    MAZINE Z. FOX and JOSIE R. FOX, his wife, v. HAROLD L. ICKES, Secretary of the Interior
    Equity No. 57738
    Stephen E. Chaffee, P. B. Kavanagh and P. C. King, Jr., for plaintiffs,
    J. Kennard Cheadle, Nathan R. Margold, Charles Fahy and H. R. Stinson for defendant.
   BAILEY, J.

It appears from the proposed amended bills that the orders made by the defendant are not authorized by Congress, and had they been so authorized, would have deprived the plaintiffs of vested rights. The suits are not brought against the United States but to set aside unauthorized acts of the defendant in cases in which he has no discretionary powers, and is acting arbitrarily.

The motions for .leave to file the amended bills will be granted.
