BASTIAN, Senior Circuit Judge
(concurring in part and dissenting in part):
I agree with the majority holding that no error was committed by the District Judge in refusing to sever the several counts of the indictment.
I do dissent, however, from the remand to the District Court. My reading of the record convinces me that the District Judge properly found, after holding an adequate hearing, that the arrest of the appellant was valid and was not a manufactured arrest. I feel further that the police procedure was not improper and that the evidence should not be suppressed. There seems to me to be no justification for a remand in this case.
I would affirm the judgment of the District Court.
