1. “". . . no fixed rule with respect to [the applicability of the government's privilege to withhold] disclosure [of an informer's identity] is justifiable. The problem is one that calls for balancing the public interest in protecting the flow of information against the individual's right to prepare his defense. Whether a proper balance renders nondisclosure erroneous must depend on the particular circumstances of each case, taking into consideration the crime charged, the possible defenses, the possible significance of the informer's testimony, and other relevant factors." At 62, 77 S.Ct. at 628-629 .”

2. “"To meet the burden cast on it, the prosecution may justify the search of an automobile without a search warrant by establishing: (1) that there was prior reasonable cause for belief that the automobile contained articles which by law are subject to search and seizure, and (2) that the processing of a search warrant was impracticable because of imminence of escape or loss of evidence. Carroll v. United States , 267 U.S. 132 , 45 S.Ct. 280 , 69 L.Ed. 543 ."”
