BDARD DF GDVERNDRS DFTHE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM WASHINGTON ADDRESS OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE TO THE BOARD November 3, 1936* Chairman M. S. Eccles, Board of Governors, Federal Reserve System, Washington, D. C* Personal and Confidential Dear Governor: I am enclosing some material on the Division* There is a short memo on the arguments for assigning the new men to my section and a list of topics indicating in £roid terms the fields in which they would work. Its purpose is to show that the work would be monetary in nature and would involve no duplication of existing work. I am also enclosing a longer memo I wrote before my last conference with you* It is general in nature, but you might pick up an idea by glancing over it. I discovered yesterday that Mitchell is an old and close friend of Goldenweiser1s, and that the idea is to invite Viner first and Mitchell later. Don!t you think it would be better to have them here together and make a joint report? Bryan wrote me confidentially some time ago that he had sent some material here. Heither Thurston nor I have seen it and I suggested to Thurston that he might raise the general question of a tax man and in this way ascertain the present status of Bryan1s case. Sincerely yours,
