PER CURIAM.
An examination of the briefs of the parties and the appendix leads us to the conclusion that the decision of the court below was correct. See 58 F.Supp. 884. Much of the testimony was directly in conflict. Our conclusions as to the credibility of the witnesses and the interpretation to be put upon the evidence coincide in all substantial particulars with those expressed by the District Court. Accordingly, the decree appealed from is affirmed.
