THE P L A IN F IE L D T R U S T C O M P A N Y
P L A I N FI E L D, N. J.

May 19,1938.

Honorable Marriner S. Eccles,
Federal Reserve Board,
Washington,D.C.
Dear Mr. Eccles:
Nearly a week has passed since you honored
the bankers of New Jersey by attending their
Thirty-Fifth Annual Convention in Atlantic
City and as Chairman of the Committee in
charge of the Convention, I want to express
to you our appreciation of your courtesy in
visiting us. We realize that it must be
difficult for you, with so many pressing
duties, to take any time away from Washington.
It was a pleasure to me personally to have
an opportunity to talk with you and I hope
that this will be the first of many visits
which you will make to our State.
I trust that you enjoyed your stay in Atlantic
City as much as we enjoyed having you'with
us.




Cordially yours,

Vi

Dear Mr, Davis:
Your thoughtful note of May 19th is
particularly appreciated because it was somewhat
of an imposition, after having first declined the
invitation for tne Convention, to change this de­
cision belatedly. 1 am especially grateful to you
as Chairman of the Committee in charge of the Con­
vention and your associates 1'or the arrangements
you made, which could not have been improved upon
from my standpoint.
I trust that you will afford me the
pleasure of seeing you if you have occasion to
visit Washington.
Sincerely yours,

M. S. Eccles,
Chairman.
Mr. H. Douglas Davis, Vice President,
The Plainfield Trust Company,
Plainfield, New Jersey.
