PER CURIAM.

Difco Laboratories, Inc., 389 F.2d 663 (6th Cir. 1968) do not in the judgment of this court represent substantial evidence to support the National Labor Relations Board's findings of threats in violation of section 8(a) (1) of the National Labor Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 158(a) (1) (1964). See Suprenant Mfg. Co. v. N.L.R.B., 341 F.2d 756 (6th Cir. 1965).
