Price Required
By New Ruling
New York - IUPI) - Wall
Strecters today nominated
the Federal Reserve Board
slash in margin requirements
for buying stock as about the
best news of 1D62, and found
other reason for joy in what
the FRB said while taking
action.
After the close of the Ea.it
ern exchanges Monday, the
board at Washington an
nounced that effective today
persons using credit to make
an Initial purchase of stocks
or a short sale would have to
post only 30 per cent of the
price in cash instead of the
70 per cent which has been,
the case since July 28, 1060.
Most Stocks Climb
Traders across the nation
expected effect of the action
to follow the pattern shown
on the Pacific Coast Stock
Exchange immediately after
the announcement. The coast s
big securities market was still
open when the word came;
trading speeded Immediately
and most stocks climbed $2
to $2.30, almost as rapidly.
In simple terms, what the
board action meant was this:
Assuming that your credit
was good and you wanted to
buy a share of stock without
paying the full price of it, you
today could put up $50 where
Monday you would have had
to post $70. This is your mar
gin. There are requirements
to maintain the margin, once
you have it, and these were
not affected by Monday's
board action.
Where $350 would have al
lowed you to buy five shares
of a $100 value stock Mon
day, today it would allow you
to get seven shares.'
Hail Board's Action .
Officials of the New York
Stock Exchange and the
American Stock Exchange
were quick to hail the board's
action, and so were represen
tatives of the brokerage
houses.
Martin Gilbert, Van Al
styne, Noel & Co., said it was
the "kind of news Wall Street
has been waiting for." One
reason was, he said, that the
investor could see Washing
ton was interested in doing
something to help the market.
He called it "one of the most
helpful market developments
to come our way in some
time."
Gerald M. Loeb, a partner
In E. F. Hutton & Co., said it
was both "timely and con
structive'' and should have a
"beneficial" effect on the
market.

Test Blast in Sky Hailed
In Europe, Rapped in Japan
London-UIPIi-America's high
altitude nuclear test in the
Pacific received editorial
backing in Western Europe
today, but was denounced in
Japan as a "barbaric act."
Moscow Radio said "all
mankind" protested the spec
tacular blast, which Illumi
nated the skies for thousands
of miles across the Pacific
Monday.
But Communist China was
strangely silent. Peiping Ra
dio had not carried a word
about the test 24 hours after
the explosion.
The London Daily Mail de
clared editorially that "na
tional security . . . com
pelled" the United States to
go through with the test. The
German newspaper Frank
furter Allgemeine said the
Johnston Island test shot was
a "forced countermeasure" to
Soviet nuclear tests.
'Hell Bomb In Paradise'
In Japan, the only nation
to suffer the effects of a nu
clear attack, Sankei Shimhun
said in a headline, "Hell
Bomb Rages in Paradise "
"We protest many times
against the injustice of the
United States," the news
paper said. It called the test
an "evil deed."
"It was a barbaric act
against mankind." said Dr.
Masatsuka Miyaji, chief of
the Tokyo Astronomical Ob
servatory ". . . The test was
nothing but a violent act ex
panding the nuclear arms
race into space."

Reporting on his state visit

he said he and De Gnulle

test was an act of "wanton
recklessness" by the United

Duncan Encourages
More Participation
Cave Junction - "The in
creasing complexities of mod
ern living; of governmental
functions and influences de
mands the greatest possible
participation at all levels of
government by every citizen,"
Robert Duncan, candidate for
Congress from the Fourth dis
trict, told the Illinois Valley
Democratic club Monday.
"If we are to pass on to our
children and grandchildren
the fruits of America's great
experiment in self govern
ment, everyone must do his
part. It is almost inconceiva
ble that some should consider
service on school boards, city
councils, public committees;
membership in political clubs,
and even voting as a burden
some chore, when most of the
people of the world do not
have the right to do so,"
Duncan said.
"Perhaps the time has come
when we should strike the
expression of 'right and privi
lege to register and vote,' and
substitute therefore, 'the duty
and obligation to vote.' Only
a fully informed and partici
pating general public can pre
serve our way of life, and pro
vide hope for our neighbors
who live in slavery," Dun
can concluded.
