## Opinion text

BIGGS, Chief Judge
(concurring).
I concur in everything in the majority opinion except as to the basis stated for the disposition of Bernstein’s contention that there should be no deduction for his 1955 benefits because he earned less than $1,200 that year as a self-employed lawyer. On this point I adhere to the reasoning of the Appeals Council.
