NOTED YACHT DESIGNER,
CAPT. HANl.EY, 81, DIES
Built Genesee SO Years Ago,
When She Won Races Against
Canada on Great Lakes.

BY the Associated Press.
QUINCY, Mass. July 6.-One of
the last survivors of the old "rule-of-
thumb" designers and builders of
racing yachts. Capt. Charles C. Han
ley, died ct Quincy Hospital last
night. He was 81.
Veteran yachtsmen along the At
lantic Coast remember days when
Hanleys catboaLs were considered the
acme of racing perfection. He went
far to prove his boast that he could
build a centerboard boat to defeat
any keel boat
His method of design was simple
He would carve a model out of a
block of wood, and when shaped to
the satisfaction of his eye, would
build the yacht from it.
Hanley designed, built and sailed
aboard the Genesee SO years ago,
when she won the international races
against Canada on the Great Lakes.

SWEEPING CHANGES
IN EXCHANGE URGED
Leading Firms Press Plans
for Reorganization of
Control.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,

Associated Press Financial Editor,
NEW YORK, January At has be-
come an open secret in Wall Street that
members Of some Of the leading COM
mission houses are proposing sweeping
changes in the form of organization of
the Stock Exchange.
Renewed STRINGS Of this sort are
heard in brokerage quarters this week,
with the re-assembling of Congress and
the resumption of hearings by the Sem
ate Finance Committee, which IS pre-
pairing to consider specific legislation
to control the exchanges.
One of the chief complaints of some
of the larger firms has been the fact
that under the present form of organi-
zation, the Stock Exchange Is governed
entirely by the floor members. In many
Stock Exchange firms, the actual Stock
Exchange seats are held in the names
of comparatively young men, some OF
whom have been advanced from posi-
tions as order clerks to do the actual
mechanical work of floor trading, but
whose other responsibilities are few.
Another plant heard among some OF
the big commission houses is that a
large proportion of the members of the
exchange, who hold the actual voting
powers IN the organization, are Spe-
ciaiists 'and independent floor traders
having virtually no contact with the
public.
In an effort to remedy this situation
the exchange recently arranged to per-
NIT some leading partners of promi-
nent firms to sit in an advisory ca
pacity in some of the exchanges inner
councils, although these partners may
not hold exchange memberships in
their own names, but it appears that
dissatisfaction is still rife.
Another suggestion which Is being
made in some prominent commission
house quarters is that the president
and other priniipal officers of the ex-
change should be placed on salaries
and urged to give up their own private
business, so that they could devote
their full time to managing the ex-
change.
