His immunity is coextensive with his constitutional privilege not to incriminate himself. Murphy v. Waterfront Commission, 378 U.S. 52 , 79, 84 S.Ct. 1594, 12 L.Ed.2d 678; Brown v. United States, 359 U.S. 41 , 79 S.Ct. 539, 3 L.Ed.2d 609; United States v. Harris, 334 F.2d 460 (C.A.2); United States v. Testa, 326 F.2d 730 (C.A. 3), cert. denied, 376 U.S. 931, 84 S.
