Crandall, Executive Manager, Utah Bankers Association, Salina, Utah. Dear Mr. Crandallî I was unable to respond more promptly to your wire of April 13, as I could not give you a definite reply. The Oregon Bankers Association seem to be extremely anxious for me to address their Convention at my old home-town, Baker, on June L4 and 15. I told them that June was a very bad time for me to go West as I expect to be in the West the first part of May and, too, it would be very difficult for me to accept their invitation when I had declined invitations to speak to both the Utah and Idaho Associations on several occasions, including this year. I did say that if I could make all three Conventions with one trip over a period of a week or ten days, I would be will ing to make a real effort to do so, but I find that is quite lapossible as the dates have been arranged , with Idaho on the 7 and 3, Oregon on the 14 and 15, and yours on the 23 and 29 of June. If I find later on that I can attend the Utah Conven tion I will let you know in case you may still desire me to attend. With kind regards, Sincerely yours, June 3> 1946» Mr. H. B. Crand<i.ll, Ixecutive-Manager, Utah Bankers Association, Office of the ¿¡ecretury, Selina, Utah. Dear Mr. Crand&ll: Your letter of May ¿8 was received by Mr. Marriner 5. Eecles just as he was leaving Washington. He asked me to «acknowledge receipt of it^ advising you tnat he will be glad to appear on your program on Tuesday, June ¿9. Mr. Eccies wiii appreciate your advising him at your earliest convenience whether he is to speak at a morning or afternoon session, tne time the meeting begins, and tne approximate length of time you are allowing for his address. If you have a printed program of the entire convention proceedings it »ill be appre ciated if you will forward a copy of it. Very truly y urs, Secretary to Mr. M. £. Eccies.
