IA—14 ** FINANCIAL, THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., = SATURDAY, JULY 13, 1935. FINANCIAL. YORK STOCK EXCHANGE ASKS SAFEGUARDS TRANSACTIONS ON THE NEW SUPPORT APPEARS ON UNDERWRITING A. B. A. Committee Opposes Plan to Lift Ban in Present Form. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Rudolf S. Hecht, president of the American Bankers' Association, says that the association’s Special Com- mittee on Banking Legislation does not favor the congressional proposal to allow banks to underwrite securi- ties or to act as distributors of such issues unless granted certain safe- guards. The A. B. A. committee is favor- able only to what is known as “true” underwriting, in other words, the pur- chase of unsold investment securities from investment bankers, thereby being freed from all liabilities of sec- tions 11 and 12 of the securities act of 1933. The special committee has given much careful study during the last week to the proposed banking act of 1935 as it now stands in Congress. The exemption from liability is not in the Senate banking bill, but it would permit in a limited way the underwriting of securities when ap- proved by the controller of the cur- rency. With the liability clause not in force the bankers would be favor- able to the underwriting proposal. The association’s committee as far back as last February decided that the banks should be allowed to en- gage in the so-called “true” or Eng- lish type of underwriting. This re- port was adopted by the A. B. A. Executive Council. If banks took up from the investment houses unissued portions of flotations, or extended temporary loans to underwriters dur- ing distribution, they would neither be issuing nor distributing securities in a manner that would carry any liability. Committee Is Conservative. In short, it appears that President Hecht and his associates are both conservative and cautious. They are bound to keep these institutions out of any possible pitfalls after all the banks have passed through since the Wall Street tumble and its after- math. Other members of the A. B. A. Leg- {slative Committee taking part in the recent discussions are Robert V. Fleming, first vice president and president of Riggs National Bank; Tom K. Smith, second vice president snd president Boatmen's National Bank, St. Louis, and Winthrop W. Aldrich, chairman of the Chase Na- tional Bank of New York. These financiers have avoided con- troversy on this phase of the bank bill, displaying comparatively little concern in the matter, either way, compared with the opposition they developed to that part of the act which would center so much added power in the Federal Reserve Board. New York banks are more con- eerned than any others in the se- curities angle of the proposed bill. It is expected that the banking measure will be disposed of in Con- gress before long. President Hecht is optimistic on the outlook, believing that a bill aimed in the direction of an improved banking system can be worked by Senate and House con- ferences. Investment Field Held Unique. The Securities Commission uses co- gent language when the facts seem to justify it. It says that the object of a proposed stock issue was “pri- marily to extract gold and silver from investors in this country for the benefit of the promoters and only incidentally to eextract gold and silver from mines in distant Mexico. * * * So much is siphoned away by the pro- moters from the money contributed by investors that an almost negligible equity is the return for the cash con- tributed by the public.” So, that particular group will not dip their hands into the Nation’s capital reservoir and mulct the in- nocent, Spere Magazine comments. No outside agency can keep a fool attached to his money, but even the Tool is entitled to some sort of break. ‘Thus, one does not have to know the value of dry goods if he buys from a reputable store. He can have faith in the price and the quality. Only in the investment field, hitherto, have crooks been permitted to operate freely, and they have done more to create radical political opinion and undermine capitalism than all other influences combined. Knappen Discusses Wealth. ‘Theodore H. Knappen of Washing- ton, one of the associate editors of the Magazine of Wall Street and ‘widely known economic writer, dis- cusses “Sharing the Wealth” in the current number of the magazine. In his conclusions he comments: “Income returns show the savings of families having less than $5,000 incomes are comparatively small, and the Nation must depend for its ex- pansion and replacement of capital ‘upon the snvings of those with larger incomes. * * “If the present nlnoml income ‘were evenly distributed the savings would be utterly inadequate for maintenance, to say nothing of growth. * + = “The larger incomes, therefore, are the mainstay of prosperity. Indeed, they constitute the main foundation for the hope some day everybody will have abundance.” Fire Insurance Chiefs Named.

FOR RAIL STOCKS Number of New 1935 Highs Recorded by Others at Week’s Close. BY VICTOR EUBANK, Associated Press Financial Writer. NEW YORK, July 13—The stock market ended the week today in a falrly optimistic frame of mind. While there was no buying rush during the brief session, the rails picked up a friendly following and a number of new highs for the year were registered in other divisions. The close was steady. Transfers approxi- mated 550,000 shares. Although motor and electrical equip- ment equities were in demand, price changes, generally, were narrow. Im- portant stimulus seemed to be lacki: for the list as & whole. The customary week-end evening-up operations were also in evidence. Wheat was again in a selling posi- tion, but corn was resistant. Toiton was a little behind most of the time Secondary rail bonds rallied. The leading gold currencies improved in terms of the dollar. Shares registering gains of fractions to around a point included Santa Fe, New York Central, Union Pacific Great Northern preferred, - Westiag- house Airbrake, Timken Roller Bear- ing, Poor, Pullman, Westinghouse Schenley and American Tobacco “B ™ Both General Motors and Chrysler made new 1935 tops, hut they were about unchanged at the end. The steels, aircrafts and utilities did vir- tually nothing. United FPruit lost more than 2 and Loew's was off nearly as much. United States Sme ing, Cerro De Pasco and American Smelting eased. The better showing of the carrt stocks was attributed partly o techni. cal influences—they have been back- | ward for some time—and to report that the President would insist on tk passage of the motor bus and truck regulation bill at this session. Rail officials have claimed that unlicensed truck competiticn has seriously a fected the earnings of many roads. Another drop in world silver prices did not do siiver mining shares ar good. Some selling in this group w: attributed to fears that the Treas may alter its plans for the extensive purchase of the white metal. Silver was quite heavy in London and M treal. Imported bar silver in New York was reduced 1 cent an ounce to 6734 cents, NEW YORK BAR SILVER NEW YORK, July 13 (#).—Bar ver weak; 1 cent lower at 677, FEDERAL LAND NEW_ YORK.
