January 26, 1939

Gov. Marriner S. Eccles
Shoreham Hotel
Washington, D. C.
Dear Governor Eccles:
Congratulations on your speech on "Government
Spending'over the air which I read in Wednesday^
paper.
A business associate and I were discussing
the question recently, each taking an opposite
but moderate stand. Your talk helped very much
to clarify my own thoughts, similar to yours, which
were sown but not cultivated by that communistic
seat of learning - Harvard.
Particularly interesting was the rise in our
national income during the period of government spending, 1933-6 I believe.
Interesting too, was the "frontier" thought.
Realizing that this country has reached a period of
maturity, both of us recently resigned good positions
to attack the problem by promoting improvements in
standardized processes. The immediate result is introduction of a product which makes waxing and polishing
cars as backward as a log cabin.
May I "call" you on your interest in breaking
the frontier and enclose a folder briefly describing
Poreelainize? It is very little known here; better
known North and West. I will not attempt to contact
you about the product, but would welcome very much an
opportunity of explaining it to you at your convenience,
I know that you are a very busy man.
y ours,
Ian Aver
