PER CURIAM.

We allowed this petition for a writ of mandamus to be filed so that we might consider the petitioner's claim that it was the clear duty of the District Court to admit the petitioner to its bar. After hearing argument and being now fully advised, we find that mandamus does not lie. In re Jacobi, 94 U.S.App.D.C. 106, 217 F.2d 668.
