171 Annals Am. Acad. Pol. & Soc. Sci. xi (1934)

handle is hein.cow/anamacp0171 and id is 1 raw text is: FOREWORD
THE function of an editor is twofold in the preparation of a volume
dealing with current problems of vital interest. In the first place he
must be sure that all phases of the problem are comprehensively treated
by competent authorities, and in the second, he must be sure that both
sides of the case are presented when there are important differences of
opinion. The articles in the following pages themselves testify to the
performance of the first function, and it is hoped that adequate expres-
sion has been given to both sides where marked differences of opinion
exist.
When the volume was planned in the summer of 1933, the only basic
problem of monetary policy was concerned with the suspension and
possible restoration of the gold standard. Since that time the ques-
tions of inflation and stabilization have come into prominence, and the
editor-in-chief has decided to include here the addresses given on those
subjects at a meeting of the Academy on November 22. No apology
is needed for the inclusion of these papers in a volume on banking re-
form, save that it perforce places the editor in the position of including
two of his own articles instead of one as originally planned.
