On July 13, 1965, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York enjoined interférence with an élection of members of the New York Législature to be held on November 2,1965, based on “the scheme set forth” in the New York Laws of 1964, c. 976. Insofar as the decision of the Court of Appeals has been superseded by the order of the District Court, the appeal is dismissed. In ail other respects, the appeal is dismissed for want of a substantial fédéral question.
Mr. Justice Fortas took no part in the considération or decision of this case.
