Commission to review on a

contemporaneous basis these two

integrally related rules (i.e., the short

The Commission also finds good

cause for approving the proposed rule

date of publication of notice of filing

is appropriate to approve on an

accelerated basis the extension through

January 15, 1998, of the pilot program

of the Rule to ensure the continuous

operation of the Rule and to allow the

NASD and the Commission time to

review the operation of the Rule, which

is set to expire on October 1, 1997.

submit written data, views, and

arguments concerning the foregoing.

Commission, 450 Fifth Street, N.W.,

Washington, D.C. 20549. Copies of the

submission, all subsequent

amendments, all written statements

with respect to the proposed rule

change that are filed with the

Commission, and all written

communications relating to the

proposed rule change between the

Commission and any person, other than

those that may be withheld from the

public in accordance with the

provisions of 5 U.S.C. § 552, will be

the Commission’s Public Reference

Room. Copies of the filing will also be

be, and hereby is, approved through

January 15, 1998.15
