PER CURIAM:

The principal ground of appeal from this conviction of appellant for knowingly possessing articles stolen from the United States mail, 18 U.S.C.A. § 1708, is that incriminating statements made by Jones during his detention should have been stricken as having been improperly obtained by the arresting officers. A careful reading of the record convinces us that the Miranda proceedings were fully carried out and incriminating statements were made both before and after the appellant signed a waiver.

We have carefully considered the other grounds of appeal and find them to be without merit.

The judgment is affirmed.
