"It  looks  like  historically
there  was  a  problem  but
there's  no  problem  now."  Zarb
said.  'Our  policy  here  is  that
whenever  a  willful  violation  is
detected  by  our  people,  we  im-
mediately hand  it  over  to  the
Justice  Department.  Wherever
there  are  criminal  violations,  I>
want  them  prosecuted  to  the
fullest."
