 Groups of Commodities Most Affected by Crises 



It will be noticed first of all that, as a rule, the more severe the 

 crisis the greater the number of groups which are severely af- 

 fected, the crises of 1857 and 1873 standing first in this regard. 

 On the other hand, the crisis of 1848 in the United States and 

 1866 in England, both of which were comparatively mild, show 

 but one group each.
