Economic downturn relevance?
The following line seems irrelevant to his biography: "While he was in this post, the United States experienced the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression." I am not sure what the Commissioner of Labor Statistics has to do with this fact, except that he would have been in charge of collecting and disseminating statistics about labor during an economic downturn.

 * At least it's no longer in the "Legacy" section. I was assuming it was relevant to his having suggested criteria for defining a recession, but I don't think there is a source cited actually saying this. If no source explicitly making the connection can be found, perhaps it should be removed? Brunton (talk) 19:03, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
