The opinion

PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge

(dissenting).

I would affirm the order of the District Court dismissing this action for lack of jurisdiction. I do not believe this type of case was contemplated by the Congress as coming within the scope of 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983 , 1985(3). Flemming v. Adams, 253 F.Supp. 549 (D.Colo.), affirmed 377 F.2d 975 (10th Cir.), cert, denied, 389 *37 U.S. 898 , 88 S.Ct. 219 , 19 L.Ed.2d 216 ; Hopkins v. Wasson, 227 F.Supp. 278 (E. D.Tenn.), affirmed, 329 F.2d 67 (6th Cir.), cert, denied, 379 U.S. 854 , 85 S. Ct. 102 , 13 L.Ed.2d 57 .
