MILLER, Circuit Judge
(dissenting).
If this appeal involved only the review of a final order of deportation, I would agree with the ruling of the majority of the Court. Shaughnessy v. Pedreiro, 349 U.S. 48, 75 S.Ct. 591, 99 L.Ed. 868.
Appellant, however, also challenges the ruling of the Attorney General denying his application for a stay of deportation on the ground that he would be subject to physical persecution if deported to Greece, under the provisions of Section 1253(h), Title 8, U.S.C.A. The relief sought seeks affirmative action by the Attorney General contrary to his present ruling. Under these circumstances, I think the Attorney General is an indispensable party to the action and that the complaint should be dismissed for that reason. Williams v. Fanning, 332 U.S. 490, 493, 68 S.Ct. 188, 92 L.Ed. 95; De Pinho Vaz v. Shaughnessy, D.C., 112 F.Supp. 778, affirmed 2 Cir., 208 F.2d 70; Ceballos v. Shaughnessy, 2 Cir., 229 F.2d 592.
