Per Curiam.

The motion of respondent Frank Bisignano for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is granted. The petition for a writ of certiorari is also granted and the judgment is vacated. The case is remanded to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey for further proceedings in light of Johnson v. New Jersey, ante, p. 719.

Mr. Justice Douglas dissents for the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion in Johnson v. New Jersey, ante, at 736.
