EDGERTON, Circuit Judge
(dissenting).
Agents of the Narcotics Bureau procured the commission of the narcotics offenses of which the appellant has been convicted. This court has held that a conviction so obtained may be valid if it appears that the agents had a “reasonable suspicion” that the defendant was predisposed to commit the offenses. Childs v. United States, 105 U.S.App.D.C. 342, 343, 267 F.2d 619, 620. But in my opinion this does not appear in this case and the conviction should be reversed.
