PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a judgment dismissing the complaint in an action which sought judicial review of a decision of the Veterans' Administration forfeiting under the provisions of 38 U.S.C.A. 715, a compensation award previously made to the plaintiff. By 38 U.S.C.A. 705 judicial review of such a decision is explicitly prohibited. The judgment is affirmed on Judge Galston's opinion, D.C., 132 F.Supp. 692.
