                 Per  Curiam.      Plaintiff  appeals  dismissal  of  his
                 ___________

            complaint   under  Fed.  R.  Civ.  P.  12(b)(1),(6).    In  a

            comprehensive  opinion,  the  district  court  held  that the

            complaint  failed to state a claim upon which relief could be

            granted  in light of the  provisions of 12  U.S.C.   1823(e),

            and the doctrine of  D'Oench, Duhme & Co. v.  Federal Deposit
                                 ____________________     _______________

            Ins. Corp., 315 U.S. 447 (1942).
            __________

                 Based  on  our  own  reading of  the  record,  and after

            consideration of  the parties briefs on appeal, we agree with

            the district court's decision to dismiss this complaint under

            the  D'Oench doctrine.   Accordingly,  the judgment  below is
                 _______

            affirmed.
