MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
WILLIAM E. DOYLE, District Judge.

Moreover, the facts demonstrate exhaustion of state remedies whereby the matter is properly before us. We issued an Order to Show Cause on February 8, 1966, and held hearings on May 6 and June 3, 1966. At the latter hearing the defendant was present in Court and was afforded an opportunity to testify. The matter now stands submitted.
