Mr. Marriner S. Eccles, Chairman
Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System
Washington 25, D. C.
Dear Mr. Eccles;
This will confirm your acceptance of the invitation extended
by Tom Falco to talk to the McGraw-Hill editors1 meeting January 22
at 5:00 p.m. The meeting will be in Parlor 1 of the Statler Hotel.
These semi-annual meetings of McGraw-Hill editors in Washington
are held to afford the men in our company who write and supervise
the editorial content of McGraw-Hill magazines an opportunity, first­
hand, to talk with top Government officials and orient themselves on
what’
s happening in Washington and on Government's approach to forth­
coming problems.
As Mr. Falco told you, the meetings are "off-the-record" in the
sense that nothing you say will be attributed to you, but may be
used as background material to assist our editors in their interpretation
of events to their businessmen readers.
We look forward with considerable pleasure to our meeting with you.

to accept your invitation to meet with the McGraw-Hill editors
at 5:00 p.m. on January

much the better.
I shall look forward to being with you on this
occasion.
Sincerely yours,
