American Stock Exchange. Is Facing Abuses Charge |

WASHINGTON (AP) ’— The American Stock Exchange was

accused by federal investigators |Friday of permitting “manifold and prolonged abuses” of laws

' Jt -said the deminant group has included Joséph F. Reilly, who currently heads the ex- change as president pro tem.
