Stock Market Shocked
Both brokerage firms dealt
in stocks as well as commodi-
ties. The scandal unnerved the
stock market and caused price
declines shortly before the mar

Kennedy was aSsassinated.
The Commodity Exchange
Authority in the Agriculture
Department Is the agency as
signed to regulate commodity
trading, but its authority is
limited.
Congress OK Expected
Despite the reluctance Of the
commodity exchanges, chances
are good this time that Con-
gress will grant the authority
There may be a dispute. how

power to the Agriculture De-
partment. as the administra-

Senator williams is consider
ing legislation to lodge the au-
thority in the Federal Reserve
Board or the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Senator williams also is in
quiring into whether the CEA
effectively used the authority
it has. Agriculture Department
officials vehemently deny any
laxity.
The CEA started worrying
about Mr.. DeAngelis' opera
tons long before the bubble
burst. and consulted with Of
ficials of the commodity ex-
changes about possible correc-
tive measures. But the CEA
contends it had no authority to
take preventive action on its
own.
That's why the Agriculture
Department has drafted legis-
lation that would authorize the
Secretary to seek injunctions
against possible attempts to
manipulate prices or corner
markets.
Paper Oil Tanks
Under present law, according
to the agency's Interpretation,
the Secretary can take admin

criminal action by the Justice
Department only after such
violations have occurred.

Exorbitunt Costs
In Borrowing
Cited by Douglas

BUFFALO, N. Y, Jan. Z
(AP).-Senator Douglas, DEM
ocrat of Illinois. says Ameri-
cans are paying millions of dol
lars in hidden costs on bor-
rowed money.
He said banks charge debtors
exorbitant sums by asking for
interest on a monthly basis
rather than on a yearly rate
and by not reducing interest
costs as debts are reduced.
"In the field of used cars. /"
he said, hidden charges gen.
orally run at "a to 30 per cent;
often they run so per cent and
sometimes they run 100 per
cent or more" He did not elab-
crate.
His bill to require that debt
ors be informed of exactly what
they had to pay on credit they
received has been languishing
in committee for three years,
Senator Douglas said.

Present election spending

Senator said, noting that Fed
eral laws now require no re-
ports or controls on primary
campaign spending and con-
tributions even though these
ARE often the crucial elections
In the American system and in
some sections of our country
they are the only important
elections"
Senator Proxmire urged con-
gressional attention to recon-
mendations made last year by
a presidential commission on
corrupt practices, including tax
deductions for small political
contributions.
TV Suggestion Lauded
He also lauded a suggestion
by Chairman Newton Minow
of the Federal Communications
Commission that Substantial
television time be made freely
available to major candidates. /"
Senator Proxmire said Con-
gress should "act promptly to
require detailed reports, in
cluding a full Identification of
contributors. the amount con-
tributed and the manner in
which the funds were spent,
and above all there should be
a cutoff date on contributions
several days in advance of elec-
tions, with ample time to in
form the voters Of how much
each candidate is spending and
where the money is coming
from"
Last year the Senate passed
a bill which sought to tighten
and clarity existing Federal
laws in this field, but the
measure died in the House.

termed these recent shocking
revelations:
Thousands Of dollars con-
tributed by a convicted con
man, Jake The Barber Factor

incredible sum of SIS million
spent by each of the two can
didates for Governor Of Cali
fornia in the 1862 election
according to filed reports; a
81, l,00O-a-plate off-year cam

Senator Proxmire said 1t
appears likely now that the 1864
presidential candidates may be
Democratic President Kennedy
and Republican Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller of New York.
If this happens. he continued,
ut will mark the first time in
American history that the only
choice available to the Ameri-
can electorate will be between

WoIton's Facade

Columbia's jacket blurb:
Two of the goth Century's
wittiest musical entertain
ments, is justified on the rec
ord of william Walton's
Facade and Jacques Ibert's
advertisement.
The Facade gets first-rate
treatment from the Philadel-
phia Orchestra, with the
poems OF Dame Edith Sitwell
recited by Vera zorina. This
is a good combination for
an abstract" exercise in
poetry set to music by the
bounciest kind.
Ibert's nonsense pokes fun,
at just about everything. and
makes for some of the bright
est light listening imaginable.

Tenor Arios

Nicolai Gedda's distin-
guished opera career has
ranged from Mozart to
Strauss, but withal. has been
French oriented. The Swed-
ish singer is presented by
Angel in a record called Great
Tenor Arias from Frenc h
Opera. 1t covers familiar Sc
lections from Massenet's
Werther and Manon, and less
familiar pieces. Included are
two arias from Berlioz' Ben
venuto Cellini, which Gedda
helped revive. There is some
thing from Lalo's lie Roi d'Ys,
Thomas Mignon, Gounod's
Mireille and Adams lie Pos
tillon de Longjumeau-in all,
a pleasing record by an in
telligent singer.
