 the Exchange of 10% on the contract price at the time of 

 purchase, or sale, and a further margin from time to time 

 to the extent of any variation in the market value from the

 deposited before 12 M. of the following day; in case of failure 

 to deposit as above, the buyer or seller shall have the right

 as not being up to sample. If a settlement cannot be agreed 

 on, the case shall be referred to the Trade Committee having 

 charge of the class of goods in question, who shall decide the 

 matter, and in the event of a decision against either buyer 

 or seller, the same penalties shall accrue as the Rules under 

 the Call provide for the kind of goods dealt in. The party 

 against whom the decision is given shall pay to each com- 

 mitteeman serving $2 for each case.
