Monroe Kimbrel · President
M onetary Conference
Remarks by M. Monroe KimbreX
at the opening of the Tenth
Annual Monetary Conference
Nassau Inn, Princeton, New Jersey
March 6, 1963, 5>:00 p .m.
One of the very distinct privileges of the office of the
Presidency of the American Bankers Association is to welcome you to
this Tenth Annual Monetary Conference of the American Bankers Associ
ation. Two of the ten conferences have been held abroad; one in
London and the other in Rome last year.
The original purpose of the first Monetary Conference held
in March 19%h was to bring together into one comparatively small meet
ing, the heads of the leading commercial banks in the United States,
Treasury and Federal Reserve officials, outstanding economists, and
distinguished guests from other countries, where they could frankly
discuss the major monetary and economic problems confronting the
United States and other nations of the world. It was hoped that those
attending the Conference would increase their understanding of these
important problems as a result of the exchange of ideas, off-the-record
panels, and the friendly give and take of informal discussions.
The purpose of this tenth Conference could well be described
in precisely the same terms. Even the format.for this meeting is much
like that of that first Conference.
Our Program Committee under the able leadership of Gabriel
Hauge has again given a great deal of time and thought to the selection
of subjects, speakers, and panels. It is hoped that this year you will
again find the Conference stimulating, interesting, and instructive.
I urge you to participate actively in the discussion.
