BOARD OF G O V E R N O R S OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM WASHINGTON R-768 A D D R E S S OFFICIAL C O R R E S P O N D E N C E TO THE BOARD January 1-4- 1943L Dear Sir: There is enclosed for your information a copy of a letter, dated January 7, 1941, from Mr, Henry H. Heimann, Executive Manager, National Association of Credit Men, to which is attached a list of the Association's local offices throughout the United States. Mr. Heimann states he has had many letters suggesting that the local offices of the National Association of Credit Men would be pleased to hold meetings, inviting all small business executives to attend, if representatives of the Reserve Banks would address the meetings and explain the Defense Program. Mr. Heimann suggests that the Reserve Bank field representatives contact these local offices* I have advised Mr. Heimann that I would forward a copy of his letter to you with the suggestion that your field representatives cooperate fully with the local offices of the National Association of Credit Men in all matters pertaining to National Defense. A copy of this letter, with enclosures, has been sent to the field representative at your head office and each of your branches, if any. Very trul^jyours, Enclosures 2 Ernest G. Draper TO THE PRESIDENTS OP ALL FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS COPY TO FIELD REPRESENTATIVES (Enclosures to Presidents and field representatives only) NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CREDIT MEN R—768a Executive Offices - One Park Avenue New York, N. Y. January 7, 19-4L. Hon. Ernest Q. Draper Federal Reserve Board Washington, D. C. Dear Ernest$ By bulletin I advised our local offices about the part the Federal Reserve System would take in developing interest in the defense program anong snail business enterprises. I have had nany letters suggesting that the local offices would be pleased to hold meetings at which they would invite all snail business executives if your representatives would address these nen and explain the whole program to then. I really believe this affords you one of the best ways of getting it before the smaller business executives. As you know, we have 118 offices throughout the United States and each one of these local offices holds monthly meetings. Furthermore, our membership generally conpnises most of the business orgainzations in the area. I might suggest that if it were consistent you may desire to bulletin your representatives asking them to get in contact with our local offices# You will find a ready response. Naturally our only purpose is to try and be helpful in the matter and I do believe we have a medium that could be used to good advantage and it would be a patriotic service we would be delighted to undertake* Fbr your information, I am attaching a list of our various offices.
