RIVES, Circuit Judge
(concurring in the result).
I concur in the result because of the sentence reading: “The denial of relief and reasons given were undeniably correct at the time the above order was entered.” To me that sentence seems an •unnecessary criticism of the Supreme Court decisions in Townsend v. Sain, 1963, 372 U.S. 293, 83 S.Ct. 745, 9 L.Ed. 2d 770, and Sanders v. United States, 1963, 373 U.S. 1, 83 S.Ct. 1068, 10 L.Ed.2d 148. I feel very strongly that this Court should not lend itself to the current, almost hysterical, movement on the part of some members of the Bar to cast ■discredit upon opinions and decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States. I, therefore, concur in the result.
