To that end we have concluded that

pleased 90 hear and consider any ar
that may then be submitted
either orally or written.
The Chancellor and law judges
would much prefer TO determine the
question ina regular judicial proceed
ing, but they realize that such a pro-
ceeding would involve more delay than
would be justified, in view of the neces-
sity for a reasonably early decision.
The Importance OF the question does, |
however, require careful consideration, |
