OPINION
PER CURIAM:
We have considered the record and the briefs in these cases and the motion of the appellants, Davis and Ruffin, to decide these cases on the briefs without oral argument.
We grant the motion to decide the cases on the briefs.
We are of opinion that no violation of the statutes involved has been shown, if, indeed, the plaintiffs are within the protection of the applicable statutes. We are thus of opinion that the district court has not been shown to have abused its discretion in denying preliminary injunctive relief.
The orders of the district court appealed from are accordingly
AFFIRMED.
