Mabel D. GARDNER, Plaintiff-Appellant,v.SHEARSON, HAMMILL & COMPANY, Defendant-Appellee.
No. 30126 Summary Calendar.*
United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
October 9, 1970.
Rehearing Denied October 27, 1970.

Mabel D. Gardner, pro se.
Richard H. Wilson, W. B. Dickenson, Jr., Hill, Hill & Dickenson, Tampa, Fla., for defendant-appellee.
Before GEWIN, GOLDBERG and DYER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Claiming that she sustained losses in certain stock transactions due to defendants' misrepresentations, Mrs. Gardner sought recovery under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On undisputed facts the District Court found that, pursuant to an agreement, the parties had submitted "the identical alleged acts and transactions which are the basis for her claims for relief in the instant action" to arbitration under the New York Stock Exchange Rules. Accordingly, the Court granted defendants' motion for summary judgment. We affirm.


2
We agree with the Third Circuit that "under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the voluntary submission to arbitration of an existing controversy is a valid one and, absent fraud or a basic fault in the proceedings, * * * the proceeding is a valid one." Moran v. Paine, Webber, Jackson & Curtis, 3d Cir. 1968, 389 F.2d 242, 246.


3
Affirmed.
