dered decision in the Arlington case,
sustaining plaintiffs demurrer to the
Attorney Generals suggestion that be-
cause the United States was indirectly

court will look into the grounds of its
right to intervene, and that accordingly
the government in this suit must stand
upon the strength of its title and not upon
its exemption from suit.
