Earlier, the Missouri Synod
at its triennial convention in
Cleveland had voted to take
part in planning a cooperative
Lutheran agency.
Throughout the years the
Missouri Synod has cooperated
in certain areas with the Ma
tional Lutheran Council,
formed in 1918, but had refused
to join the agency. Its APPROVAL
this week apparently ha s
cleared the obstacle to forma-
ton of a new association to
take the place Of the council.
The American Lutheran
Church is expected to vote
favorably on this step at its
meeting in October at Milwau-
kee.
Eight Lutheran Bodies
Need for this action arises
from the fact that the council
originally had eight Lutheran
church bodies in its member
ship. In 1860 three of them
American, Evangelical and
United Evangelical Lutheran
Churches-merged into the
present American Lutheran
Church. Next year the Luther
an Free Church is expected to
join this denomination.

went on to the floor. SomO
angles that hit me we're:
The litter: Each transaction
in stocks involves three pieces
Of paper. In addition, the men
walk around with pads on
which they are constantly
scribbling memos, quotes. notes
= and playing tick-tack-toe
too. I noticed-and then drop
ping the pieces Of paper
wherever they happen to ,be
standing. They don't smoke
on the floor but they chew
gum, eat candy and crackers
and also drop the wrappers or
boxes.
srT
Noise Is Striking %
The noise: The NYSE has q
rule provocatively called open
out cry" - which means all
transactions must be stated out
loud so there1l be no secrets
among the men. They open
out cry" indeed-all the time
and when something important
happens. they shout with aban-
don. The noise ranges from
a persistent hum to an up
roar. n
The contrast. The NYSE has
another rule-"You gotta walk,
not run" The men don't run
as they move from post to post
to trade stocks and pieces of
paper - but they sure rush.
Their movements are often
frenzied, their voices excited,
but their eyeS-they're ice. l.
