UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Wilhelm SCHEFOLD, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 311.
    Circuit Court of Appeals, Second Circuit.
    April 27, 1945.
    Elbridge E. Gerry, of New York City, for defendant-appellant.
    Robert M. Hitchcock, Sp. Asst, to Atty. Gen. (T. Vincent Quinn, U. S. Atty., of Brooklyn, N.Y., on the brief), for plaintiffappellee.
    Before SWAN, AUGUSTUS N. HAND, and CLARK, Circuit Judges.
   CLARK, Circuit Judge.

The only issue on this appeal is the applicability of 18 U.S.C.A. § 80 to a false denial of Nazi Party membership upon an application for a certificate of identification as an alien enemy — a question we have just considered in United States v. Heine, 2 Cir., 149 F.2d 485, and United States v. Barra, 2 Cir., 149 F.2d 489, decided herewith. For the reasons there stated, we hold the statute applicable.

Affirmed.
