Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
The court has heretofore put this case en banc on its own motion. On the facts made known to the Court the cause has become moot since the granting of rehearing en banc. Accordingly the appeal is dismissed and the panel decision, 1971, 446 F.2d 1066 is to have no precedential value.
Appeal dismissed.
