Opinion

Per Curiam.

The petition for a writ of certiorari is granted. The order of May 6, 1966, denying the motion for a certificate of probable cause is reversed.

Mr. Justice Stewart concurs for the reasons stated in his separate memorandum in Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U. S. 643, 672. Mr. Justice Clark, Mr. Justice Harlan and Mr. Justice White dissent and would deny the petition for a writ of certiorari.
