PER CURIAM.
The District Court entered summary judgment for defendants on a complaint which alleged that the defendant Deputy Commissioner, U. S. Department of Labor, erred in granting an award to defendant claimant under the District of Columbia Workmen's Compensation Act. D.C.Code § 36-501 (1951), incorporating by reference The Longshoremen's and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, Title 33, ch. 18 U.S.C.1 The Deputy Commissioner granted the award on the basis of his finding of a permanent partial disability resulting from an injury the claimant sustained in 1955 in the course of his employment by appellant building company.
Appellants contend that the record as a whole does not support the findings of the Deputy Commissioner. The record discloses sufficient evidence to sustain the award and the order appealed from is
Affirmed.
