WIDENER, Circuit Judge,
concurring:
I concur in the opinion of the panel.
I concur in that opinion because I think it is of some consequence that there be an opinion of the court instead of merely majority and concurring opinions, and more especially because the parties have requested our review of the record.
I would add a word, however. Left to my own devices, I am of opinion that the action of the district court, in its examination and criticism in this case of the government’s handling of the similar but unrelated investigation of the capital gains tax legislation, was so far beyond its warrant that I would have vacated all of those findings for that reason without further consideration.
