[MAJORITY — PER CURIAM.]
PER CURIAM.
This is a proceeding instituted by the United States to secure the deportation of a Chinese person on the ground that he was unlawfully within the United States. The case was made to turn on the issue of fact whether he was born in this country. The
commissioner and District Judge both found this issue against him. This was not only presumptively correct, but an examination of the record convinces us that it was so in fact.
The judgment is affirmed.
