for Watson.
Opening of the letter, calling at

the splendid influence put forth by
the senior senator from Indiana, .

Chamberlin.

conference with Downey.
Referring to the home loan bank
bill, Downey wrote depositors:
This act marks an epoch in
American finance and every citizen
of Indiana should be grateful to
Watson for the prominence Indiana
has received through his efforts"
Chamberlin said he favored the
attempt to rent the vacant building
to the government for it would
aid the receivership financially"
But" Chamberlin said, Il doubt
the efficacy of sending such a let

This pointed out advantages Of

Downey allowed his enthusiasm to

Threats never feaze him. He is
an old campaigner. I went around
the world with him once, and he
got a threatening letter every few
days. He just laughed at them.
Five weeks ago he was here, 60

talked about some new threats in
Florida where he has home, and
has been quite active in a local
political campaign. But he laughed
about those.
