Seventeen members of the Boston Branch of the Clearing House gathered at the City Club on January 23 for dinner and ensuing discussion of the "Future Financial and Investment Prospects in the United States." Allan Cate '21, Manager, introduced Duncan Newell '37, Secretary, who presented Dean Olsen and Professor Harriman, which duo led the discussion. Four hours were consumed in settling all the points at issue. The meeting was a great success, one which can and should be duplicated by groups interested in other fields. For obvious reasons invitations to this party were limited to money changers.
