MEYER KEPT BUSY | ON U. . FINANCES Solution of Many Problems | Wins Admiration for Banker’s Ability. . " MR S0 cokoted Press. oy Government's cial problems #nd Bugene Meyer have gone about fogether with only one brief interrup- =on since the early days of the World | ar. It he wishes to do a bit of retro- | spective musing, he can compare April, 1918, with January, 1932, as he hangs| his hat in the office of the Reconstruc- tion Corporation as chairman of the rd. The War Fipance Corporation was much like the Reconstruction Corpora- tion is to be. It had the same purpose: To provide eredit for business. Meyer, a New York investment banker before the war, was one of its original directors. | It was liquidated in 1930 with allf but $10,000 of almost & billion dollars in loans pald back He won't talk about that, or little else, for that matter for publication. Praised By Mellon. Secretary Mellon likes that about | him and other things as »\0]1 The | Secretary of the Treasury ° in 1929 from Government service “I have learned to rely judgment and to feel a sense of secu: ity ‘In your handling of varied and diffcult ‘probloms.” Mellon writes few laudat ‘There are members of the Sena do not like Meyer, notably Brooknart of Towa—who has called him a “Wall Street decoy duck.” Even Brookhart does not deny that he is an astute and trained financier. Meyer has had ample preparation for finance. Born in Los Angeles in 1875, he was graduated from Yale at the age of 20 and then spent two years abroad studying banking Independently wealthy when the war opened, he became associated with the War Industries Board, then with the Finance Corporation President Coolidge named him to head the Farm Loan Board in 1927 He resigned two years later, was named | — vernor of the Federal Reserve Board 1930 and now President Hoover has & new job for him. Favors Care With Funds. He has expressed his v on Gov- ernment financing crisply before Senate committees. Summed up. that Government money should be handled just as carefully as te funds His financial abil auses some of his associates to m but the fact that he doesn’t play golf causes more | comment, perhaps. Away from business, he talks well, plays a keen hand of bridge t game of dominoes and to ri horses. His thoroughbreds have taken ribbons at many shows. He spend: much of his spare time at his farm, Seven Springs, Mount Kisco, N. Y. His son, Eugene, 3d, better known as “Bill,” expects to enter Yale next Fall, and his four daughters also are in school The Meyers are popular in Wash- ington society. Mrs. Meyer is an au- thority on Chinese art. She has writ- ten a book about it and their friends say he stands more in awe of her| knowledge of that subject than he does of all the ramifications and intricacies | of world finance | PARDON FOR MOONEY | ASKED AT MEETING| Legislators Attend SeSSlOn Held at | Quaker House of Worship.
