Respectfully, EDWARD N. GADSBY, Ohairman. THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Washington, D.O. ill Harold C. Patterson 1897-1960 Harold C. Patterson was serving his second term as a member of the Securities and Exchange Commission at the time of his death on November 29, 1960. He brought to his high officesin the public service a broad experience and a vast fund of knowledge of the Nation's financial community. Able, forthright and just, he was ever devoted to the objectives for which the Commission was created by the Congress. These qualities made him a stalwart ad vocate of the cause of investor protection. His trenchant analysis of the many problems confronting the Com- mission and the wisdom which characterized his decisions earned the admiration and respect of its members, the staff and the public. His counsel will be sorely missed by those who must continue, as we know he would have desired, with the tasks that lie ahead. To each of us who had the good fortune to know him his passing leaves a deep personal void as well. Ever a staunch friend, he shared generously of his time, his talents, and his experience. We here record our profound sorrow at his passing and our deep sympathy for the members of his bereaved family. Edward N. Gadsby Earl F. Hastings Byron D. Woodside Daniel J.

Email: [email protected] JEL Classifications: G1, N0, N2 Keywords: Liquidity, NYSE, World War I 1 Abstract What Happened to Liquidity When World War I Shut the NYSE? The suspension of trading on the New York Stock Exchange for more than four months following the outbreak of World War I fostered a substitute market on New Street as a source of liquidity. The New Street market suffered from impaired price transparency because its transactions were not disseminated on the NYSE ticker and its quotations were blacklisted at the leading newspapers. This paper shows that despite the incomplete information flow and the somewhat wider bid-ask spreads compared with the New York Stock Exchange, New Street offered economically meaningful liquidity services. The interference with price transparency turned an individual stock’s reputation for liquidity into an important added variable in explaining the structure of bid-ask spreads on New Street. 2 I. Introduction It is not so surprising that the outbreak of World War I forced the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to close.

  • [List of Stocks Registered on National Securities Exchanges]
    F e d e r a l R e s e r v e Ba n k O F D A LLA S Dallas, Texas, July 29, 1953 To All Banking Institutions in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: On June 9, 1953 we sent you a copy of Amendment No. 12 to Regulation U which is to become effective August 1, 1953. A principal provision of the amendment is that a bank loan for the purpose of purchas­ ing or carrying a “redeemable security” issued by an “ open-end company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, whose assets customarily include stocks registered on a national securities exchange, shall be deemed under the regulation to be a loan for the purpose of purchasing or carrying a stock so registered. The amendment also provides that in determining whether or not a security is a “ redeemable security,” a bank may rely upon any reasonably current record of such securities that is published or specified in a publication of the Board of Governors. This, of course, adopts the same procedure as that specified in the regulation for determining whether or not a security is a “ stock registered on a national securities exchange,” and in the past the Board has published a “ List of Stocks Registered on National Securities Exchanges.” This list has now been revised and expanded to include also a list of “redeem­ able securities” of the type covered under the regulation by Amendment No. 12 thereto. A copy of this list dated June, 1953 and listing such stocks and securities as of March 31, 1953 is enclosed.

MtN~imxum tt The technique of acquiring control of a corporation by making a public offer to purchase a part of the corporation's stock at a fixed price-usually in cash and representing a premium above market-has been widely used in the United States in recent years. In 1965 there were twenty-nine cash tender offers to acquire control involving com- panies listed on the New York Stock Exchange and fifteen involving companies listed on the American Stock Exchange. In 1960 there were only eight such offers involving companies listed on both such exchanges.' The Investment Dealer's Digest reported thirty-two cash tender offers for the first six months of 1966.2 The increasing use of tender offers coincides with a period in which combinations of American businesses have been prevalent. These combinations are accomplished through merger, consolidation or acquisition of assets for stock or cash.3 Tender offers are another technique for creating * This article bears a date of November 26, 1966. t B.A. 1953, LL.B. 1958, Yale University.

  • Century Economy for Baltimore 4
    Banking for a Baltimore Undivided Confronting Race and Class to Increase Opportunity and Equity for People and Neighborhoods For too long, Baltimore’s people and communities have had little or no say in the direction of the government or how tax dollars are spent. They do not determine how their communities are developed, and so they have watched as government has gone into debt to fund the development of downtown areas - while neglecting the very real needs of neighborhoods throughout the rest of the city. The Baltimore uprising of 2015 brought long festering problems to the forefront and showed that Baltimore needs transformational change - not tinkering with the status quo. The investment strategies and policies for the past 60 years are no longer relevant or feasible. A Joshua Harris Administration is ready to enact enabling legislation to fund investment strategies that make sense in 21st century Baltimore. This plan, based upon successful urban policies from throughout the United States and the world, will empower the residents of Baltimore to decide the future direction of their city. I recognize the community economic challenges facing Baltimore will not be fixed by the next Mayor alone, but by a Mayor who authentically involves community in every strata of a community economic development vision. It will be fixed by the people, first at the neighborhood level and then as a united city, working together for a better future. As Mayor, we will work to ensure the full participation of our residents in creating a united 21st century city. The plan will shift power from City Hall, big developers and Wall Street to people, neighborhoods and communities - because the people who are most affected by Baltimore’s problems are the ones who have the solutions.
