Such changes are proposed in bills pending in both the House and Senate. "The commission at this time does not have all the tools necessary for dealing with periods of market turbulence," Breeden told the telecommunications and finance subcommittee chaired by Rep. Edward Markey, Another witness, Edward I. O'Brien, president of the Securities Industry Association, a trade group, said he opposed the large trade and financial soundness changes, saying they were too vague and needed more study. SEC Chairman Richard C. Bree-de- n told a House panel Wednesday that while his agency doesn't need or want the power to halt trading during market emergencies, other reforms are needed. Testimony on the market gyrations and what they mean for the U.S. economy continues today when Treasury Secretary Nicholas F. Brady, who headed an investigation into the 1987 crash, appears before the Senate Banking Committee. Breeden, appearing before a subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said he sup O'Brien and George Bissell, chairman of the market reform task force of the Investment Company Institute, a mutual fund trade group, supported rules that would give the SEC power to halt trading for up to 24 hours during market emergencies. But Breeden said safety mechatemnisms called circuit-breakeporary automatic trading halts in times of market volatility have eliminated much of the need for officials to stop trading. Markey suggested halting only rs program trading, the computer-drive- n sale of vast blocks of stocks by large, institutional investors, which many cite as a contributing factor in the 1987 market crash. Breeden said he would consider working with the subcommittee if new methods were found to be needed, but for now he thought halts were less likely to cause uncertainty among traders. It was the first public appearance head since the Oct; 13 market slide. The Dow Jones average or. 30 industrials, a key market indicator; plunged 190.58 points Friday, Oct. 13, then rebounded to close 88.12 points higher the next Monday. The market's roller-coastgyrations prompted concern about crash like the drop ; in October 1987. But after a week of gentler undulations, the Dow bounced up and down Tuesday, finishing the day with a slight decline of 3.69 points by the new SEC er an-oth- er 508-poi- nt at 2,659.22.
