DOCUMENT TYPE: STIPULATION OF COMPLIANCE 

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 

BEFORE THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE 

In re: Myers and Company, and Ardeis H. Myers, Sr. 

Stipulation of Compliance under the Commodity Exchange Act No. 71 

The Secretary of Agriculture has reason to believe that Myers and Company and 

Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., have violated the provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act 

(7 U.S.C., Chapter 1) and the regulations of the Secretary of Agriculture 

promulgated thereunder. No complaint with respect to such violations has been 

issued and Myers and Company and Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., are desirous of disposing 

of the matter by entering into a stipulation of compliance as authorized by 

section 0.4(a) of the Rules of Practice under the Commodity Exchange Act (17 

CFR, 0.0-0.28). Therefore, Myers and Company and Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., 

stipulate the following facts are true: 

(1) Myers and Company is and was at all times mentioned herein a Missouri 

corporation and a registered futures commission merchant under the Commodity 

Exchange Act with an office and principal place of business at 1307 Waldheim 

Building, 6 East 11th Street, Kansas City 6, Missouri. 

(2) Ardies H. Myers, Sr., is and was at all times mentioned herein a 

registered floor broker under the Commodity Exchange Act, a member of the Kansas 

City Board of Trade and President of Myers and Company. 

(3) The acts and practices on the part of Myers and Company hereinafter 

described were carried out by Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., in his capacity as floor 

broker and President of Myers and Company. 

(4) During the period January 2, 1964, through June 4, 1964, Myers and 

Company had on its books an account for Uhlmann & Co., Inc., in which were 

carried trades in Kansas City wheat futures which had been made for the sole 

purpose of paying commissions to Myers and Company by Uhlmann & Co., Inc. All 

trades in such account, totaling purchases of 6,185,000 bushels and sales of 

6,185,000 bushels, were entered into on the Kansas City Board of Trade by Ardeis 

H. Myers, Sr. The Secretary of Agriculture has advised Myers and Company and 

Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., that all such trades were, or were of the character of, 

wash trades in violation of section 4c(A) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 

Myers and Company and Ardeis H. Myers, Sr., agree to desist from such acts 

and practices in the future. They further understand and agree that this 

stipulation shall be admissible 

as evidence of such acts and practices in any future proceeding based upon acts 

or practices other than those referred to herein which may be brought by the 

Secretary of Agriculture against either of them under the provisions of the said 

act. They also understand that it is the practice of the Commodity Exchange 

Authority to make stipulations of compliance a matter of public record.
