MONEY CLEARANCE AND SETTLEMENT 395
a special form (Figure 45) which states the number, name,
price, and value of the shares to be delivered, and agree that
this delivery shall be made by transfer subject to the approval
of the Stock Clearing Corporation, and that upon this approval
the receiving member will immediately hand to the Corpora-
tion a certified check to its order for the value of the stock
placed in transfer. By rule of the Stock Clearing Corpora-
tion (Rule 8A), the Corporation must be notified by 10 A. M.
if the delivery is to be made through the Central Delivery De-
partment. In practice, however, deliveries by transfer through
the Stock Clearing Corporation are very rarely made, since
members prefer to “fail to deliver” and settle “ex-Clearing
House ”’
Actual Credits and Debits from Security Loans.—The
clearance of security loans by the Stock Clearing Corporation
was described as a separate process in Chapter XIII. In actual
fact, however, debits and credits on a clearing member’s ac-
count arising from such loans are handled together with those
arising from security deliveries and also other operations.
It was pointed out'® that clearing members may obtain credits
on their Day Branch accounts by calling loans which they
have made as lenders or contracting new loans as borrow-
ers, and debits on their Day Branch accounts by making new
loans as lenders or paying off old loans as borrowers. Before
any such credits or debits can be established for their account
at the Stock Clearing Corporation, however, the latter must
be specifically ordered to do so on the appropriate forms by
the clearing members in question. Chapter XIII has already
described" how credits are established at the Stock Clearing
Corporation for lending firms calling loans by the “pay-off
loan credit tickets” (Figure 41a), and for borrowing firms
contracting new loans by the “new loan credit tickets” (Figure
42a) or by the “new loan agreements” (Figure 40); in the
12 See Chapter XIII, p. 361.
