pressed little surprise in Detroit
today al a Securities and Ex-
change Commission proposal ban
ming floor trading in the New
York Stock Exchange and the
New York Curb Market for the
duration and the transitory period
following the war.
Schram. who was here TO speak
at an Economic Club meeting.
said that for some time the eX-
change had been conducting a
similar study Of allegations by the
SEC that some exchange mem
herS were trading excessively IN
certain low priced stocks.
He added. however. that the
SEC report was only prelimi-
nary step and said he could nor
comment inteliigently until he
had seen the findings.
SChram remarked that A hear
ing would probably follow opln-
ions submitted 10 the SEC before
the latter part of January by the
New York Exchange and other
interested groups.
"Of course. the whole deci-
sion will rest with the commits
sion itself" Schram said.

Dodge main plant. John M.
Amiss, director OF industrial
education, announced that 100
pairs of cooperative students
from Wilbur Wright, DENLY,
Lincoln and River Rouge high

pairs and each alternates every
two weeks between classes at
their high schools and work in
the plant. 1t requires about
five years TO obtain the indus

A similar five-year co-opera-
tive course has been used
successfully in technical and
university engineering, spon-
sored by Chrysler and II Mid
