THE PLAZA BANK OF T W E L V E THIRTY O L I V E SAINT ST. LOUIS STREET LOUIS F. R. V O N W I N D E G G E R PRESIDENT August 28, 1945 My dear Mr, Eccles: Again let me express my pleasure and my appreciation for the time which you took from your busy day to spend with me last Thursday. The copy of your statement before the House Special Committee on small business was most helpful to me, and with Chairman Wagner1 s permission, I filed it as an appendix to my statement on Senate Bill 330, marking particularly the paragraphs which you read to me. In introducing it, I took the opportunity to call the Bank and Currency Committee's attention to your outstanding ability and service. This certainly could have done no harm. Now that I've given away the only copy that you gave me, won!t you please have your secretary send me another copy for my files? Gratefully, Honorable M. S« Eccles, President Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Federal Reserve Building Washington, D. C. September 6, 1945• Mr* F. K. vonftindegger, President, The Plazatfankof St. Louis, 1230 Olive Street, St. Louis, Missouri. Dear Mr. vonftindegger: At Chairman Eccles1 direction I have mailed under separate cover another copy of the statement which you were good enough to put in the record as part of your own remarks when you were before Chairman imagner's Committee. I very much regret that I did not have the privilege of meeting you while you were here and hope that omission will be repaired the next time you come to Washington. Mr. Eccles has spoken a number of times about how much he enjoyed seeing you and talking with you. I might add that he felt very much embarrassed by having been so long detained upstairs before he got back to his office to see you. Sincerely yours, Elliott Thurston, Assistant to the Chairman. ET:b
