(June 7, 1938.)
Eighth Avenue Coach Corporation, Appellant, v. The City of New York, Fiorello H. LaGuardia, Mayor of the City of New York, and Others, Constituting the Board of Estimate of the City of New York, and Lewis J. Valentine, Police Commissioner of the City of New York, Respondents.

We believe that the ends of justice will be best served if the decision of the novel and important questions of law involved in this action be deferred until the essential facts are found after a trial. There is nothing in the record to show that any emergency exists requiring the immediate regulation of traffic on the avenues involved by making them one way streets forthwith.

An injunction pendente lite will be granted, and the trial of the action set down for June 13, 1938.
