_______________________:            

                                I.

     The Commission deems it appropriate and in the public
interest that cease-and-desist proceedings be instituted pursuant
to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act")
and Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange
Act") with respect to Norman Gelman ("Gelman").

                               II.

     In anticipation of the institution of these proceedings,
Gelman has submitted an Offer of Settlement ("Offer") which the
Commission has determined to accept.  Solely for the purpose of
these proceedings and any other proceedings brought by or on
behalf of the Commission or to which the Commission is a party,
and without admitting or denying the findings contained herein,
except as to the Commission's finding of jurisdiction, which he
admits, Gelman consents to the issuance of this Order Instituting
Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933
and Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making
Findings and Imposing Cease-and-Desist Order. 

     Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that proceedings pursuant
to Section 8A of the Securities Act and Section 21C of the
Exchange Act be, and they hereby are, instituted.

                               III.

     On the basis of this Order Instituting Proceedings Pursuant
==========================================START OF PAGE 2======

to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21C of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making Findings, and
Imposing Cease-and-Desist Order and the Offer submitted by
Gelman, the Commission finds that:
 
     A.   In or about September 1995, Axiom Security Solutions,
     Inc. ("Axiom") issued 2,500,000 shares of its common stock
     to York Investments, Ltd. ("York"), a Belize corporation, as
     compensation for consulting services;

     B.   On or about October 24, 1995, Axiom filed with the
     Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect
     to the 2,500,000 shares of its common stock issued to York. 
     The registration statement represented that proceeds of
     sales of the shares issued to York would be received by
     Axiom.  The registration statement also described the manner
     in which Axiom would use the proceeds from the sale of
     York's shares;

     C.   Gelman reviewed and signed the registration statement
     as the president of Axiom.  At the time he signed the
     registration statement Gelman knew that the proceeds of any
     stock sold by York would go to York rather than to Axiom.
  
     D.   By reason of the conduct described in paragraphs III.A.
     through III.C. above, Gelman caused Axiom to violate Section
     17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the
     Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.
       
                               IV.

     In view of the foregoing, it is in the public interest to
impose the following sanction specified in the Offer submitted by
Gelman.  Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Gelman cease and
desist from committing or causing such violation and any future
violation of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section
10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.
 
     The sanction ordered herein shall become effective
immediately.

     By the Commission.
