Lower Tendencies
Persist in Quiet
Stock Dealings

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Down-
ward tendencies, faint but per-
sistent, cropped out in the stock
market today.

sprinkling of plus signs spotted

net change.
Trading started off with rush
although a definite trend failed
to develop. Business slowed in q
matter of minutes and declines
appeared with increasing fire.

was pretty well satisfied and prices
started to curve downward.
Business news, and comments

distinctly to the cheerful side. The

is still rated as the markets major
barrier.

Exchange Will Vote Again
On Member Interpretations
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The
Board of Governors of the New
York Stock Exchange yesterday
voted to submit to members plan
to allow incorporated firms to be-
come members of the exchange.
At present firm membership is
limited to concerns operating as
partnerships.
Emil Schram, president of the
exchange, in making the an
nouncement, said the change
would be effective November l if
approved by the membership.
The vote will be completed about
September %.
A similar proposition was re-
jected by the membership in No
vember, 1947. The vote then was
the largest on any question ever
put to the members.
Wall Street has squabbled
fiercely off and on in the past sew
eral years over the so-called plan
for "permissive Incorporation"
Those in favor have claimed
among other things, that incor-
poration would allow large tax
savings. Foes of the measure
have expressed fear that unde-
sirable elements might acquire
membership through the cor
porate form.

Both Sides Confident
In Fight Over Trade
Pact Peril Points
BY the Associated Press

The ding-dong Senate battle over
peril points" in trade agreements
today found both Democratic and
Republican camps cautiously pre-
dieting victory.
Both sides freely conceded the
outcome would be close. The Sen
ate is now in the third day of
debate on the administration s
reciprocal trade agreements extern
sion program.
The dispute over the trade pro-
gram has narrowed down to the
peril point" amendment which
Senator Millikin, Republican, OF
Colorado is seeking to pin to the
administration bill.
Sees Good Fighting Chance"
Il think we have a good fighting
chance to win," Senator Millikin
told reporters.
Minority Leader Wherry said he
was inclined to think that peril
point has got a pretty good chance
of carrying"
All Chairman George of the
Finance Committee would say il
that it is going to be pretty close
Earlier, Majority Leader Lucas
had been more optimistic. He told
neWsmen after a Senate Democra-
tic conference that he believes the
amendments will be defeated. The
test may come early next week.
The administration bill would
continue to June IL, 1851, the
Presidents power to adjust tariffs
in conferences with other nations
without reference to Congress. It
also would drop out the peril
point provision placed by the Re
publican-controlled 80th Congress
in the one-year extension which
expired last June II.
Millikin Gives Views.
Senator Millikin's amendment
would require the President to re-
port to Congress whenever, in a
trade agreement, he authorized a
tariff below the rate which the
Federal Tariff Commission consid-
ers safe for American business.
Proponents say such a provision
is necessary to protect American
business. Opponents say it is un-
necessary and harmful to trade
negotiation procedure.
Senator Millikin set forth his
views to the Senate yesterday in
a speech lasting several hours.
THE reminder that it would be
best to make sound agreements
when they are made, and the op-
portunity to justify when peril
points are exceeded, should not be
alarming to anyone who is con-
fident of the soundness of that
which was done," Senator Millikir
said.
