REEBER
v.
ROSSELL ET AL.
PER CURIAM.
Since the members of the United States Civil Service Commission have not been made parties to this action, the court was without jurisdiction to pass on the merits of the plaintiff’s claim. Blackmar v. Guerre, 342 U.S. 512, 72 S.Ct. 410. The Blackmar decision apparently was not called to the attention of the court below, and only the merits were dealt with by Judge McGohey in his opinion dismissing the complaint, 106 F.Supp. 373. But in our view the reasoning of the Supreme Court in Blackmar v. Guerre, supra, evidently required a dismissal for lack of jurisdiction.
Accordingly the judgment of the district court' should be modified by directing the dismissal of the complaint for lack of jurisdiction and as so modified is affirmed.
