Appellant seeks relief under 28 U.S. C.A. § 2255. The record shows affirmatively that he intelligently and effectively waived counsel when he pleaded guilty in 1956. He was twice offered a lawyer and he twice stated that he did not want a lawyer. See McCaffrey v. United States, 5 Cir., 1964, 328 F.2d 606.
