THE CLINTON CHRONICLE «, i»s» THIS WEEK IN WASHINGTON By Clinton Davidson CRASH PROTFCTION Some State Department officials ere think Russia’s toutfh attitude at »e Geneva conference is based on »e long-time Soviet expectation that le U. S eventually uRl be destroy- d as a result of a collapse of our conomy. The Kremlin is said to believe that ueh an economic crash would'be allowed by the Communists and their fellow travelers taking ever the government. Russia Mill doesn’t believe America’! phenomenal pros perity can last Russia's prediction of a financial catastrophe has failed to materialize but the Reds are right on one thing— America can be destroyed by finan- I cial failure Just as completely as by bombs, planes and missiles. It is just as important that ve | maintain a sound and expanding fi nancial structure as it is that we have a strong national defense. Sen ator Warren Magnuson. with whom we discussed this, stressed that “full employment and prosperity cannot exist vitheut a sound and expanding financial system." THE IMPORTANCE OF SEC Our economy is baaed on the pri vate enterprise capitalistic system. Thai means, simply, the use of mon ey to expand job opportunities for more iwople In some industries £50,000 must be invested in plants and equipment for each employee. The Securities and Exchange Com mission is the government agency that supervises and regulates the machinery which provides our com merce and industry with capital. When a company decides Ip expand, build additional plants and employ it often the need ed captial by aeUlng Its aharee or Ka bonds to the public This moat be done under regulations of the SEC One writer has called the SEC wr Civt YOU FAST “CIRCLE SERVICE" when you drive in for gasoline. Wc circle the car a# we fill your tank, cleaning windows, checking tires, cleaning headlights, cheeking radiat< r. battery, oil. etc. That’s part of the erfr* measure of service we re trained to give you And for top perfonnaaes you get national!) preferred Texaco quality products. Const in! H. D. Payne & Co, < I IN TUN * C. ItewlrtRwIos I M€»M ftlt The Investor’s Watchdog,” and an other '’Uncle Sam's financial police force” Our financial operations have had an unprecedented growth for several years and it needs a growing SEC staff just as any rap idly expanding community must in crease its police force Rep Albert Thomas, chairman of the House Appropriations sub-com mittee for independent agencies, of which SEC is one. told us he be lieves “it is essential that the SEC be adequately staffed ... to provide the protection to which American investors are entitled' 'and to assist in obtaining the capital it must have in order to operate with maximum efficiency. “The SEC,” Thomas said, ”is an indispensable agency operating in ihe public interest. I have a very high regard for the officials of SEC. I believe we have provided funds for an adequate staff.’ EXPANDING NEED As an example of the expanding need for capital in our growing econ omy. the registration of securities sold to raise capital in the year end ed June 30, 1958, totaled 908, but during the year ended June 30, 1959, the total reached 1,226. Also, the reg istration of new investment compan ies increased from 453 in the 1958 pe riod to 512 in the past fiscal year. The investments of these companies have increased from $2 billion in 1940 to more than $20 billion today. One of the most important ac tivities of the SEC is that of pre venting fraud artists, “con men,” shysters and fast-talking swindlers from perverting the honorable bus iness of securities selling. This, alone, will require a substantial in crease in its staff. As an example of the increasing work load carried by the SEC staff, in protecitng the public from swind lers, the SEC referred for criminal action in the pa*t fiscal year almost three times as many cases as in the previous year •To preserve and protect our marvelous financial ayatem.’* Sen a lor Magnus— said “the SEC staff m—l be uarruaard All of — dooiro to keep rap— i deuu. but *» ran am aflo* to M ttea t or babble uur rbMf “ rj a,g,—l tbr kind «# a «raab Rmtes la ‘ FINAL SETTLEMENT Take notice teat on the Mh day September 1, UK.
