1Opinion of the Court
WILLSON, District Judge.
This is an action for a declaratory judgment as authorized by 28 U.S.C.A. § 2201. The jurisdiction is diversity. The parties assert that there is an actual controversy between them. Plaintiff is a Maryland corporation, engaged in business in West Virginia primarily. Defendant is a New York corporation, which issued a comprehensive general liability insurance policy to the plaintiff for the year 1951. The policy was countersigned at Uniontown in this District so that the law of Pennsylvania controls the decision in this case and the parties have so stipulated.
