John M. BURCH, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF MACHINISTS AND AEROSPACE WORKERS, AFL-CIO, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 71-1886
    Summary Calendar.
    
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Dec. 10, 1971.
    
      Before WISDOM, COLEMAN, and SIMPSON, Circuit Judges.
    
      
       Rule 18, 5 Cir.; see Isbell Enterprises, Inc. v. Citizens Casualty Company of New York et al, 5 Cir. 1970, 431 F.2d 409, Part I.
    
   PER CURIAM:

The judgment of the district court, 337 F.Supp. 303 is affirmed. See Local Rule 21. That court’s finding that the termination of Burch’s membership was arbitrary and discriminatory is not clearly erroneous. Moreover, the district court properly construed the “appropriate relief” provision of the Landrum-Griffin Act to permit the award of attorney’s fees in this case. 29 U.S.C. § 412; Gartner v. Soloner, 3 Cir. 1967, 384 F.2d 348, cert, den’d 390 U.S. 1040, 88 S.Ct. 1633, 20 L.Ed.2d 302. 
      
      . See N.L.R.B. v. Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, 5 Cir. 1970, 430 F.2d 966.
