We held in Bonwit Teller Co. v. United States, 52 F.2d 904, 72 Ct. Cl. 559, certiorari denied 285 U.S. 538, 52 S. Ct. 311, 76 L. Ed. 931, a case in all respects similar to the present, that, where an overpayment was timely allowed and illegally credited, interest continued to run under the statute when a suit was brought to recover the balance of the overpayment and that the taxpayer was entitled to recover interest on the overpayment allowed and unpaid from the date of payment of tax to a date not more than thirty days preceding the date of the refund check in accordance with section 177(b) of the Judicial Code as amended by section 615(a) of the Revenue Act of 1928 (28 USCA § 284(b). Plaintiffs are, therefore, entitled to recover the interest claimed.
