Commission Plans to Curb
Boom Time Practices
on Exchange.
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. The
halter which the government has
been weaving for use on those who
use inside information or stocks to
manipulate prices will be frightened
this week.
The securities and exchange COM
mission plans to issue lew regula-
tions that will make an end to the
boom-time practices whereby ia
vored spectators profited at the ex-
penSe Of the public.
The wiles of the inside traders
have been marked by their absence
in Wall Street lately but federal Of
ficers have no hope that conditions
will stay this way indefinitely with
out specific regula +'---~ as to what
ray be done and what not.
The commission plans to define
Just how market traders and brok-
ers can engage in short selling OF
stocks, practice believed by ,e
to be one of the most important
forms of market manipulation.
Ferdinand Pecora, securities COM
missioner, and chief inquisitor of
the senate banking and currency
committee, has had charge of de-
viSing the rules.
~-curities officials will nc; say
Just what these rules might be but
it was indicated that short selling
will be permitted only when not
done for manipulative purposes.
Such manipulation already is
banned by the New York Stock Ex-
change. The government also has
discouraged short selling by a
special tax.
Moreover, securities officials have
records of the New York Stock Ex-
change showing only small short
interest on the market - 1913, 161
shares on July 31-approximately a
full days Stock Exchange +'---''over.
On other matters of manipula-
ton, it is strongly limited, the fed
eral authorities will take firm
hand. Under the securities ex-
change act of 1884 the following
practices are banned and violators
are liable for damages ~---i"'--"' by
the public:
. 1-"Wash sales" or fictitious sales
among a single group to give any
appearance of activity in a stock.
2-Raising or lowering the price OF
a security for the purpose of induc-
ing the purchase or sale of it by
others.
3-Circulation of information in
connection with the sale or pur-
chase of a security that operations
in the market will cause that secur-
ity to rise or fall.
4-Misleadine or false 90 - 5
for the purpose of inducing the
purchase or sale of a security.
5-"Pegging," fixing or stabilizing
the price of security in contra
