Iowa Mutual Insurance Company, the compensation insurer of Sands Products Company, was made the defendant. This suit was consolidated for trial with another suit filed by petitioner against H. B.

The Lower Court rendered judgment in this matter in favor of the defendant and dismissed the petitioner’s suit. For the reasons assigned in the suit entitled Jackson v. Bruser, La.App., 96 So.2d 850, the decision of the Lower Court will be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
