Washington April 14 administration claims of bean raids on the stock market were called purely ridiculous by Richard Whitney president of the New York Stock Exchange. He declined to submit last Friday's short selling data until next Friday and denied bear raids. Whitney blamed the public for 1928 price inflation while defending exchange rules and insisting he had full data on short positions. The Senate committee pressed for names of prominent dealers as Walcott and Brookhart questioned the rumor of a planned bear raid, with Whitney noting information came from Walcott and that many short positions had existed for months.
