PER CURIAM:
On remand from the Supreme Court, 415 U.S. 391, 94 S. Ct. 1177, 39 L. Ed. 2d 412 (1974), the judgment below is affirmed for the reasons stated in Johnson v. Robison, 415 U.S. 361, 94 S. Ct. 1160, 39 L. Ed. 2d 389 (1974). Hernandez v. Veterans' Aministration, 467 F.2d 479 (9th Cir. 1972), insofar as it reads 38 U.S.C. 211(a) as precluding judicial review when sought on constitutional grounds, is overruled.
Oliver D. Hamlin, Jr., United States Circuit Judge, sat with the original panel hearing this case. He died December 28, 1973. Because the remand requires of this court a ministerial act only, the surviving members of the panal have disposed of the case
The Honorable E. Avery Crary, United States District Judge for the Central District of California, sitting by designation
