nounced that more than a dozen
brokers have complied with the
committees demand and placed their
books at his disposal. A great many
more. Whipple said. have assured
him that their accounts will be rem
dered just as soon as the clerks and
bookkeepers can prepare them
Among them was Barney Baruch,
who is supposed TO have cleaned up
a million" in the street during that
period.
Little doubt was expressed at
Whipple that enough data will be
at hand TO enable the committee to
resume its hearings here the first of
next week.
The committee expects TO learn
from these accounts who We're the
big operators in the market Just
prior TO the publication Of the pres
ident's peace note and Will then
summon these individuals 10 find out
if they had any advance informa-
ton on the note, and, if so, where
they got il.
The adjournment came after the
committee had been informed by
Chairman Samuel +. STREET. of the
stock exchange clearing house COM
mittee, that it would be physically
impossible for the six hundred or
so brokerage houses belonging TO
the exchange to produce the desired
data within two weeks or a month.
This was in conflict with an earlier
statement 10y Pres't II. G. ). Noble
Of the exchange. who thought the
first response might come within a
day or two The committee went in
to executive session on the subject
with STREET and Noble and its eX-
perts The result was that the COM
mittee submitted TO the board of
governors of the exchange a sup
elemental request TO be transmit
ted TO the brokers which was eX-
pected not only TO simplify the
bookkeeping task of furnishing the
desired data. but also to provide for
concealment OF the names OF Gus

need not be involved i'm the inquiry.
Want Cause of short selling.
The committee is seeking only TO
discover those responsible for the
big short selling operations which
are supposed TO have reelected pos
session of an advance tip on the

actual accounts are 10 be submit
ted in one envelope and the name
of the customer in another with a
common symbol for both. If the
account on examination appears in
nocent, the envelope containing the
name will remain sealed.
The board of governors agreed
TO submit the request and the com
mittee went away assuming that the
brokers would accede 10 it but the
committees counsel. Sherman l..
Whipple. made it plain that if any
broker dissented, the power of con-
gress would be used TO force nim TO
