    Abstract

    Conrad Leser is our most ingenious model-maker. His latest, consisting of four behaviouristic equations and one identity, yields coefficients of determination (R2) exceeding .93 for all four endogenous variables, prima facie a very satisfactory result as these variable are first differences. The high R2s helped, it is true by two dummy variables z and z' to take care of exceptional figures, e.g. due to the incidence of import levies in 1956. The time unit is a year and the data refer to the years 1953-65 which yield 12 sets of first differences.
