Mr. Marriner S. Eccles, Chairman
Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System
■Washington, D. C.
Dear Marriner:
On behalf of the Postwar Discussion Group, let me thank
you again for being our guest last Tuesday night at
dinner. Your remarks were most interesting and pro­
vocative and the members of the group were delighted
to have your views on the outlook.
Please accept my personal congratulations for the fine
job you did. The members of the group could not help
but gain from you a better understanding of the problems
ahead and many of them took occasion after you left to
make quite complimentary observations concerning you
personally. I know of no one who is as effective as
you are in speaking before professionally competent groups.
The copies of your memorandum arrived and they are be­
ing mailed today to the members of the group. In ny
letter of transmittal I took the liberty of quoting the
second paragraph of your letter of October 27th.
With my personal thanks, I am,
Sincerely yours
