contended unwarranted price increases

The price gain Of l cent, the COM
mission said, meant consumers were
paying at an annual rate of about
s160, 900 900 more for gasoline on jan
uary 81, 1884. than on July /. 1888.
The report also emphasized that "the
combined rate of State and Federal
sales tax on gasoline. ranging from
cents per gallon in some States tc
cents in others, amounts to an aver
age of about 5.l4 cents per gallon and
costs the consumers of gasoline ap-
proximately $700,O0o,000 per year.

not presented itself in years and would
not arise for many years more.
He praised the work of the Banking
Committee in its long investigation of
Wall Street practices, but asserted that
in the light of what had been revealed,
1t was "a great surprise that the COM
mittee left out of the bill the most vital
thing of all"
Bulkley contended the bill, contain
ing a section empowering the Federal
Reserve Board to fix minimum margin
requirements, would give congressional
sanction and Federal protection to the
practice, which he asserted was "funda-
mentally wrong"
Getting credit for speculation" he
asserted, "is far worse than playing
the horses on borrowed money. There
is no sound reason why speculation on
margin should be protected or encour-
aged by the Government or even per-
mitted at all
His amendment stipulated that the
practice should end next October /,
and he argued that this would allow
sufficient period for adjustment to the
new conditions. If the Senate thought
this insufficient. he said, he would
agree to a longer period.

STRINGENT MARGIN
REGULATION SEEN
Pecora Makes Prediction as
Administration Pushes
Stock-COntrol Vote.
nv tha Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Senates surprisingly close vote
on a proposal to outlaw margin trad
ing under the stock market control
bill brought a prediction today that
stringent margin requirements would
ensue.
This forecast came from Ferdinand
Pecora. counsel of the Senate Bank
Ing Committee, as administration
leaders pushed the measure toward q
final Senate vote.
Pecora said he felt the sentiment
displayed yesterday toward banning
margin trading entirely would have
q strong influence on the proposed
regulatory commission in fixing mar
gin requirements.
Bulkley Is Astounded.
Senator Bulkley. Democrat, of Ohio,
who offered the drastic margin
amendment, had little hope for its ap-
proval and was astounded by the
strength of the support it obtained.
Administration leaders Scurried
around the chamber as the vote pro-
ceeded and showed sentiment almost
evenly divided. A shower of last min
ute noes" finally sent the proposal
down to defeat, 48 to 80.
An amendment by Senator Costi-
gan, Democrat. of Colorado, to place
control of the exchanges in the Fed
eral Trade Commission instead of a
special commission was before the
Senate today as it headed into its
fourth session of debate on the bill,
Despite a marked gain in strength
for the Trade Commission plan which
was originally in the bill, Senate lead
ers predicted it would be defeated
Buckley said the only reason ad-
vanced for defeating his margin
trading amendment was a contention
that it would have an adverse effect
upon stock market prices.
There will be some diminution
even under the bill as drafted" he
said, but I question whether it will
cause any great difference"
Hits Lack of Interest.
Senator Glass, Democrat of Vir-
ginia. long a foe of stock speculation.
took the Senate to task yesterday for
evincing little interest in the ISSUE
Senator Norris of Nebraska, veteran
Republican independent. asserted no
one questioned the rightness or justice
Of the proposal.
Congress isn't opposed to stock
gamling," said the Virginian. That's
been demonstrated over and over
again. And the Senate wasn't even
interested in one of the most impress
sive speeches ever heard in this cham
ber (referring to an address by Bulk
ley). At liberal estimate not a dozen
Senators were on the floor"
However, the chamber filled rapidly
as the peppery Virginian, noted for
his fiery oratory. proceeded with his
denunciation of marginal speculation,
with an assertion that Monte Carlo
was not comparable to the New York
Stock Exchange when it comes to out
right gambling"
Norris said the Senate was about
to vote on the most important provi-
sion of the bill, one that is more i'm
portant than the bill itself" The sit
uation. he said, gave Congress an op-
portunity to correct a wrong that had

charged in addition to interest on
small loans. and a bill changing the

The usury bill provides for inclusion
in the rate of interest, subject to stat
utory restrictions, of all amounts
charged, with the knowledge of the
lender, as extra fees in connection
with the procurement of loan. Pro-
vision is made for legitimate charges
for appraiSals and other services
rendered, but subject to limitations
carried in the bill.
The District assessor would be an
