redefined census data permit these tests to be made at the two-digit level of industry classification and with four inputs considered-labor, capital, materials, and a residual factor input. The tests demonstrate that labor-saving and capital-usin…

This study separates direct from portfolio investment (the form British investment has been assumed to prefer) and, on the basis of an analysis of the records of a thousand British companies active in the country, develops figures for UK direct investment in Canada from 1890 to 1914

Readability and Human Interest of Management and Union Publications
Last year Flesch's The Art of Readable Writing was published primarily, it seems, to give editors of journals a bad conscience. Academicians are now trying to spread the bad conscience to people who write for management and union publications. This article from the Industrial Relations Center of the University of Minnesota demonstrates that learned journals are not the only publications that fail to meet Mr. Flesch's high or low literary standard…

Students' Judgments of Counseling
A FACULTY counseling program might well include an attempt at evaluation. Admittedly evaluation is exceedingly difficult. Nevertheless, a practical approach can be made by the use of a simple questionnaire directed to those most intimately concerned with the counseling program-those being counseled. By securing students' reactions to a limited number of questions, it is possible to secure an over-all picture of the opinions regarding the effectiv…

Methods of Rating Human Qualities
T HE so-called psychological method of rating human qualities is designed to remedy the defects inherent in the traditional method of sizing up people. From time immemorial employers have been forced by the very nature of things to form some impression of the worth of workers. This task has been performed so automatically and habitually that, until recently, it has not been subject to critical examination and study. Of course, all of the estimati…
