~ FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF ST. I^OUIS September 10 f 1935, Mr. Lawrence Clayton, Assistant to the Governor, Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Clayton: When you were here you spoke of the possibility of Governor Eccles visiting us on his return to Washington. As I do not know -where to reach him I am writing to you to ask that you tell him we are most anxious to see him and will do our best to make him have a pleasant visit here. I have talked to Governor Hamilton and he is hoping that he will also visit Kansas City. Please tell the Governor that if he finds he can visit us to wire me how he will arrive in St» Louis and the time so that I can meet him and to let me know how long he thinks he can stay. It would be fine if you also could visit us at the time the Governor is here. Yours sincerely, Governor. September 15, 1955.
