Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

On the facts we concur in the finding and decree of the District Court. 197 Fed. 661. To enforce the contract as claimed by appellant, without proof of actual damages, would be inequitable, permitting the appellant to enrich himself at the expense of the appellee. Decree affirmed.
