MR. JUSTICE McKENNA delivered the opinion of the Court.

Judgment in this case was rendered at the same time as that in Mason & Hanger Co. v. United States, ante, 260 U. S. 323.

The amounts only are different. In that case, it was $2,500 -- in this case it is $150. In both, the amounts represented premiums on bonds and depend upon the same considerations. On the authority of the Mason & Hanger Co. case, the judgment of the Court of Claims in this case is

Affirmed.
