Dear Mr. Eocles*
It was my good fortune to be present on
last Thursday evening at the Conference Board’s
two hundred and twenty-eighth meeting, at which
time you delivered a most interesting address«
I realized thoroughly that your address
was "off the record,” and for that reason you
probably did not care to distribute any copies
of it. On the other hand I found it most inter­
esting and instructive and if any copies will
be available to your friends, I would like to
have one in order that I may study some of the
angles covered by you.
With kind regards, I am
Sincerely yours,

H. Hiter Harris

Mr. H. Hiter Harris, President,
First and Merchants “ational Bank,
Richmond>- Virginia.
Dear Mr. Harris:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter
of December k. with regard to my talk before the National
Industrial Conference Board.
I appreciate having your generous comments,
and I wish that I had available a copy that I might send
to you. I have not decided whether it would be appro­
priate or not to have some copies made, but in the event
that 1 do, I shall be glad to forward one to you.
Sincerely yours,

M. S. Bccles,
Chairman.
