Opinion

No. 9940.

Argued May 2, 1949.

Decided May 5, 1949. Writ of Certiorari Granted June 27, 1949. See 69 S.Ct. 1531.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania; J. Cullen Ganey, Judge.

Jacob Kossman, Philadelphia, Pa. (David Berger, Philadelphia, Pa., on the brief), for appellant.

Harry Wolov, Philadelphia, Pa. (Gerald A. Gleeson, United States Attorney, Philadelphia, Pa., on the brief), for appellee.

Before MARIS, GOODRICH, and McLAUGHLIN, Circuit Judges.


The appellant was convicted by the district judge, sitting without a jury, on the charge of sending an obscene, lewd and lascivious letter to his wife through the mails. Appellant's argument has failed to convince us that his conviction was not fully justified by the evidence or that the trial judge erred in point of law.

The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
