This We regard as improper, since 10

ton. Every organization has the same
criticism made OF il. The trouble IL, as
Mr. Mabon has indicated. the evils
complained Of will not oe rcmedied BY
the proposed measure. but greater ones
will bc added.
In the present operation OF the body
the governing board has control Of its
members. The substitution Of an ex-
aminer will not any better protect the
interests of those concerned in the ex-
change than its own members do where
they have their own property at stake
The line Of safety in operation may
be crossed and recrossed in the mael-
strom ~ the transaction of business.
II any member of the body is sus-
pcctcd Of unfair dealings the governing
board can at once have that man and
his books up before it, and II the man
f. found dishonest in his dealings he
can be- Al once expelled.
