The opinion

BAZELON, Chief Judge

(concurring).

I concur in Judge FAHY’S opinion and would only emphasize that equal protection requires a statutory classification to be reasonably related to a “proper governmental objective,” Bolling v. Sharpe, 347 U.S. 497 , 74 S.Ct. 693 , 98 L.Ed. 884 (1954), and that to deter indigents from settling in the District of Columbia is not such an objective, Edwards v. People of State of California, 314 U.S. 160 , 62 S.Ct. 164 , 86 L.Ed. 119 (1941).
