O ’C O N N O R S A L T L A K E CITY, UTAH MANAGER May 26th. 1936. Hon. Marriner S. Eocles, Chairman, Federal Reserve System, Washington, B.C. Dear Marriner: Thanks for your letter of May 14th., with the copies of your talks. These embrace substantially many, of the things that you told us at our Alta Club dinner, and I would like you to send me 100 copies of each of these speeches. Please also send me a bill for preparing and mailing these. I want to distribute these among some of my business friends here, whom I know will be very much interested in receiving them, and who, despite their politics, are broad-minded enough to recognize such a clear, concise explanation of what the administration has been endeavoring to do, as you have set forth. During the past few months there has been a decided lull among my Republican friends in their condemnation of President Roosevelt, and I think that many of them are beginning to see the necessity and the wisdom of most of the administration policies. We are having delightful weather here now, and everybody is thinking and talking fishing, and getting ready to spend Decoration Day up around Yellowstone park. I hope you get out this summer for some fishing and a rest up in that vicinity. Again many thanks for your thoughtfulness in remembering ray request. Kind personal regards. Sincerely, June 3> 1936 Ur. ft. J . O'Connor, Manager, iimerican Smelting and Refining Company, Salt Lake City, Utah. My dear Mr. O'Connors Mr. Eccles has asked me to thank you for your letter of May 26th which he appreciated receiving.

There will be no charge for these copies inasmuch as we already had them available. Very truly yours, Secretary to Mr. M. S. Eccles. Vl:b
