The Long-Run Supply Curve: Some Factors Affecting Its Shape, Eugene Darrel Pauley

Fort Hays Studies Series

Since so much importance is attached to the price mechanism in the economic system, it is only natural that a large body of economic theory is concerned primarily with explaining how prices are determined. This writer is concerned with only one rather small phase of this body of theory--some of the influences affecting long-run supply. We are interested here in the behavior of the seller or supplier of a commodity.

The Kansas Court Of Industrial Relations, Jack W. Rodgers

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The Kansas Industrial Court Act has the distinction of being the only one of its kind ever passed. The things it attempted to do had never been done before in just the same way, nor have they ever since been imitated. But, to many people, there had been previous experiments closely resembling the Kansas act of 1920. They pointed to various acts passed in the latter part of the 19th century, and the early part of the 20th, in such places as New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and even in parts of the United States as being forerunners of the Kansas …

The Trend Of Farm Population And Land Ownership In Smith County, Kansas, From 1900 And 1940, Charles Casper Easterly

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

All through their history the American people have lived and developed in the presence of abundant land. If a farm failed to produce profitably the occupants would merely move to the frontier and take up new land. In the few years prior to nineteen hundred the frontier, as a large determining factor in the life of our people, ceased to exist. Many farm problems arose. The spread of the machine process has raised many problems which we have to puzzle over. Power farm machinery has made it possible for one man to do the work which formerly required the services …

Trends In Social Thinking, 1910-1935, Mary Elizabeth Williams

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

This topic has been chosen because of an interest in the economic and social conditions of the present day and a desire to know just how much the changing events of the world’s history during the past twenty five years have affected our attitudes toward certain economic problems. In order to do this, five fields of interest were chosen. These are, banking practice and legislation, agriculture, public finance, labor problems and trusts. I have attempted to draw some conclusions which will show a definite trend toward certain attitudes of thinking of the present day which are different from the attitudes …

The Trend Of Financing Urban Property, Irvine F. Wilson

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

This thesis is intended as a survey of trends in financing urban property. Urban property, as construed by this study, includes all incorporated cities, towns, and villages. This interpretation is used firstly in order that a complete analysis might be pictured and secondly, because investments in property are not necessarily restricted because of the number of inhabitants in a particular town or city. The report abounds not only in graphs and curves which indicate movements, but also explanatory material and tabulated statistics when deemed necessary to present a complete authentic picture.

Trends In Kansas State Governmental Revenue Receipts And Expenditure, 1880-1934, Vernon Thomas Clover

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The main purpose of this thesis is to point out the significant trends in governmental revenue receipts and expenditures in Kansas during the period from 1880 through 1934. Especial attention is given to the state government as opposed to the local governments. The discussion in connection with the latter is confined to property tax levies, expenditures for roads, streets and bridges, and for education. Few new or startling facts are presented.
