A memorial service will bt

The widely known news
paper executive was a former
president of the international
Bank for Reconstruction and
Development (World Bank
and had held a number Of
major Government posts dat
ing back to World War I days
Mr.. Meyer planned his lonG
and fruitful life to fall in
to three cycles. And save fol
the fact that he at length
baked at the third phase
retirement-he carried out hi
plans to perfection.
Entered Public Service
A member of a well-to-dC
banking family, he far surpass.
ed his astute father in finan.
cial wizardry in Phase /. HI
then entered into a public serv.
ice career, making himsel.
available to six Presidents.
Gaping it all, when thu
scheduled time for retirement
came, Mr.. Meyer decided "tht
contemplative life was not TO,
me. least of all at a momen
when our country and thu
whole world were in the throe
of an economic and socia
upheaval."
! That was in 1888, when MI

Herald, and before that as a
Government official in a num-
Der Of major posts. Meyer was
known as a distinguished citi-
zen."
Former President Harry s.
Truman said in independence,
Mo-, that Mr.. Meyer was a
very able and distinguished cit
izen Of the United States and
rendered a very great service to
the Nation"
Mr.. Meyer was born in Los
Angeles, october 81, 1875. His
pioneering father had reached
California in a wagon.
| Eugene Meyer, ST., a native
| of Alsace, France, made his
mark first as co-owner Of the
Paris store in Los Angeles. then
as a partner in the banking firm
of Lazard FrereS in San Fran
cisco. Mr.. Meyers mother, the
former Harriet Newmark, had
reached California 20 years
earlier.
Young Eugene's schooling
began there-it included box
ing lessons from Jim Corbett.
When the family moved to New
York in 1893, Yale became Mr..
Meyers goal, and he finished
a four-year liberal arts course
there with a Phi Beta Kappa
key.
After a year of working in
European banking houses, Mr..
Meyer returned to New York
with the Lazard Freres firm.
But his independence COMPEL
ed him to set out on his own
in 1901, at the age Of 26.
Investing a $4,000 bonus
from the banking firm and
$500 his father gave him for
not smoking before his 21St
birthday, Mr.. Meyer acquired
the backing to purchase a $780,
900 seat on the New York Stock
Exchange.
New Investment Idea
, Three years later he or
ganized a new kind of invest
ment company, displaying a
spark of the genius which pro-
PEELED him through financial
} circles and reaped many mil
lions of dollars.
Mr.. Meyer made a break
with the pattern of investment
. houses whose thinking was
confined to individual indus
tries or companies.
He was credited with form
, ing the first New York
investment firm which based
. financial ventures on a wider
, perspective. He employed
scientists and engineers who
studied the economy as a
whole. AS a result, Mr.. Meyer
could boldly finance ideas still
in the laboratory stage.
PauSes for Profit
: The early 1900s were dra-
matte years for the young
: financier. His imagination was
stirred by the San Francisco
: earthquake, and he decided to
; see for himself the awful dam
age to the city of his youth.
Armed with a pistol in those
rugged days, he rode across
, country, stopping off long
enough in Chicago to make
50, 500 on a market transaction.
In San Francisco. he man.
aged to enhance his financial
position by dealing in rails and
oils.
This was the decade, too,
when he visited an art show in
, New York, and met Agnes
Elizabeth Ernst. 1t was the
beginning of a romance that
eliminated in their marriage
! in 1910.
Mr.. Meyer and all who would
; listen to him escaped ruin in
the panic of 1907. He was
saved by his knowledge of in
ternational banking and the
Interpretation he could place
on the money shortage caused
when the Bank of England
! discontinued loans to American
industrialists.
