REMARKS:
Because I could find nothing on this and
Thurston knew nothing about i t , nor did anyone e l s e around here3 I checked with the
Small Business Committee o f f i c e at the
Capitol to ascertain whether i t was verbal
or through a l e t t e r , ana i f a l e t t e r i f they
could give me the date — they advised
that:
On June 6th (and our records shows 11:00
o ' c l o c k on that date) Mr. Sullivan Jones
had a personal interview vdth you during
which you agreed to make the statement
referred to in this l e t t e r . No doubt this
w i l l bring the matter to your mind.

Federal Reserve System,
Twentieth St• and Constitution Ave. N.Yf.,
Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. Ecclesa
It i s gratifying to learn that you would consider making a statement in a hearing of this Committee
with reference t o the possibility of using credit as a
stabilizing force in the f i e l d of construction.
Because of the impending recess of the Congress,
the hearings scheduled for the last days of June and early
July have been postponed until f a l l *
I will confer later with you relative t o a
convenient date f o r your future appearance, the other
witnesses handling certain aspects of the same general
subject and the scope of their statements.
Thank you for your interest.
