ALBERT V. BRYAN, Senior Circuit
Judge (dissenting):
Not in the slightest unappreciative of the majority’s thoughtful penetration into the entirety of this case and of its careful positing of available separable issues, together with their distinctive adaptabilities, my difference with the opinion rests upon its own faithful recognition of both the force of the District Court’s fact findings in themselves, F.R.Civ.P. 52, and the force of that Court’s discretionary judgment upon them. In re Cessna Aircraft Distributorship Antitrust Litigation, 518 F.2d 213, 215 (8 Cir.), cert. denied, 423 U.S. 947, 96 S.Ct. 363, 46 L.Ed.2d 282 (1975); City of New York v. International Pipe & Ceramics Corp., 410 F.2d 295, 298 (2 Cir. 1969).
With its factual recital unquestioned, for me the District Judge’s decision is not enfeebled by an abuse of discretion. I track and stand on his comprehensive and closely scanned findings of fact and conclusions of law, q. v., and so I would affirm.
