KILEY, Circuit Judge
(concurring).
The court’s opinion does not answer defendant’s argument that the District Court did not “hear the evidence as to the acts complained of” as required by § 41, sub. b, of the Bankruptcy Act.1 The answer is that the Government rested its case upon the referee’s certificate and the transcript of proceedings, before the referee, filed with the court; the record does not show a “plea of not guilty” as there was in In re McIntosh, 9 Cir., 73 F.2d 908, cited by defendant, and defendant made no offer of evidence at the hearing ; and on what was before the District Court as recited in its order there was sufficient evidence to sustain the finding of guilt.

. 11 U.S.C.A. § 69.
