[Letter] January 2,1894 [to F.H. Giddings]

January 2, 1894, n. p.

Dear Friend,
       Thanks for
good wishes. I wish
you many Happy
New Years. Thanks, in
particular, for your
kind offers in the
matter of the Pol. Ec.
Club. If I can possibly
attend in March
I shall. I am a little
more tied at Amherst
than I was at Smith;
but I hope I can
come, all the same.
A letter from Prof.
Böhm Bawerk says
he attaches no
importance to the likeness
in kind and quality of goods
present in future; that
he insisted on it on the
technical ground that
unlike things can not be
compared. If so how
about the whole law of
value as dependent on the
final utility of unlike
things? Effects from
unlike things seem to be
compared. He is going to reply,
also to devote 1894 to scientific
work, which latter is good
news for all of us.

       Yours Very Truly,
            J. B. Clark
