U N IV E R S IT Y O F S O U T H E R N C A L IF O R N IA LOS ANGELES 7 March 15, 1951 Mr. M. S. Eccles Board of Governors Federal Reserve System Wa shington, D . C . Dear Mr. Eccles: More than two years ago, January 11, 1949, to be exact, you mentioned in a letter to me that sometime in the future you would be willing to speak off the record to the members of The Southern California Economic Association if it could be arranged at a time convenient to you. Since meeting with you in Washington in Septem ber, when I was one of the members of the seminar group from the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, I am even more anxious to have you speak to our group. If you have time during your trip West in April, I hope you will consent to address our group on Friday, being April 6. We are a relatively small group which meets in formally from time to time. Unfortunately we are unable to offer you anything in the way of an honorarium. Even though you are unable to meet with our group I look forward to seeing you during your visit to Los Angeles. Very truly yours, Kenneth L. Trefftzs, Head Department of Finance KLT:pk March 26, 1951 Mr. Kenneth L. Trifftzs, Head of the Department of Finance, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 7, California. Dear Mr. Trifftzs: Your letter of March 15th has been forwarded to me from Washington. I note what you have to say about -your desire to have me address the members of the Southern California Economic Association on Friday, April 6th. As you possibly know, I am planning to address Group Five of the California Bankers Associa tion on the afternoon of April 7th at the Biltmore Hotel. I find that it will be convenient for me to meet with your group Friday evening, April 6th, as according to my present plans I will arrive by plane from Seattle early that afternoon and will be staying at the Biltmore Hotel. I wish you would let me know at your earliest convenience if Friday evening would be a satisfactory time and if so, where and at what time would the meeting be held. You can reach me up until April 2nd at the Ben Lomand Hotel, Ogden, Utah. Yours very truly, M. S. Eccles.
