the Kaiser-Frazer Corp. testified
today that Detroit brokers urged
them to take part in the auto firms
$4,000, 900 stock deal last February.
Their statements to the Securities
and Exchange Commission forged
the last link in a chain Of advance
information extending from Otis 81
Co. to the investors who dumped
their stock February 3.
The SEC is looking into the sud-,
den withdrawal of Otis g. Co. and
the FIRST California Co. from an.
agreement to market 100000 shares
of Kaiser stock. =.
James H. Woodhead, assistant
secretary of Kaiser Frazer, said he,p

Detroit broker. :
Eight or 10 Calls Made. :
well, see you're going through
with your stock offering" Mr. Wood
head said Mr.. Luchtman told him. !,
II didn't know that" Mr.. wood
head said he replied. .
yes, we have information from,
Otis & Co. that the new issue Is CO.
ing at one-half point below thee
close of todays market" the wit
ness said he was told. x,
Mr. Luchtman's was one of g or
10 calls from brokers that day, Mr.
Woodhead added The new stock !:

OF it back the next day.
In earlier testimony. brokers have
said they were tipped off by Otis

their clients to dump stock on the
market that day at $3.50 and buy
it back February at $13 a share.

to keep the price pegged at $780,
