To Discuss Proposals
With Frunk
Rv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-William
McC. Martin, jr., president of the
New York Stock Exchange, will go
to Washington tomorrow to discuss
with Jerome Frank, chairman Of
the Securities and Exchange Com
mission, changes in the Federal
bankruptcy laws suggested by the
Public Examining Board which the
exchange recently appointed to
study proposals for the safety of the
public in market dealings, 1t was
disclosed today.
The changes involved would make
it clear that customers segregated
cash and securities are not SUBJ
iected to general creditors claims
in case of insolvency and would
penalize firms failing to SO segre-
gate.
Two committees are at work on
recommendations of the Examining
Board for fidelity insurance for
partners of member firms and
means of increasing the exchanges
revenues.
Some of the committees recon-
mendations have already been made
effective. One will require member
firms to distribute financial state
ments audited by independent public
accountants and another would
raise the capital requirements Of
firms dealing with the public tt

an application from receivers for

authority to purchase nine new Die

of the same type.

Morgan Role in Placing
War Orders Uncertain
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. III. P Nor
gan & Co. have not yet acted as
agent for English or French war or
ders of American materials, it was
learned today Final decision as to
the firms future course has not been
made, it was understood.
During the last war the firm
placed orders for those two allies ex-
ceeding a total sum of 5000 900 600.
Subsequently, Morgan partners were
questioned by a congressional COM
mittee concerning their wartime ac-
tivities.
Although j. P. Morgan himself
said upon his return from England
last week that it would be "a natural
thing" for the British to call upon
the firm to act as purchasing agent,
no such arrangement has been en-
tered into.
Formal agreements were made by
the firm early in 1915, with United
States Government approval, with
England and France in the last war.

Sharp Rally Staged
By British Pound
After Slump
London Committee Sets
Conditional Rote at
$4.02 Mark
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Following
an early break Of more than 20 cents
in terms of the dollar the pound
sterling rallied sharply today on
announcement of the Bankers
Foreign Exchange Committee that
American demand for dollar ex-
change would be conditionary sat-
isfied in the London market at the
rate of $402.
The forenoon tumble carried the
British unit down to $3.76l2, the
lowest level since May, 1888. On the
late rally it pushed back above $3.50
Yesterdays closing rate was $4.
The Foreign Exchange Commit
tee, of which r. F. Loree, vice presi-
dent of Guaranty Trust Co, is
chairman, said it understood that
any American demand for dollar
exchange will be satisfied in the
London market at the rate of S4.02
if such demand is In connection
with the liquidation of American
owned pre-war sterling balances or
with current trade transactions with
the British Empire.
The franc slid off with sterling
in the early transactions.
Britain has heavy balances of gold
In this country and has modified
the American security holdings of
her nationals, so it may be, 1t was
pointed out, that her fiscal authori-
ties don't consider it necessary at
the moment to hold sterling up
Later, if she makes heavy purchases
here, it would be to her advantage
to have the pound higher so that
1t would buy more in terms OF the
dollar.
Currencies of the Scandinavian
countries, usually referred to as the
sterling bloc" showed little change
,oday, indicating their divorce from
the British unit. The Japanese yen
however, dropped 065 of a cent
The yen has been tied to sterling.
Another feature of the days deal
ings was the temperance OF the
German "benevolent" mark, which
has not been quoted since Septem-
ber 2. 1t was unchanged from that
day. No other mark quotations were
given.
The benevolent mark is usec
largely for sending gifts to person:
within the Reich.
| Since the war started the French
have preferred to have the franc
tied to the pound rather than to the
dollar, so its drop today was not un'
expected.
Canadian dollars again fell, losins
1874 cents; the Swiss franc dropped
0.05 of a cent, Belgian belgas wer'
down Dol of a cent and the Neither
