The Honorable James 8* Webb,
Director, Bureau of the Budget,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Webb:

Mr. Eccles went t o Yew York to have Thanksgiving
dinner with some of his family and enjoined me to see that
you received the enclosed statements which he presented be*
fore the Joint Committee on the Economic Report; one dealing with the so-called special reserve requirement and the
other with credit for housing. He f e l t that you should
have these statements i n the light of the preceding d i s cussions in which you participated. He w i l l probably have
t o appear again before the Joint Committee as well as before the respeotive Banking and Currency Committees.




I am also sending copies to Mr. Clifford, Mr.
Steelman, and the Council of Economic Advisers.
Sincerely yours,

Elliott Thurston,
Assistant to the Chairman,
