lly deev Governor Eccles:
Mr# Preston. Delano has spoken to me about the matter of having
Vx. J. !!. Daiger of your staff associated with the Housing subject.
I am in complete accord rath this idea, but as I wpnt to Iceep the number
on the Central Planning ^roup as sraall as I can (if possible not exceeding seven or eirht), I will see if we canft get l£r. Daiger connected
with one of the important sub-coonittees*

I hope this will be sat-

isfactory, and I may add that I am anxious that you should retain your
interert in tee subject of housing m d its relation to the general recovery program.




TOTJTS

very sincerely,

My dear Mr, Delano:
I appreciate your letter of October 16th
relative to your arranging for Mr. J. M. Daiger to
be associated in some way with the Housing subject.
as you know, I have always been greatly
interested in the housing Program and wish to be in
as close touch with it as possible. In view of the
fact that I personally cannot taite any active part
in it, I would appreciate any consideration shown
Mr. Daiger in permitting him to be associated in the
matter so that he may keep me informed of the activities in connection with the Housing subject.

Sincerely yours,

1. S. Eccles,
Chairman.
