He CURB IS DEAD! LONG LIVE THE CURB!

the war put a stop to it. During the oil
boom of 1919 there were wild scenes on the
Curb. When the bubble went the way of all
other bubbles, there was loud protest from
those who had been hurt. The city took
hand and the District Attorney investigated
the affairs of the Curb. Officials of the asso-
citation pleaded that they could not keep out
siders from trading on the Curb Among
the hundreds of individuals trading in Broad
Street at times. it was said that only small
fraction would be members of the Curb Mar
ket Association. If the association had a
home of its own and roof over it's head, it
promised absolute control of trading The
home has been built, and it is an establishment
beyond reproach. The building consists of
six stories, the executive offices of the asso-
cation being on the top floor. On this floor also
are rooms for the members. Even every
page has his own locker. On the other floors,
between the exchange floor and the executive
quarters, there Offices and committee
rooms In the basement is a restaurant

Are mostly working people. They take
chance with some of the money they nave
saved out of their wages Just now, when
lots of people are being laid off, those VINO
have the jobs are cautious. That has made
Curb trading slow. Also there has been the
usual early summer slump. But wait till
things liven up bit in the market generally
and you'll see this street just as full OF brokers
That's all nonsense about the city
clearing the street and forcing off. We're
citizens and we have a permit from the city
to trade here. The government gets its taxes
from the deals that go through. We're not
obstructing the traffic and we're minding our
own business, and open air trading is going
to continue
Members of the Curb Market Association
gave their own version of the necessity for
the move to locality where they could have
some roof other than the open sky.
In brief, they put the matter about as fol-
lows There was no way of controlling matters
under the old system. The street might be

busy buying and selling stocks, but out of the
hundreds on the Curb perhaps not more than
800 would be members Of the association.
There was nothing to prevent any from
joining the throng on the curb and buying
and selling. Sometimes these fake brokers
dealt in mythical stocks. There have been
tales of open confidence games. Stories have
been told Of confdng customers who have
been told by their "broker" to bring money
to the Curb. They have been met by their
representatives and their money taken, but
it is claimed, were perpetrated by the out
siders, who brought the Curb into general dis
repute in many other ways.
About two years ago there was strong talk
of reforming the Curb, and plans were afoot
to make the open air market an adjunct of
the Stock Exchange. According to the
Hughes investigation a few years ago, so per
cent of the Curb business originates with
Stock Exchange houses. Also it is claimed
that fully so per cent of the Stock Exchange
membership consists Of recruits from the
Curb. Many Of the stocks on the exchange
have come from the Curb. In short, the
Curb acts as sort of training school for
the more digniied body.

has proved developing ground for many
stocks that represent solid worth But such

Stock Exchange seat, but prohlbltlve in the
sight of the open air broker who belongs to
the protesting remnant that has chung to tbs
old site on the Broad Street curb.
"This change in the New York Curb has
grown out of the prosperity everybody had
during the war;" said one of the dissenting
brokers. "Some of the Curb brokers made a
great deal of money. Then they went ahead
with these plans for building of their own.
But there are 400 Of us now who are still
going to trade here on the Curb We don't
have any big expenses to meet as we would
if we had building. The firm that l rep

nothing like it. I've been trading out here
