PER CURIAM:

     Thomas L. Taylor and his attorney, Murray I. Resnick, petition

for review of the Benefits Review Board’s (Board) affirmance of the

District Director’s award of attorney’s fees. We have reviewed the

record and the District Director’s decision and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the District Di-

rector. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
