Roy A. Young

COMMITTEE ON THE HISTORY OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
R e g i s t e r of P a p e r s
P r o c e s s e d : MA
Date: 1 1 / 3 / 5 5

ROI A. YOUNG

The papers of Roy Young, bank president, Governor of the
Federal Reserve Board and of the Minneapolis and Boston Federal
Reserve Banks, are still in his possession. Efforts have been made
to pursuade him to allow this Committee access to them, but while
he has consented to interviews, he has as yet shown no desire to
open the papers to study.
No estimate of the size of this collection has been made.

In addition to his own collection, papers of his are
incorporated in the files of the Federal Reserve Boerd and of the
two Federal Reserve Banks which he headed, Minneapolis and Boston.
Further effort should be put on getting access to nis
own papers
