1Opinion of the Court
WYATT, District Judge.
This motion is for a preliminary injunction in an action for unfair competition.
Jurisdiction is based on Sections 39 and 43 (a) of the Lanham Trade-Mark Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1121, 1125(a) and is upheld, absent diversity of citizenship, by L’Aiglon Apparel, Inc. v. Lana Lobell, Inc., 214 F.2d 649 (3d Cir. 1954). There has been no similar decision by our Court of Appeals but a number of District Court decisions in this Circuit have found jurisdiction. These decisions are collected in American Rolex Watch Corp. v. Jack Laufer & Jan Voort, Inc., 176 F.Supp. 858 (E.D.N.Y.1959).
