The opinion

SCHNACKENBERG, Circuit Judge,

(concurring).

The failure of the trial judge to require the production by the government of the memoranda prepared by certain government witnesses presents a difficult question on this appeal. However, I am not convinced that Judge Steckler’s holding on that subject is wrong.

The language in the cases which he cites lends considerable support to his conclusion.
