Opinion

No. 7750.

Argued October 22, 1941.

Decided September 28, 1942. Rehearing Granted October 30, 1942.

On Petition for Review of the Decision of the United States Board of Tax Appeals.

Morton K. Rothschild, Sp. Asst. to Atty. Gen. (Samuel O. Clark, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., and J. Louis Monarch, Sp. Asst. to Atty. Gen., on the brief), for petitioner.

Thomas M. Wilkins, of Washington, D.C. (Frank S. Harman, of New York City, on the brief), for respondent.

Before BIGGS, MARIS, and GOODRICH, Circuit Judges.


The case at bar is ruled by the decision of this court in Helvering v. Wilmington Trust Co., 3 Cir., 124 F.2d 156, 158, reversed by the Supreme Court on another point. See Wilmington Trust Co. v. Helvering, 316 U.S. 164, 62 S.Ct. 984, 86 L. Ed. ___. The review in the cited case was expressly limited by the Supreme Court to but one question and did not affect this court's ruling as to the point now involved.

Accordingly the decision of the Board of Tax Appeals is reversed and the cause is remanded with directions to redetermine the tax in accordance with this opinion.
