WHITAKER, Judge
(dissenting).
I think jurisdiction to recover property seized by the Alien Property Custodian is expressly denied this court by section 9(f) of the Trading with the Enemy Act, supra. It reads:
“Except as herein provided, the money or other property conveyed, transferred, assigned, delivered, or' paid to the Alien Property Custodian, shall not be liable to lien, attachment, garnishment, trustee process, or execution, or subject to any order or decree of any court.”
Numerous cases cited in the defendant’s brief support this view.
