Regulation A notification, filed Sept. 22, 1953,
-imposed the public offering of 190,000 shares of its 10c par common
rstock at $1 per share.
The suspension thereof was based upon the
failure of the company to file reports of stock sales, as required.
Subsequently, American Mining filed reports of sales; and it also
TTithdrew the unsold portion (116,766 shares) of the securities the subfeet of the original offering.
Accordingly, since the basis for the sus¬
pension no longer exists, the Commission concluded that it was appro¬

We think it clear that provisions such as these
implement the objective of the Acts designed by the Congress for the
protection of investors.
They are comparable for example to Section
15 (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 203 (d) of
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 which require this Commission,
if we find it to be in the public interest, to deny or revoke registrations
as a broker-dealer and as
an investment adviser,
respectively, because
of a conviction within the past ten years of a felony or misdemeanor
or an injunction in connection with the purchase or sale of a security."
Accordingly, the Commission concluded that "no Regulation A ex¬
