Macon Evening News: Tuesday, April 28, 1936 ELEVEN APPEARS WINNER OF FIGHT Supreme Court Refuses to Hear Government's Side of Suspension Move WASHINGTON. April 28. (P)-The government appeared today to have lost its supreme court fight to bar Arthur W. Cutten, of Chicago, from grain market trading for two years. After hearing a justice department attorney contend the circuit court of appeals in Chicago erred in setting aside Cutten's suspension by the grain futures administration, Chief Justice Hughes told the Chicagoan' attorney yesterday that he need not reply.
Such instruction usually means the court has decided to rule against side which has been then refusing to sustain the suspension of Cutten on accusations of illegal manipulations a of the wheat market, the Chicago held the passage in the grain futures violating had could notmapelea ton acts the pastille arguing against this point, the government's attorney, Wendell Berge, was interrupted by Justice Sutherland. "You contend," said the justice, "that congress should have written into the statue the term 'had violated' instead of 'is violating'. Congress not having done so, you want the court to do so?" Arguing that the law contemplated a "reasonable" length of time to detect violations, Berge said two years would fall within this provision in complicated transactions. The commission, made up of Secretaries Roper and Wallace and Attorney General Cummings, charged Cutten tried to manipulate wheat prices in 1930 and 1931 by failing to report short holdings of millions of bushels.

(P)-Sellers again pounced on the stock market today, but leading issues met a little support after dropping one to two or more points. Heavy offerings around noon put the ticker tape several minutes behind for a while. Then buying appeared and the list stiffened. Earlier extreme losses were pared or replaced with small gains in many instances.
Improvement on the come-back was shown by N. Y. Central, Delaware and Hudson, Southern Pacific, North American, Allied Chemical, Chrysler, American Can, Texas Corporation, and American Smelting. Failure of the steels, coppers and many other equities to participate to any extent in the moderate recovery was a bit discouraging to the analyists. Nearing the fourth hour losers of as much as a point or more included U.
S. Steel, Bethlehem, National Steel, General Motors, Case, Kennecott, Anaconda, International Nickel, Western Union, Standard Oil of California, Deere and U. S. Industrial Alcohol. Foreign currencies were about even in terms of the dollar.
