Ka n s a s C ity L ife In s u r a n c e C o m p a n y Ka n s a s C ity, M i s s o u r i March 8, 1951 O FFICE O F THE VICE P R ESID EN T Mr. Marriner S. Eccles, Board of Governors, Federal Reserve System, Washington, D. C. Dear Marriner: I have just read your talk before The Executives' Club in Chicago, on March 2, which your office was kind enough to send me. I thought you did a fine job and I am in hearty accord with what you had to say. From time to time, I hear rumors of your resigna tion from the Board of Governors and I am always delighted when they do not prove to be true. At a time like this, we need men of your courage and integrity in Washington more than ever. I hope that I will be in the East before too long and will have a chance to see you in Washington. With kindest personal regards, I am Sincerely, Henry H. Edmiston, Vice President. HHEsbls March 13, 1951. Mr. Henry H. Edmiston, Vice President, Kansas City Life Insurance Company, Kansas City, Missouri. Dear Henry: It was thoughtful of you to write me about my speech before the Executives* Club of Chicago on March 2. I am glad to know that you approved of what I had to say in the press release which my office mailed to you. However, in addressing the group I deviated from the context of the press release and spoke extemporaneously on the world situa tion and made the release a part of it only through a mention of it, saying that copies were available to those who wished to have them. I appreciate your well wishing and your express ing a hope that I will stay on in Washington. I am not making any comments either one way or the other at this time. I hope all is going well with you, Helen, and your youngsters, and that you are enjoying your work with the Kansas City Life Insurance Company. With kindest personal regards, Sincerely yours, M. S. Eccles. VEsdls
