The opinion

Murdock,

concurring: I think this case is contrary to that of Victor G. Marquissee, 11 B. T. A. 334; affd., 47 Fed. (2d) 32. The effort to distinguish the latter case in the Watson case does not satisfy me. However, since the Commissioner has acquiesced in the Watson case, I concur in the result reached here.

Smith agrees with the above.
