A Half Century of Economic Research

David E. Brewster and Diana Morse

No 324761, Miscellaneous Publications from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: The reorganization of the Economic Research Service, effective June 29, 1973, was preceded by a series of conferences devoted to papers and discussions of the missions and programs of the Service. Some of this material was brought together in a series of articles for The Farm Index. These articles are now published, not as a definitive statement, but as a guide to the background, objectives and major lines of research of the Service. The articles "A Half Century of Economic Research," "People and Progress," "Economics: Cornerstone of Policy," "Economists on the Foreign Front," and "Economists in an Urban Age," were written by David E. Brewster. The article on the Outlook Board was based on material supplied by C. Kyle Randall and Benjamin R. Blankenship, Jr., and was written by Diana Morse.
