PER CURIAM.
In an appeal from an order dismissing a complaint by the appellants,

It further appearing that no allegations of diversity of citizenship or any intelligible assertion of a federal question are set forth in the complaint, and
The court perceiving no jurisdiction in the District Court to entertain the action on any ground whatsoever nor to grant the relief prayed should jurisdiction be established,
It is ordered that the judgment below be and it is hereby affirmed.
