Decided July 3, 1950

Mr. Hans A. Nathan, Washington, D. C., for appellant.

Mr. Richard M. Roberts, Asst. U. S. Atty, Washington, D. C., with whom Messrs. George Morris Fay, U. S. Atty, Harold H. Bacon and Joseph M. Howard, Asst. U. S. Attys, all of Washington, D. C., were on the brief, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.


We find no error in the record on this appeal. The credibility of the complaining witness' story of how appellant unlawfully came into possession of his automobile was a matter peculiarly within the province of the jury. Likewise the court's instructions were in all respects adequate for the purposes of this case.
