Order reversed on the law and the facts; application granted; and judgment of June 14, 1939 vacated. On this record, we believe defendant has dearly sustained Ms burden of establishing Ms contention that, When he pleaded guilty in 1939, be neither had counsel nor was advised of his right to counsel. Christ, Acting P. J., Brennan, Hill, Hopkins and Benjamin, JJ., concur.
