Bankers to Meet at willard.
John A. Reilly, president of the
District Bankers Association, an
nounced today that the midwinter
meeting will be held next Monday
evening at the Willard Hotel, in
stead of at the Columbia Country
Club, as originally planned. The
change is made on account Of the
ban on pleasure driving announced
since the first plans were drawn up.
While the meeting is strictly a
business session and therefore ex-
empt from the recent regulations,
officers of the association felt the
patriotic thing to do was to transfer
the meeting to a downtown hotel
Mr.. Reilly said. 1t is anticipated
that many bankers will remain
downtown that evening, thus elm
mating extra use of cars or other
means of transportation.
Elmer Davis, Widely-Rnown radio
commentator and director of war
information, will speak informally,
MIR. Reilly announced. David A.
Weir, assistant executive manager of
the National Association of Credit
Men, will also address the bankers.
Reservations indicate an exception
ally large attendance.
