Arthur F. Burns The Austrian-born Arthur F. Burns was the prominent and influential Chairmen of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from 1970 to 1978. It was Burns that effectively undertook the "stop-go" monetary policy of the 1970s which later led him to be succeeded by the ferociously monetarist Paul Volcker in 1978. Burns stayed on at Columbia and the NBER, where he counted Milton Friedman and George Stigler as his students - a remarkable coincidence given that although both of them retained an apparently deep affection for their old professor, their sometimes vituperative criticisms of the Federal Reserve in the 1970s were very much directed at Burns. cepa.newschool.edu /het/profiles/burns.htm   (298 words)

Irish Boxing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) Arthur was a heavy pre-fight favourite but Burns seemed completely unnerved at the prospect of his first professional twelve rounder and title fight. Arthur seamlessly upped the tempo and Burns (who was going beyond eighth rounds for the first time) seemed to tire as the champion's two handed barrages took their toll. Arthur should vacate at least one of his titles in the next six months and Burns would hope to be in the mix to decide its new owner. www.irish-boxing.com /february06/25_February_2006_Arthur.htm   (511 words)

Scotsman.com Sport - Boxing - Jubilant Arthur tips Burns for top Arthur ultimately emerged as the convincing winner of a far more competitive fight than many had anticipated, one which thrilled a crowd of 2,200 who created the most raucous atmosphere experienced in the Edinburgh venue since the home town hero suffered the sole defeat of his career so far against Michael Gomez in 2003. Burns, the 22-year-old from Coatbridge having only his 14th outing as a professional, did what his more experienced counterparts Willie Limond and Craig Docherty were unable to do in previous all-Scottish battles with Arthur by taking the Leith man the distance. Arthur, whose next contest is likely to be a mandatory defence of his European title against unbeaten Belarussian champion Sergey Gulyakevich at Meadowbank in May, is open to prospect of eventually facing former stablemate Harrison. sport.scotsman.com /boxing.cfm?id=261612006   (949 words)

Schiller Institute Organizers' Discussion with LaRouche, 11/11/01, Part 2 Arthur Burns—I call him Arthur "Rome Burns," because of his history—became associated with the President Dwight Eisenhower, while Eisenhower was president of Columbia University, and during this period, picked up Burns as a key economic adviser. Burns' influence, as I tracked it, was, in the period 1952-1954, in shaping what became the new law, the Internal Revenue law, and other things. And this was, significantly, the influence of the ideas of Arthur Burns, and Friedrich von Hayek, the founder of the Mont Pelerin Society, and of his little American flunkey, his broken-down accountant, poor Milton Friedman, who was really—Milton Friedman was a fascist, and so was Arthur Burns. www.schillerinstitute.org /lar_related/1101_lburg_cadre/q_a_part2.html   (4247 words)

Edinburgh Evening News - Sport - Arthur takes pain on the chin for Burns win   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) For as it was being announced that Edinburgh pride Arthur had outscored Burns by tallies of 117-111, 116-112 and 118-110 on the ringside judges' cards, the winner had a badly bruised and marked up right eye alongside other facial abrasions - courtesy of the challenger's rapier-like left jabs. Burns was so elusive and fast in the early rounds, and that long snaking left jab kept hitting me in the right eye. Former WBA featherweight champion Barry McGuigan was quick to praise Arthur's performance, saying: "As you know I used to be Alex's ring mentor early on in his pro career and I used to criticise him for certain faults in his style during fights but, against Burns, Arthur was as near perfection as matters. edinburghnews.scotsman.com /sport.cfm?id=263102006   (1059 words)

ARTHUR VS BURNS FOR EUROPEAN , BRITISH AND COMMONWEALTH - East Side Boxing Forum Mik, I think Ricky Burns is a helluva young fighter and to be honest I have great hopes for him to become a future scottish great, he has remarkable talent. I will say this though, Ricky Burns has so much natural talent that I wouldnt really be shocked to see him beat Alex Arthur, hes as slippery as an eel and has beaten a Earl who is a really good fighter IMO, and could have given Arthur big problems if they fought. Arthur has vastly improved since his defeat ot Gomez and once this fight is out of the way, I expect to see him attempting to mix it with some bigger names, but this fight will certainly not be easy www.eastsideboxing.com /forum/showthread.php?t=150   (836 words)

Bruce Bartlett on Alan Greenspan, Arthur Burns & Richard Nixon on NRO Financial At his earliest opportunity, he appointed a trusted aide, Arthur Burns, to the chairmanship of the Federal Reserve.

Therefore, one is left with the inescapable conclusion that Burns used the Fed to help Nixon with full knowledge of the disastrous consequences for the economy. www.nationalreview.com /nrof_bartlett/bartlett200404280812.asp   (982 words)
