    Dec. 14, 1973.

    See 94 S.Ct. 1625.
    R. Norvell Graham, Jr., San Antonio, Tex., for defendant-appellant.

       Rule 18, 5 Cir.; see Isbell Enterprises, Inc. v. Citizens Casualty Co. of New York et al., 5 Cir., 1970, 431 F.2d 409.
    
   PER CURIAM:

The appellant was charged with possession of amphetamine, in violation of the Assimilative Crimes Act, 18 U.S.C. A. § 13, which made applicable the provisions of Art. 726d, Vernon’s Ann.Penal Code of Texas. He entered a plea of guilty and was sentenced to two years confinement.

There is a federal statute, 21 U.S.C.A. § 844(a), which is applicable to the offense. Violation of that statute is only a misdemeanor, and the maximum eon-finement under it is one year. The government concedes that the federal statute is controlling rather than the Assim-ilative Crimes Act and the Texas statute, violation of which is a felony.

The sentence must be vacated and the cause remanded for the entry of a new judgment imposing sentence under the federal statute. Hockenberry v. United States, 422 F.2d 171 (CA9, 1970); Dunaway v. United States, 170 F.2d 11 (CA10, 1948). Cf. Kniess v. United States, 413 F.2d 752 (CA9, 1969); Moorman v. United States, 389 F.2d 27 (CA5, 1968).

There is no merit to appellant’s other claims.

Vacated and remanded.
