Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Appellant seeks a reversal of a decision of the Hawaiian district court dismissing a complaint against appellee seeking a declaratory judgment that the appellee owes one of the employee members of the appellant his wages for a period in which he was allegedly wrongfully discharged, and for judgment for the amount owed. Appellant relies upon Section 301 of the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947, 29 U.S.C.A. § 185 and the Federal Declaratory Judgment Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 and 2202.

The decision of this appeal was withheld awaiting the opinion of the Supreme Court in a similar case, Association of Westinghouse Salaried Employees v. Westinghouse Electric Corp., 75 S.Ct. 488. The Supreme Court’s decision of March 28, 1955 holds that a federal dis *226 trict court has no jurisdiction to entertain such a complaint on either of the statutes relied upon and cannot award the damages sought.

The judgment dismissing the complaint is affirmed.
