The two Acts which changed completely the complexion of the securities business were: The Securities Act of 1933 as Amended in 1934 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The scope of the work is divided into three chapters: Chapter One, gives a brief resume of the decade prior to the enactment of the two Acts discussed; Chapter Two, discusses The Securities Exchange Act of 1934; Chapter Three is a review of The Securities Act of 1933 as Amended in 1934. The procedure used in the discussion of these Acts is in the form of a historical sketch of conditions and events leading up to their enactment, a brief summary of each Act, favorable and unfavorable discussions of the Acts, and conclusions.5 unnumbered pages, 48 pages, 2 unnumbered leavesapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightLD5655.V855 1935.O247LegislationSecuritiesThesis
