Before CLARK, PROCTOR and BAZELON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


The order of the National Labor Relations Board is set aside and, as a consequence, the Board's request for enforcement thereof is denied. National Labor Relations Board v. Highland Park Mfg. Co., 341 U.S. 322, 71 S. Ct. 758. To the extent that our decision in West Texas Utilities Co. v. National Labor Relations Board, 1950, 87 U.S.App.D.C. 179, 184 F.2d 233, certiorari denied 341 U.S. 939, 71 S. Ct. 999, runs counter to the decision of the Supreme Court in Highland Park, we consider it overruled. The alternative ground for decision, which existed in West Texas, is not present here.

Enforcement denied.
