Mutual Funds, Two Agencies Criticized In Report Washington-(1TD -A special committee of the Securities and Exchange Commission has criticized the operation of mutual funds and the pro cedures of two private agencies which regulate the stock market. In a report to Congress, the committee also said Thursday it was unable to "isolate and identify the cause" of the big break in market prices which started in May, 1962. The group, headed by Mil ton H. Cohen, a Chicago at torney, said in the last of three reports on the market that the break last year was brought on by "complex in teraction of causes and ef fects." It recommended that the SEC and private business work out a plan that might be invoked in time of crisis to keep disruption of the mar ket down to a minimum.

Makes Recommendations It recommended controlling these practices by eliminating or altering the so-called "front-end load" contract, the long-term installment agree ment under which most of the selling charge is due during the first few months of the contract. It also called for more com plete SEC prospectus require ments, and more emphasis on methods for preventing execu tives of various funds from making a personal profit be. cause of inside knowledge gained through business.

MEDFORD, the News by SEC which regulates stocks not listed with an exchange. The study said the NYSE had provided "vigorous lead ership and produced excellent results in many areas but that its record was still "an uneven one. Criticizes Setup It criticized the NYSE's governmental setup, stating that its policies appeared to be "disproportionately" influ enced by the floor profession als - those who buy and sell on the exchange floor. The study said these ex change members were not necessarily the most talented nor the most responsive to public needs. The study said the NASD, which regulates the over-the-counter sales, "has fallen short of its potential as a self-regulatory body."

A spokesman for the NYSE said: "Until the exchange has finished a careful review of the entire report, including the chapters just released, we feel it . . . would not be appro priate to make any comment." 773-3813 and Make Your Appointment!
