VOGEL, Circuit Judge.
The United States brought this action under § 303 of the Packers and Stockyards Act, 42 Stat. 159, as amended, 7 U.S.C.A. § 181 et seq., to recover civil penalties because of defendants-appellees’ operations as a market agency without registration under the Act. The case was submitted to the District Court on a stipulation of facts. The District Court granted summary judgment to the defendants, holding that the defendants’ failure to furnish the bond required by the Act could not form a basis for the administrative refusal to accept defendants’ registration.
