                          January 13, 1998
Before JONES, SMITH and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Tammy Williams appeals from the district court’s judgment

affirming the denial of her application for supplemental security

income benefits.   Williams argues that the decision of the

Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) is not supported by substantial

evidence; that the ALJ failed to consider her IQ as a severe

        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent

R. 47.5.4.

                                 -2-

Psychiatric Review Technique Form; that the ALJ failed to give

proper weight to the opinion of Williams’ treating physician; and

that the ALJ posed an inadequate hypothetical question to the

vocational expert.    We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.    Accordingly, the judgment is AFFIRMED for

essentially the reasons stated by the district court.    See

Williams v. Callahan, No. SA-96-CV-293 (W.D. Tex. March 14,

1997).

     AFFIRMED.
