UNITED STATES.
No. 384.

Supreme Court of the United States

October Term, 1967.
December 11, 1967

Louis Bender, Lloyd A. Hale, New York City, of counsel, for petitioner.
Solicitor General Griswold, Assistant Attorney General Vinson, Ralph S.
Spritzer, Beatrice Rosenberg and Paul C. Summitt, for the United States.
On petition for writ of certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for
the Second Circuit.
PER CURIAM.

The petition for certiorari is granted.

The judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit is
vacated, and the case is remanded to the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York in order to give that court an opportunity to
consider the motion to substitute the Konkursamt Basel-Stadt (the Bankruptcy
Office of Basel, Switzerland) as party petitioner, and to reconsider that court's
former adjudication of contempt and the accompanying fine in light of the
original petitioner's death.

It is so ordered.
