1Opinion of the Court
McLaughlin, chief judge.
1. The Motion to Dismiss
This motion is based upon failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted under Rule 8, Fed.Rules Civ.Proc., 28 U.S.C.A. Rules 8provides, in part:
“A pleading which sets forth a claim for relief * * * shall contain (1) a short and plain statement of the grounds upon which the court’s jurisdiction depends, * * * (2) a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief, and (3) a demand for judgment ‡ >j< f9
This court thinks that the requirements of Rule 8 are not met by a mere “notice of disaffection”…
