Opinion

Joe VINT, Plaintiff in Error, v. UNITED STATES, Defendant in Error. (Circuit Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit. November 16, 1926.) No. 2539. In Error to the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of West Virginia, at Charleston; George W. MeClintic, Judge. A. M. Belcher, of Charleston, W. Va., and Frank Hill, of Marlinton, W. Va., for plaintiff in error. Elliott Northcott, U. S. Atty., of Huntington, W. Va. (B. J Pettigrew, Asst. U. S. Atty., of Charleston, W. Va., on the brief), for the United States. Before WADDILL, ROSE, and PARKER, Circuit Judges. [MAJORITY — PER CURIAM.] PER CURIAM. This is a prosecution for violation of section 3 of title 2 of the National Prohibition Act (Comp. St. § 10138%aa), in that the defendant had in his possession intoxicating liquors contrary to law, and for having been previously convicted on two separate occasions of similar offenses. We have given careful consideration to the assignments of error alleged, and find the action of the District Court free from objection, and the same is accordingly affirmed. Affirmed.
