An Analysis Of Prices At Utah Livestock Auctions, Mcneil Glenn

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

From the time of Don Hernando Cortez, livestock has been one of America's greatest industries. The cattle in Cortez's time were Moorish stock which had been bred for centuries in the Andalusian Plains of Spain.

Following this beginning in about 1521, cattle were bred and brought from South America to Mexico. By 1583 the first herds were grazing in what is now Texas.

This was the beginning of the livestock industry and with it carne the endless search for fertile valleys, waterholes, feed in the winter, long trail drives, cattle rustlers, railroads, range wars, and a great American institution, The …

International Cooperation In The Economic Development Of Latin America, Antonella Picchio

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

As an Italian, with less than a year in the Western Hemisphere, I now find myself with a “mixed” personality. As someone else expressed it, "I am physically Italian, Latin American by adoption, and gaily American." This may well be a good combination for writing a thesis on Latin America. My "Latin blood" may help me in understanding the mentality of the people of Latin America, while my studies in Italy--a country with a long experience as an underdeveloped country--may contribute toward a personal understanding of the problems of poverty, social injustice, and political instability. Three months of experience in …

The Role Of The Federal Government In The Industrial Expansion Of Utah During World War Two, Anthony Thomas Cluff

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

For ten years the American economy had been depressed. Unemployment haunted economic planners, low production plagued manufacturers, low incomes impoverished wage earners, and everyone hoped for the dawn of new prosperity. It was as if recovery had waited for an untrodden decade to arrive before heralding the new day. The New Deal brought Social Security for old age, insurance for bank deposits, new guarantees for labor, and a score of public work projects, but it did not bring economic recovery.

Some Effects Of Modern Weapons Systems Development On The American Economy, Maurice Braginsky

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The Cold War goes on! And the use of military strength by the United States as a backdrop to other forms of persuation--political, ideological, diplomatic, and economic--continues. The use of a military backdrop as an instrument of national policy will probably continue indefinitely because it is unlikely that the Soviet Union or Communist China will change their objectives of expansionism; it is too much an integral part of their ideology. The easing of tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union since the Cuban crisis in 1962 is perhaps an indication of a change in tactics and diplomacy, but …

The Role Of Cooperative Societies In The Economic Development Of India, A. M. Rananavare

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The idea of cooperation is not new to man. It is as old as man himself. Cooperatives are an almost universal form of organization today found in practically all countries and used by people in many ways. The cooperatives are formed to secure low cost credit, to purchase supplies and equipment for farming and household needs, to market products, even to secure many services, like electric power, irrigation, health, and insurance. Cooperatives can be used in many ways to benefit people in the everyday needs of life.

The meaning of cooperation is that isolated and powerless individuals can, by combining …

A Study Of Thailand's Balance Of Trade 1953-1962, Suchin Worawongwasu

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

International trade theory suggests that trade can be advantageous to the industrial as well as to the underdeveloped countries. For the latter, specialization and exchange brings about an increase in total productions.

Thailand, an underdeveloped country, has for the past decade experienced an unfavorable balance of trade. A primary producing country, Thailand principally exports rice, rubber, tin, and teak. Her principal imports are manufactured goods, machinery and transport equipment, mineral fuels, lubricants and chemicals.

The thesis is intended to investigate the causes of this adverse balance of trade. Thailand's four principal exports accounted for an average of 74.7 percent of …

Current Proposals For Changes In Reserve Requirements Of Commercial Banks In The United States, William Byrd Harrison

Master's Theses

The well-being of a nation is dependent in large part upon the state of its money. Bank reserve positions have a great deal to do with the state of our money. An impressive volume of study and evidence has been brought forth in just the past few years to indicate that United States laws which establish the rules under which financial institutions operate need revising. Other, more readily understood topics, however, however claimed the attention of the public and its representatives in Congress. Little has been done to remedy serious shortcomings in banking laws.

This paper examines briefly these studies …

International Law And The Third World, A. A. Fatouros

Articles by Maurer Faculty

After a detailed examination of the unique position of the emerging nations, the "third 'world," Professor Fatouros urges that the Western nations should ndertake a change in approach and a reassessment of the objectives of international law since the present situation of international society is so dissimilar to that in which the law evolved. He concludes that special, new rules should be formulated, based on a broad and positive consideration of the urgent need of the emerging nations to develop their natural resources as effectively and as rapidly as possible-a need 'which international law must take into account if it …

Central Bank Of Nigeria Annual Report And Statement Of Accounts For The Year Ended 31st December 1963, Central Bank Of Nigeria

CBN Annual Report

CBN Annual Report and Statement of Accounts for 1963 discussed the economic performance of Nigeria with emphasis on inflation rate, GDP growth, exchange rate stability, banking sector performance, monetary policy, financial stability, fiscal policy, and regulatory updates. Nigeria's economy made significant gains in 1963. The tempo of activity advanced in most sectors of the economy, giving indications of some recovery from the slackened pace of the preceding year. Despite this improvement, however, the performance of the economy did not meet expectations, nor were existing resources fully utilized. In 1962-63, gross income received by producers of agricultural export commodities rose by …
