Opinion
The judgment of conviction for theft and for possession of stolen goods (four counts) from interstate commerce is affirmed.
There was no mathematical proof that the goods had not left interstate commerce, but the jury could have found, on the circumstances of the case, beyond a reasonable doubt that the interstate transit had not terminated. This the jury did. Other elements of the crime are clearly present.
Other points we find without substance.
