La-de-da, Just Another 1,000 Econ Books To Do
The Student Union Book store has taken its first flyer in the book-publishing business. A 221-page book on economics, published at the suggestion of Richard S. Howey, professor of economics, is the initial text of the venture.
The book, "Framework of the Pricing System," by E. H. Phelps-Brown, [for] College, Oxford$^{®}$
a fellow of New College, Oxford University, is used by classes in Price and Income, Professor Howey and Ira Scott, instructor in business, are using the book in Economics 95.
Sales are expected to reach more than 300 copies a year. It retails for $3.25 and Dr. Phelps-Brown receives a royalty on each copy. The Book store holds the contract for the publishing rights which it obtained from the original publishers in England. Any profit made on the sale of the book goes to the book store.
The book was written by Dr. Phels-Brown in 1936 and published by Chapman and Hall, Ltd., of London. The printing was exhausted

during the war and the publisher was unable to reprint any copies because of bomb damage to the plates. After the war, the publisher felt that sales volume would not be sufficiently high so he relinquished the copyright.
The School of Business has used the book more than 10 years, but during the war, when copies were not available, mimeographed volumes were placed in the library for students. This required many copies and resulted in much confusion for those trying to read their assignments.
Professor Howey suggested to Mr. L. E. Woolley, manager of the book store, that the publishing rights could be acquired and that the book might be published by the book store. Publication rights were granted and the book printed by a photo offset printing process. Pictures were made of pages and plates made from the negatives.
"The Book store is interested only in filling the gap that is created when commercial houses can not or will not do the job. We are not a publishing house," said Mr. Woolley. He also pointed out that the success or failure of the venture would determine the future of book publishing by the store.
Professor Howey said. "I feel it is an immense convenience to students to have the new book, as the congestion in the reserve room of the library has now been relieved."
