520			_aIn this book, the author noted that one of the most striking features of the balance of payments of the United States in the inter-war period was the movement of capital, both short- and long-term, which for magnitude of sums involved and abruptness of changes in direction has never been equaled. The author was concerned to explain the parallel fluctuations in the long-term capital balance and the trade balance. After showing the existence and closeness of this parallelism and noting the shortcomings of previous attempts at explanation. He also advance a neat and highly plausible hypothesis to account for the cyclical movements in direction, though not in amplitude, of the long-term capital balance.
