For the first time in history,
the House has approved q pro-
vision to bar certain Federal
employees from membership in
unions.
Z AS part Of the welfare and
pensions plans disclosure act,
the House adopted the provi-
sion to restrict employees in La

OF the new 1.500-nautical-mile

2,500-mile-range Polaris missile

weapon should be ready for use

Proposals for such a law

such safeguards as registra-

visions and the right to revoke

that concerns the AFGE. It Is
affiliated with the AFL-CIO,
which of course has mostly
non-Federal employee members.
Thus, the provision would APP
ply to the AFGE but not to the
independent NFFE or any other
non-affiliated Government en-
ploye group.
Representative Ashbrook,
Republican Of Ohio, who spon-
Sored the amendment, said it
was designed to prevent cases
where Labor Department en-
ployes who are members of
unions would have to investi-
gate and take action on welfare
and pension fund cases involv-
ing their own unions. Ger
tainly no employees of the United
States should ever be con-
fronted by such a dilemma, "
Mr.. AShbrook said.
Incidentally, Government en-
ploye unions are exempted from
provisions of the welfare and
pensions funds disclosure act
as far as being subject to in
veStigation and enforcement is
concerned.
During the debate, Repre-
sentative Pucinski, Democrat
Of Illinois, noted that Congress
"is saying to the Federal en-
ployeS that they cannot belong
to a union other than an I'M
affiliated union"
Representative ROOSEVELT,
Democrat Of California, de-
clared, IT cannot emphasize
too strongly what a very bad
amendment this would be-"
On the vote, the House APP
proved the provision 205 to 70.

increase another $4,000 during
the next fiscal year, for q total
increase Of 131. 900.
Mr.. Stats replied that in

authorized by Congress were
responsible for increased en-
ployment. He cited, for example,
increased social security func-
lions. the space program, the
increase in defense programs
brought about by the Berlin
crisis, etc. Mr.. Stats said en-
ployment would have increased
even more had not Mr.. Kennedy
and the Budget Bureau held
down unnecessary lob expan-
sion.
Chairman Davis of the sub
committee declared, 1--WE have

BIue-Sky Series Protest

A committee from the WASH
ington Security Dealers and
Traders Association has been
named to draft a formal protest
against what some association
members described as "exag-
gerations and inaccuracies" in
q recent series Of stories en-
titled Investors Beware" in
The Star.
Stephen M. Smith of Arden
Perrin Co.. president of the
association, appointed the COM
mittee after a long meeting In
conference rooms Of the Ma
tional Savings and Trust Co.
last night.
Mr.. Smith appointed the fol-
lowing to serve with him on the
protest committee: Dick Mas
terson and James Talley Of
T. j. Mcdonald & Co.; Natalie
Maria and Harland Dodge of
Best and Carey Co.; Jon M.
Cormeny Of Wachtel & Co.,
and Tom Terrio of Terrio &
Co.
Earlier yesterday q special
committee of Washington in
vestment dealers announced it
had voted to recommend a law
to assure more protection for
the city's investors.
The action. following months
OF study, was taken by a special
group Of the Bond Club of
Washington, which represents
a substantial segment of the
city's investment community.
At last nights meeting of
the Dealers and Traders group,
Milton Gordon, attorney who
has practiced before the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission
for some Of the firms, turned
from a prepared speech on
attorney-broker relations to
criticize the series written by
Miriam Gutenberg. The four
part series began in last Sun
days Star and concluded We'd
nesday.
Scores Conclusions
He conceded that the series
about wrongdoings in the
securities business had covered
many points very well, but dis
agreed strongly with some of
Miss Ottenberg's statements
about the type of corrective
action needed.
There is no question that a
blue-sky law would be O good
thing in the District of Column
bia, but the kind of a law de-
Scribed by Miss Gutenberg
would. do very little good, he
declared.
Local laws covering fraud
and Misrepresentation already
exist and a blue-sky law would
only pinpoint them in the Sc
curities business, he said.
In addition to the need for
notification and qualification
Of securities, capital require
mentS and standards Of expert
ence and training, provision |
should be made for surety
bonds to protect the customer
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-02-09

and q system by which the
current financial condition of
the individual firms could be
checked periodically. he said.
Has Another Reason
Mr.. Gordon criticized Miss
+Ottenberg's statement tn q t
Washington had become a
mecca for wrongdoers in the
securities business because Of
its lack Of a blue-sky law.
The capital has a large tran
sient population, which comes
and goes. salaries are very high
and it has an unusual large
proportion of military people,
who like to invest their money
in securities they can take with
them, he said. These are the
real reasons why wrongdoers
flock to Washington, he con-
tended.
He expressed doubt that one
out Of every three Washington
brokers would be unable to get
along under blue-sky laws in
other localities. New York, New
Jersey and other States have
blue-sky laws and violations
there have been more fragrant
and numerous than here, he
declared.
The speaker said Miss Often
berg had been on very firm
ground in denouncing fraudu-
lent operators in securities,
but that she had failed to i'm
press her readers with the fact
that wrongdoers comprised
only a small portion of the
business.
Smaller Firms Defended
Mr.. Gordon said he felt the
Gutenberg series had given the
impression that only older
firms and big firms were safe
to deal with. This is unfair to
younger and smaller ones, he
said.
He also said he felt her arti-
cles planted a general suspic-
ion in the public mind that
over = the = counter securities
were less safe than those
traded on the big markets and
that stocks selling at low prices
were unsafe.
In a discussion following MI.
Gordon's talk, a number of
appeared to feel that
Miss Gutenberg made some un-
fair cancellations. Several
asserted that the
larger local firms were pleased
BY the Gutenberg series
because it was sending the
scared customers Of the smaller
firms to them.
A number said they felt Miss
Ottenberg's criticism of the
lack Of training and experience
among brokers was well found
ed and should be met with a
determined program of educa-
ton.
1t was pointed out that eff
forts to start a training pro-
gram last year had gone far
to line up some out
standing teachers, but there
we're not enough students to
Justify the program.
A number Of brokers charged
hat Miss Gutenberg went into
} discussion of net capital of
brokerage firms without fully
understanding what the term
means. A firm may start with
! relatively low capital but get
additional financing when it is
needed, one critic insisted.
