dav 10 discuss the subject. but formal action
was taken. It was said as the rules Of the ey-
change ample.

when asked II any bucket shop men had applied
for membership in the exchange. said: They know
enough not to do that This institution is absolute
l. opposed the bucket shop people. and in COM
mon with other exchanges should Ike to
them put out OF business. our rules of admission
are very strict, and we will not tolerate anybody
who is not honest. On several occasions in recent
wears we have expelled members who doing
an Illicit business or who had formed improper
