PER CURIAM.


If by any chance the preliminary injunction restraining the foreclosure of the mortgage was not warranted by virtue of the government's asserted lien, it was certainly proper as in the nature of an attachment to secure the rights asserted elsewhere in the complaint.

The order of preliminary injunction is affirmed.
