IDS opposes NYSE public ownership plan for brokerages
Mutual funds giant IDS filed a bristling brief with the SEC opposing the New York Stock Exchange public ownership proposals. IDS argues the plan would be exclusionary and anti competitive, seeks full hearings, and claims antitrust risks including treble damages. IDS, managing $6.2 billion in mutual funds and $1.5 billion in other assets, says membership bars could cost millions in savings on commissions and fund fees.

Social Security Q&A on Benefits and Deadlines
A Troy reader asks why part time work yields a small Social Security payout and why higher benefits aren’t issued. Answer explains benefits depend on earnings, not quarters alone, and that part time work lowers the amount. Another reader learns automatic refiguring occurs yearly and full time work can raise future payments. A Grafton inquiry notes burial benefit claims must be filed within two years of death, by 2/18/70.
