The opinion
PER CURIAM.
These are petitions to review decisions of the Tax Court of the United States in renegotiation cases involving the years 1943 and 1944. Petitioner, an individual with an office in New York City, was during those years employed by several steel companies as a salesman on a straight-commission basis. Some of the sales upon which petitioner received his commissions were to companies which had contracts with the Government or were subcontractors under such contracts. The War Contracts Price Adjustment Board redetermined petitioner’s profits from such commissions. He petitioned the Tax Court for a redetermination, principally upon the ground that he was not a subcontractor within the meaning of the Renegotiation Act.
The Renegotiation Act of 1943
1
provides, in pertinent part:
“(5) The term ‘subcontract’ means—
i{e $ í¡í
%
ijí
“(B) Any contract or arrangement * * * (i) any amount payable under which is contingent upon the procurement of a contract or contracts with a Department or of a subcontract or subcontracts, or determined with reference to the amount of such a contract or subcontract * *

Judge Disney of the Tax Court made detailed findings of fact and promulgated an exhaustive opinion upon the point.
3
We agree with his views, and upon that basis the decisions of the Tax Court are affirmed.
The Government says that this court does not have jurisdiction to review the decisions of the Tax Court. However, we are of opinion that the question presented concerns the jurisdiction of the Tax Court, and therefore we have jurisdiction to review the point.
