Opinion

PER CURIAM:

James W. Elder appeals from a judgment convicting him of a violation of the Dyer Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2312 (1964). He presents three questions here, namely: (1) the instructions given to the jury, and the argument to the jury by the United States Attorney, on the matter of the inferences which may be drawn from proof of possession of property recently stolen was erroneous and deprived Elder of due process of law; (2) the evidence' was insufficient to support the verdict; and (3) Elder was denied his Sixth Amendment right to appointed counsel.

We have examined the facts and law with respect to each of these contentions and are satisfied that no error was committed.

Affirmed.
