and should show that the instruction of this court is desired fn the particular case as to their proper decision.

A statement that one circuit court of appeals has arrived at a different conclusion from another circuit court of appeals on a question or proposition is not equivalent to the expression of a desire for instruction as to the proper decision of a specific question, requiring determination in the proper disposition of the particular case.

The fact that a circuit court of appeals for one circuit has rendered a different judgment from that of the circuit court of appeals for another circuit under the same conditions may furnish ground for a certiorari on proper application.

The case is stated in the opinion.
