RIVES, Circuit Júdge
(dissenting):
For the reasons stated in my dissent in the companion case, McGrew et al. v. City of Jackson, Mississippi, et al., S.D. Miss.1969, 307 F.Supp. 754 and also in Entertainment Ventures v. Brewer et al., M.D.Ala.1969, 306 F.Supp. 802, I think that relief should be granted the plaintiffs both because the seizure of the film violated their First Amendment *539rights, and because the statute in question, Section 2286, Mississippi Code Annotated, Recompiled, on its face and as applied violates the First Amendment. I therefore respectfully dissent.
