Despite a reduction in ordinary

of the previous fiscal year, the

Emergency expenditures of

During the month, some of the

Minimum Margins Fixed by

Lend Money Except to ,
Banks, new Ruling
NEW YORK, Aug. 2 f AP)
The governors of the New York
stock exchange acted today to
check rabid- - speculation by pre
serving minimum margins, re
quiring weekly reports from mem
bers on pool, -syndicate and joint
account operations and on options
and forbidding members to lend
money to non-banking firms and
individuals.
The new rules were promul
gated as permanent additions and
amendments to the by-laws. They
are designed to tighten drastical
ly the curb on speculation and to
restrict the opening of weak spec
ulative accounts such as are gen
erally credited In Wall street with
having undermined the recent ad
vancing markets-
The regulations specify that all
brokerage accounts of $5,000 or
less shall have a minimum margin
of 50 per cent and the margin on
larger accounts shall be at least
30 per cent,
Heretofore the members have
established their own marginal
requirements. They have been as
low as 20 per cent and recently
were marked up to an average of
35 Der cent and to 50 and 60
cent on the highly speculative
wet stocks." Prior to the recent
decline margins In certain
ular Issues which had boomed
ranged around 50 per cent.
The new rules also require a I
minimum margin or ten points
for all short accounts. For lone
accounts in United States govern-
ment-securities a margin of at
margin of at
least five per cent Is required.
