Mr* M.S•Eocl®s , Chairman
Board ofGovernors of the
Federal Reserve System,
Washington.
My dear Mr. Ecclea tThank you very much for your letter
of June 50th.
Candidly I am agreeably surprised to learn that
you are nob in aeeord with many offpolicies inaugarated and I am
sure that the lack of your advocacy of unorthodox ideas is of con­
siderable value even i f this does not always result ia preventing
the adoption of the same.
I appreciate
in Boston and this has been
keenly analyized matters of
ing through can be induced»

your sending a copy of your address made
read with great interest*
You have
vital importance and i f sufficient think­
the results cannot fa il to be beneficial*

I quite agree that many suggestions made through
business channels are valueless and there is much loose thinking on
both sides of the fence*
Apparently it is no* not tcrouch to hope
that there will be a gradual even if slow trend towards the desired
goal in the interests of the people as a whole*




Very truly.
