Supreme Court Declares Conspiracy a Continuing Offense
The Supreme Court holds that conspiracy in restraint of trade is a continuing offense and not barred by the statute of limitations, forcing Sugar Trust officials and other magnates to stand trial. The ruling affects Packers, tobacco, oil, and electrical trusts, and enlarges the reach of antitrust prosecutions. Attorney General and US Attorney Wise vow to push trials promptly after final judgment.
