Despite a slight increase in sup

of hogs remained unchanged at
yesterdays best levels. Initial trad
ing interest was light in most all

selling from $8.15 to 1925, while
extremely heavyweights ranging
from 275 pounds and up sold at
$3.50 to $50. Lights, scaling 100
to 100 pounds, cashed in at 1918

and associate members pay $40. The
number of memberships has now
been limited, and although no firm
membership has been sold the last

that business during 1884 was the

NEW YORK, Feb 5. - An in
crease of Is % per cent IN the
average commission rates charged
by New York Stock Exchange firms
to restore 1924-l925 gross income to
the brokerage business has been
suggested in a memorandum pre-
pared by three Exchange firm mem
bers.
The report presumes that such an
increase in rates would create a
fundamental change in the type of
service performed by brokerage
houses, shifting the emphasis from
providing the simple mechanism Of
speculation, to investment counsel.
The memorandum, which has
been sent to a number of members
of the Exchange, outlines the pres
ent plight of brokers, who find their
volume curtailed without being able
to eliminate expensive service to
customers. 1t is signed by Hallam
