Wall Street Flexible Margins to Be Suggested as Modification of Bill to Regulate Stock Exchanges. BY RALPH HEXDERSHOT _ Time* Special Financial Writer
One of the modifications of the bill to regulate stock exchanges throughout the country may be that of making margin requirements flexible. Such a suggestion is to be made, according to Washington advices, and it is safe to say that it would meet with the approval of Wall Street. Speculative excesses are a rather rare occurrence in the security markets, and it would seem that there would be no special point in hampering the normal activities to provide for them. Moreover, flexible rates might even prove more effective than stationary ones, for any increase
would suggest immediately that the authorities were of the opinion that conditions were becoming dangerous. It is true, of course, that administrative authorities might not be willing to take responsibility for lifting margins when they thought such a step was in order. It will be recalled that government agencies were slow’ to put pressure on in the last bull market by calling loans through the federal reserve banks. High officials, in fact, stated that loans had not reached dangerous proportions. a a a Outside Loans Prevented It would seem, though, that if the top and bottom boundaries of margin requirements were fixed by law and the federal trade commission was given the power to regulate them within those boundaries there would be little danger of trouble in the future. This would be especially true, since all loans to

brokers must be placed through federal reserve banks under the proposed law, making “outside” loans impossible. It will be recalled that corporations and individuals loaned huge sums of money to brokers during the last bull market. But when the break came they all withdrew on a moment’s notice, and the Federal Reserve banks were obliged to pump about $3,000,000,000 of new money into the market in the course of a few days to prevent a panic. a a a No Figures Are Mentioned No figures were mentioned in the Washington dispatches as to what limitations, if any, were to be suggested. A iow of 40 per cent and a high of 70 per cent probably would serve very well. When the last bull market got under way margins of 15 and 20 per cent were common, and even at the peak of the boom they seldom were above 30 per cent, except in the case of highly speculative stocif;. The fixing of margins by a governmental agency would serve an excellent purpose. In the past margins have been determined largely by the brokers themselves. In order to secure brokerage business some concerns have been inclined to carry customers at rates lower than those prevailing gonerally. and the tendency has been to force the percentage downward. With all being obliged to require the same rates, the only advantage a brokerage house will have to offer is the service it is able to render. The better-equipped organizations consequently will stand to serve the most customers, giving greater solidarity to the business and tending toward conservatism.
