Order


This matter is before the Court on the Petition of the United States for review of the Order, Judgment and Decree entered by the Referee in Bankruptcy in the above entitled proceedings on the twenty-third day of August, 1954.

From my study of the record and a consideration of the arguments of counsel and the briefs thereafter submitted at my request, I am satisfied that the disposition made by the Referee in the matters under review must be upheld.

Following the hearings before him, the Referee fully detailed the factual situation and the basis of his decision in an original and a supplemental opinion which appear in the record and which are reported at length beginning at page 50 in the April, 1955 issue of the Journal of the National Association of Referees in Bankruptcy, in view of which I deem it unnecessary to prepare a further opinion in the matter. Accordingly, it is

Ordered and adjudged that the Order, Judgment and Decree of the Referee in Bankruptcy under review be, and the same is hereby affirmed.
