In May, 1938, petitioner-appellee filed in the District Court his petition for a writ of mandamus1 directed to the Secretary of the Treasury and the members of the Department’s Committee on Enrollment and Disbarment, commanding them to admit him as an attorney. In the alternative, he prayed that the court declare his rights, as a retired officer of the army, in relation to the controversy. Upon entry of a rule to show cause, the Secretary and the Committee filed their return and answer. The trial court sustained petitioner’s demurrer to' the answer and issued the writ.
