1Opinion of the Court

OPINION OF THE COURT

Meyer, J.

The Federal Arbitration Act (9 USC §§ 1-14) requires an account executive whose contract of employment by a stock brokerage company provides for arbitration under the then prevailing constitution and rules of the New York Stock Exchange to arbitrate a claim for defamation, notwithstanding that the alleged defamatory statements were made after termination of the account executive’s employment. The order of the Appellate Division should, therefore, be reversed, with costs, and defendant’s motion to compel arbitration granted.
