Most-quoted passages

““ * * * jje concedes that no authority in support of this contention could be found. It is safe to say that there is no such authority. See and compare: Ebeling v. Morgan, 237 U.S. 625 , 629-631, 35 S.Ct. 710 , 59 L.Ed. 1151 ; United States v. Daugherty, 269 U.S. 360 , 46 S.Ct. 156 , 70 L.Ed. 309 ; Blockburger v. United States, 284 U.S. 299 , 301, 305, 52 S.Ct. 180 , 76 L.Ed. 306 . The information charged five separate offenses and would have sustained an aggregate maximum sentence of twenty-five years.” (Emphasis supplied.)”
