“ Instead, respondents 'executed proxies in their own names after the decree of this court was known to them,' and 'warned, in writing, the transfer agent of the corporation not to transfer the shares of stock.' In part, the order was based on the allegation that respondents 'sought and obtained from the District Court in Northern California an injunction against the Dollar interests, restraining them from attempting to secure compliance with the decree of this court.' 190 F.2d at page 374.

(4) It has been suggested that this Court delay the normal ending of the October Term, 1950, and hear argument within a matter of weeks. No motion for advancement has been filed. ”
