The defendant appeals from a judgment after conviction on a two-count indictment, the first of which charged a conspiracy to violate § 1791, Title 18 U.S.C., by an agreement to introduce or attempt to introduce upon the grounds of a Federal penal institution, "five jars of instant coffee without the knowledge and consent of the warden or superintendent of said Penitentiary." The second count charged the substantive offense. The substantive statute provides: "Whoever, contrary to any rule or regulation promulgated by the Attorney General, introduces or attempts to introduce into or upon the grounds of any Federal penal or correctional institution or takes or attempts to take or send therefrom any thing whatsoever, shall be imprisoned not more than ten years." 18 U.S.C. § 1791. The applicable regulation provides: "The introduction or attempt to introduce into or upon the grounds of any Federal penal or correctional institution * * * any thing whatsoever without the knowledge and consent of the warden or superintendent of such Federal penal or correctional institution is prohibited."
