Honorable M, S. Eccles,
fo Federal Reserve Board,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Eccles:
I appreciate receiving your letter of the
21st and assure you it is a pleasure for me to be able
to contact Senator ^arey in your behalf. If there is
anything further in this connection that you feel I
can do for you, I will be only too glad to give it
my attention.
I was only in Washington for one day on
my return from New York. I should have enjjoyed a short
visit with you, but upon calling your office found that
you were very busy and as I have had seme experience
in public life, I know something of what you are up
against so thought it best not to insist further upon
seeing you. I had nothing in particular to talk about
but I did want to advise you of some rather influential
contacts I had in New York that were inclined to be
luke-warm over your appointenent and I am convinced that
after I was through talking with them, that they had
an entirely different understanding of you.
We will perhaps have an opportunity for a
personal contact the next time I am east or at such
a time as you are west during the forthcoming summer.
With kind personal regards, I am
Sincerely,
