PER CURIAM:

1
Although the issue is close, we hold that the record before us presents a substantial federal question of constitutional stature.  Consequently, the judgment of the lower court, 308 F.Supp. 832, is set aside and the cause remanded with instructions to convene a three-judge Court pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2281.

2
We express no opinion as to the ultimate resolution of the constitutional issues.

 The Honorable Ray McNichols, United States District Judge for the District of Idaho, sitting by designation
