PER CURIAM:
This appeal questions the amount of the fees awarded counsel for plaintiffs in three actions to enforce awards of the Railway Adjustment Board. The statute, 45 U.S.C.A. § 153, subd. l(p), directs that the court allow a reasonable attorney’s fee when a plaintiff prevails in such cases. We are satisfied that the District Court did not abuse its discretion in the awards made here.
Affirmed.
