Description

There are a number of different datasets that are used in the process of creating the `ppp_ts.dta` data set.
- `na_data.dta`
- `us_trade_prices.dta`
- either `ppp_icp_CHN_ICPbh.dta` or `ppp_icp.dta` (depending)
- `xm_bec_data_q.dta`
- `tot_xm.dta`
- `ppp_oecd_es_ts.dta`

Functions need to be written that will load these data sets into Python as `pd.DataFrame` objects. If local copies exist, use them; else download data directly from PWT.
