The Honorable Marriner S. Eccles

Washington, B.C.
Dear Mr. Eccles:
As I mentioned to you in our telephone conversation today,
I am delighted to hear that you will be with us for our
luncheon of The Executives’ Club of Chicago on Friday,
September 17. I know that our entire membership will be
thrilled to know that they will have the opportunity of
hearing you discuss the vital questions which affect our
economic system so seriously today.
To assist us in the preparation of our advance publicity
material for the meeting to be mailed to our members, I
would be happy to have you send us a biographical sketch
and a glossy print.
We should like to invite some of your friends in the city
to sit with you at the speaker’s table that day and I would
appreciate your giving me their names and addresses. Also,
if you wish hotel accommodations, we would be glad to make
a reservation for you.
I shall look forward to meeting you here in the Club office
at 11:30 Friday morning where we will be joined by our
Program Chairman, Thomas H. Coulter, and our Executive
Director, Major Etcheson. Later we will go to the hotel
where you will have an opportunity to meet the guests and
members sitting with you at the speaker's table.
Cordially yours,

Paul M. Corbett
