Mr. A. D. Noyes, of the editorial staff of the New York Post, will deliver lectures on "The Recent Economic History of the United States" in the Fogg Lecture Room, Monday and Tuesday evenings at 8 o'clock. In the first lecture, Mr. Noyes will discuss the industrial revival after 1896, the causes and circumstances of the financial recovery from the previous hard times, the prosperity of the agricultural regions, and the so-called "American invasion" of foreign markets, with its economic and political consequences. In the second lecture, he will take up the events from 1900 to the present day, and will consider the speculative craze of 1901, the great capitalization of trusts, the reaction of 1903 with the accompanying remarkable fall in the prices of securities, and finally, the experiences of the present year.
Mr. Noyes is well known as a writer on financial subjects, and is the author of a book on the financial history of the United States from 1865 to 1896.
The lectures are open to the public.
