in individual securities under

Previous committee proposals,
if put into effect, would help
the exchange function properly
during periods of stress. These
include capital requirements
for specialists, basic changes in
odd-lot selling, more controls
over short selling and the
elimination of floor trading by
members on their own account.
The committee said its COM
ments on mutual funds should
not be regarded as a Judgment
of the financial soundness of
the companies.
Many mutual fund statesmen
have a sales pitch that is high
ly emotional and dramatic in
tone, playing on such factors
as fear, pride and patriotism.
The investment advisers and
principal underwriters en-
ployed by mutual funds benefit
more than the funds themselves
from the brokerage generated
by the funds.
The brokerage from a given
mutual funds transaction often
is steered to brokers who sell
most of the funds shares to
the public. The report said this
probably would be corrected by
previously proposed changes in
