The opinion

JOHN R. BROWN, Chief Judge

(dissenting in part):

I concur fully in the decision of the Court and the opinion except as to the limited holding that ship repair work of the kind revealed in this record can qualify as a “retail or service establishment.” Such maintenance and repair activities bear no resemblance to the retail operation Congress had in mind. Although now bound by it I continue to disagree with Rachal v. Allen, 5 Cir., 1963, 321 F.2d 449 , and 5 Cir., 1967, 376 F.2d 999 , but in any event I do not think that case either warrants or requires the holding here. As to this limited holding I respectfully dissent.
