1Opinion of the Court

SPARKS, Circuit Judge.

These appeals are from a decree of the District Court in a reorganization proceeding under section 77B of the Bankruptcy Act (11 U.S.C.A. § 207). The bases of the first appeal, Cause No. 5581, are (1) the court’s refusal to award any allowance for services to the Bondholders’ Protective Committee; (2) the court’s refusal to award any allowance to that committee’s attorneys for services rendered prior to the negotiations alleged to relate to the reorganization; and (3) the reduction of the allowance of $12,000 by the Master to Charles M. Polk to $8000.
