Mr. Irving Amdur,
4721 - 41st Street,
Long Island City, New York.
Dear Mr.

A m d u r:

Chairman Eccles requested me to ac­
knowledge receipt of your letter of December 4
and to send you the enclosed text of his recent
talk before the National Industrial Conference
Board.
Newspaper reports of Mr. Eccles* talk
were much garbled. No reference was made to the
Johnson Act and the only allusion to the matter
of credits, as you may note from the text of the
address, was in connection with the effects upon
the banking structure of continued gold and sil­
ver acquisitions.
Very truly yours,

Elliott Thurston,
Special Assistant
to the Chairman.
