Capital Transit Stock Trodinq
Probed, No Violation Found

Heavy trading in Capital Tran
sit Co. stock has drawn the at
tention of the Securities and Ex-
change Commission, but no viola
tion has been found, Chairman
Harry A. Mcdonald said late yes

Sure we investigated, it wasn't

were looking for a possible tech
nical violation of section 5 of the
SEC Act. which provides that sale
of a substantial amount of stock
by controlling group in a COM
pany must be registered with the
commission"
Referring to the Wolfson group
from Florida, which took control
of the company a year ago in
September, the chairman said the
SEC found no sale by the group
substantial enough to constitute
a violation. When a group of per-
sons owning as much as 10000
shares sells only about 200 shares,
it is not regarded as a violation,
and we ran across only a few
struggling sales. he said.
Trading Normal Again.
Mr.. McDonald's statement fol-
lowed reports from a number of
Washington brokers and invest
ment houses that they received
SEC forms in August calling for
details Of all transactions in Cap
ital Transit stock. Heavy trading
had brought an advance in the
stock from $40 a share to as high
as $39 after the Florida group
acquired control.
While the SEC investigation
received no public notice at the
time, it was widely discussed in
the financial district here and
trading in the stock soon subsidized
to more normal levels. Sales on
the Washington Stock Exchange
in September, October and SO far
this month have been small COM
pared with those of the preceding
10 months. The price of the stock
also has subsided to around $3.50
a share.
Meanwhile the company went
ahead with plans for a 4-for-1
stock splitup. In applications flee
with the Public Utilities Commis-
sion and the Interstate Commerce
Commission, it has asked per-

at a school board meeting Monday
night.
One of the three, Roy Wise
charged that selection Of the band

for the trip.
Phil Cass, another parent, said
music training for the majority OF
the band students would be neg
/ lected in favor of those who would
make the concert tour
The parents urged that the tour
be cancelled.
