PER CURIAM.

This appeal is from the denial of a preliminary injunction to prevent the termination of general assistance grants1 to plaintiffs Leon White and Elester Walker and to require defendants to provide general assistance to plaintiff Beatrice Silagy. The actions of the defendants in administering township general assistance grants are alleged to violate plaintiffs' procedural due process rights under the Fourteenth Amendment.
