Guaranty Trust Offers Suggestions for Changing New Securities Act —Treats Issue Fairly. BY RALPH lIF.NDF.RSHOT
Time* Special Financial Writer The guaranty Trust Company of New York has prepared a comprehensive study of the new securities act and has proposed the only substitutions thus far offered for the features of the act which bankers claim destroy its effectiveness. Generally speaking, other important underwriters of securities are in agreement with the Guaranty, which makes its recommendations more noteworthy. It takes the stand that ' the unwillingness of honorable and experienced men to assume the risks of the act should be given serious consideration by its proponents with a view to appropriate revision,” and it takes the position, further, that three of the features must "sooner or
later be corrected, and if not by a prompt enactment of clarifying amendments, then, after years of doubt, confusion and painful litigation, by the costly method of court interpretation and legislative acts growing out of court decisions. The first feature it discusses deals with the recovery of losses by purchasers of securities arising from untrue statements made by the issuers and underwriters The Guaranty says the law is not clear whether such damages would be limited to actual losses and suggests that it be changed to include such limitation. B B B Might Collect Unfairly Many have feared, it continues, that if a security wore to decline in value because of some wholly extraneous and unforeseen disaster, such as a world depression or a war, the investor, by unearthing a material mistake in the registration statement having nothing whatever to do with the collapse of the secur-

ity, might be able to recover the entire purchase price of the security. I*, would also more clearly define that feature of the law dealing with omissions of pertinent material. "The law,” it holds, “should be changed to state explicitly that anything which, in the light of subsequent developments, apjiears to have been a material omission but which at the time of the filing of the registration statement might reasonably have been unforeseen or which might reasonably have been considered immaterial, should not be deemed to have been a material omission.” nan Suggestions Appear Reasonable These two suggested changes woudl not seem to interfere with the aim of the act or to weaken it in any way, with the possible exception that it might leave loopholes through which escape might be made. If properly rewritten, however, it would seem that full protection could be incorporated in the act for both the seller and the buyer. There has been no indication that the administration or congress wishes to penalize either side, and it would be unfortunate if such were the case, for it would interfere with the free flow of capital to industry. The third change suggested by the Guaranty is less clear cut. It would change the provision which makes it possible for defrauded investors to reach beyond the issuing coloration and lay claim to the assets of its controlling stockholders in the event the corporation is unable to meet all claims. It is true, of course, that such stockholders might be assessed for damages even though they were w'holly innocent of any attempt to defraud, and it is reasonable to suppose that such is not the aim of the act. But, at the same time, investors should have some recourse where an attempt is made by issuing principals to hide behind a corporate structure.

WALZER United Press Finanrial Editor NEW YORK. Dec .5.—A bull demonstration in the late morning sent stocks up 1 to more than 4 points and caused tickers to lag a minute or so behind the actual market. Dullness returned before noon, but prices held around the highs of the session and sentiment was considerably more bullish than recently. Buoying up the stock market was a quiet but steady improvement in business. Steel operations are at the best levels since late October, building is better, automobile production is down in line with the usual seasonal trend, but outlook for 1934 is greatly improved and it is estimated next year’s operations will be 50 per cent over 1933, In the market upturn several stocks made new highs for the year, including Allied Chemical at 148*2, up 4*2; Continental Can 74%, up 1, and Dupont 90%, up 1%. Gains of 1 to 3 points were common. Eastman rose to 82, up 3; National Biscuit preferred 135, up 4%; Western Union 56*4, up 2; Industrial Rayon 80%, up 2% ; Missouri-Kansas-Texas preferred 18, up 3%; Liquid Carbonic 27, up 2%; Johns-Manville 59*4. up 2 1 a; Case 71%, up 2; Monsanto Chemical 75%, up 2%, and U.

Mass of Moderate Drinkers Brought End to Prohibition, Being Celebrated Today. BY WALTER LIPPMAXN
TODAY there comes to an end the attempt to impose upon a whole people an absolute rule of personal conduct. The authors of the eighteenth amendment had seen the evils that alcohol can produce. They knew about the drunkard who ruins himself and brings disaster to his family. They know how the efforts to regulate the liquor industry in the interest of temperance had corrupted public life. They concluded that an appetite which had caused so much misery
should be suppressed, that a trade which had caused so much dishonesty should be outlawed. What they overlooked was the conscience of the great mass of people who did not drink immoderately and had no part in the political corruption. These were the men and women who resisted prohibition and defeated it. They refused to give up a pleasure which did them no harm in order to save the drunkards who abused it. They resented a rule of conduct which treated every one as if he were an instinctive drunkard. So they rebelled. The law was at odds not only with their appetites but with their consciences. They made prohibition unenforceable. They encouraged the bootlegger and the speakeasy by patronizing them. They nullified enforcement by discrediting it. In the course of time all the evils which had led
to prohibition were flourishing under prohibition, and in addition a monstrous hypocrisy and corruption peculiar to it. • Some time within the last two years the demonstration had convinced the people that the eighteenth amendment could not and should
not be enforced, that not to repeal it and not to enforce it was intolerable. B B B THE eighteenth amendment long will be remembered as a conspicuous example of a law that produced lawlessness because it traversed the working conscience of the great mass of the people. This generation, of Americans, at least, has learned from it a more certain feeling for the truth that legislation, however noble in purpose, can not effectively become the law unless its purpose is the actual purpose of the great mass of a community. Our forefathers would have said that the law must conform to the will of the people, and by that phrase they would have meant the abiding will, not the momentary opinion or the excited whim which propaganda or demagogery or a spectacular event may arouse. They would have meant the will of the people which is founded in habits, needs and experiences that change so slowly that for the practical purpose of the moment they are unchanging. To that will all laws and all reforms and all schemes must in the long run conform. It is a weird coincident that at the very moment when the nation looks forward hopefully to the ending of the most extensive lawlessness in its history, it is confronted with the action of a public official who openly approves the savage lawlessness of a mob. Governor Rolph’s attitude toward the San Joe lynching was an abject betrayal of hfc office. The reason he gave for approving the lynching amounted to a confession that the government, of which he is the head, is unable to cope with the crime of kidnaping, and not only that it is not able, but that it has given up in despair. a b b TT was a terrifying thing for the head of a government to proclaim that he is unable to deal with a crime; it was cowardly to show the white feather and invite the mob to do what the government exists for the purpose of doing. And it was vicious, not merely because it incites other mobs to more violence, but because it is a degrading admission that the Governor has no real purpose to suppress kidnaping by the force of the law. Yet the truth is, that in their hearts, multitudes of people agree with Governor Rolph. That truth we have to face and deal with. Why do they think he was right? They think so because they are in despair about the failure of our criminal law to work with reasonable certainty. Why there is this failure is a long and complicated story. The fact is plain and simple, and while it is a fact, American communities will be vulnerable not only to desperadoes but to mob vengeance. And so, while it is as important to denounce Governor Rolph as to denounce a commander who surrenders a post he has been ordered to hold, it will not cure the state of mind which Governor Rolph expressed. That can be done only by a reform of the administration of criminal justice which is sufficiently drastic to impress the criminal with its power and the community with its efficiency. Such reform we shall not get while the comfortable people of most of our cities lazily tolerate, and in varying measures participate in, the favoritism and privilege which corrode the foundations of local government. B B B THE struggle against lawlessness is the struggle for civilization itself. It is the herculean effort to bring under control the persistently primitive nature of men, their greed and lust and animal violence, so that their energies shall not destroy them. The laws perhaps can do only
Lippmann
what is most temporary and expedient for the moment; religion and education and morals are the radical forces, since they seek to transmute and regenerate rather than to regulate and police the energies of men, to make them inwardly civilized rather than to restrain them from without. The civilizing effort as a whole has, therefore, no one method on which it can fely exclusively. It is like the effort to subdue the fierce rebellion of the great waters of the Mississippi. No one device will work along the whole course; At this point there must be dikes, at that one anew channel; at another a reservoir, and on the slopes where the headwaters gather it is necessary to plant trees with faith and understanding, and sow the earth with seeds that the ground may be made firm.

UNEVEN BUYING SENDS GRAINS UP FRACTIONS Uncertain Monetary News Holds Future Prices in Small Range. BY HARMAN \V. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Dec. 5. There was scattered buying in the face of an unchanged monetary situation today and grains opened fractionally higher on the Board of Trade. Wheat futures were % to •% cent higher, corn was up % cent and oats were ' to cent higher. Brokers felt that no important upward swing in levels would be forthcoming until there is a permanent betterment of the monetary situation. Interest in the grain market is so light that the general expectation is for continued irregular price movements. It is regarded that a material increase in consuuptive demand is needed to stimulate the trade. Orders have been few and far between in corn of late. The small country offerings of corn are causing much comment. There is still a fair volume coming to market on consignment. Chicago Primary Receipts Dec. 4 —Bushels ~,. . Today.
