AIM A BLOW At SCALPERS
THE SUPREME COURT DECLARES
THAT PRACTICE is WRONG.
Relief Can Be Granted Only in Individ-
uaI Cases, However-Decision 10
Called Unsatisfactory.

Washington, Dec 3.-The supreme
court of the United States Monday de-
cided the case of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad company VS.. Mar
Gus X. Bitterman and others, involving
the right of the defendants to engage
in scalping the tickets of the railroad
company, in favor Of the company, the
decision being handed down by JUS
tice White.
The suit was originally instituted by
the railroad company in the United
States circuit court for the Eastern
district Of Louisiana, which was asked
to enjoin Bitterman and other scalpers
from dealing in nonnegotiable reduced
fare Louisville & Nashville tickets.
That court held the practice to be
wrong but decided that relief could
only be granted in individual cases,
thus requiring separate action for
every offense committed.
Both parties to the controversy
found the decision unsatisfactory, and
both appealed to the circuit court of
appeals for the Fifth circuit. The deci-
sion of that tribunal was favorable to
the railroad company, the court hold
ing that the wrongdoing was Of a con-
tinuing nature and granting a perma-
nent Injunction.
The scalpeIs brought the case to
the federal supreme court with the
result that they failed to secure relief
there and succeeded only in getting
the sweeping action of the court of
appeals confirmed.

court of the United States Monday de-

in favor Of the coal companies.
