Dissenting Opinion

Mr. Justice White,

dissenting.

I would grant certiorari in No. 937 and set the case for oral argument. The issues are of general importance, and the judgment of the Court of Appeals ordering cancellation of petitioner’s stock option has sufficient finality to warrant review now rather than after further proceedings in the District Court.

Opinion of the Court

C. A. 2d Cir. Certiorari denied.
