NEW YORK. April 30.-The
special committee working out a
reorganization plan for the New
York Stock Exchange has pro-
crossed to the point where its
recommendations are taking con-

the committees in the board of
governors and the paid staff.

mittees make many of the rules
and the various departmental paid
STATS work under the direction of
the committees. This will be
changed. with the paid staff re-
sponsible TO the paid president and
all rule making in the board of
governors.
The proposal is TO streamline
the Stock Exchange management
into that of business enterprise,
ending the present bureaucracy.
The special committee will also
recommend a reduction in the size
of the board of governors. prob
ably TO 16 from the present 81

Hershey Gardens Will Be ShOwn

And Beauty Comes," a Ko- tiachrome Motion picture, will be displayed by John L. Cavanaugh at the meeting of the Garden Club, on February 10. This meeting will be held at 6 o'clock in the Ladies' Parlors of the Bunker Hill Church.
 The picture contains information concerning the care of gardens, and lawns, and their feeding. Included in it also, is a display of the Hershey Gardens, at Hershey, Pennsylvania.
 The members are requested to bring in forced blooms, such as forsythia, Towering quince, vines and house plants, which are suitable for small arrangements. They are also asked to bring small containers and picture frames, to make displays resembling floral prints. All ma- terial will be pooled, so that each member may use any material which he desires.
 The arrangements will be judged by the popular vote of all members.
