Investors, 343 U. S. 982; Maryland v. Baltimore Radio Show, Inc., 338 U. S. 912; Darr v. Burford, 339 U. S. 200, 227; Agoston v. Pennsylvania, 340 U. S. 844; Bondholders, Inc. v. Powell, 342 U. S. 921; Rosenberg v. United States, 344 U. S. 889, 345 U. S. 965. Partial disclosure of votes on successive stages of a certiorari proceeding does not present an accurate picture of what took place. Mr. Justice Black is of the opinion the petition for rehearing should be granted.
