Opinion

[372] MEMORANDUM

BY THE COURT.

1. The facts averred do not show a contract, express or implied, between plaintiff and the United States.

2. It appears that the Government paid the prime contractor the price for the goods delivered, and if the prime contractor imposed upon plaintiff, that fact does not give a cause of action against the defendant.
