## Opinion text

*1008 OPINION.
Smith :
The only questions for the determination of the Board in this proceeding are the reasonableness of the salary paid to the president for the year 1920, and whether such amount was an ordinary and necessary expense of the business..
We are of the opinion from a consideration of the entire evidence that both of these questions must be answered in the affirmative.
Judgment will be entered on 15 days’ notice, under Rule 50.
Considered by Littleton, Love, and Teussell.
