Here for review are three decisions of the Tax Court- a decision holding that there was a deficiency of $8,639.38 in respect of the income tax of the estate of Ella K. McClatchy, deceased, for 1942, and that there was a deficiency of.$1,731.25 in respect of the income and victory tax of said estate for 1943; a decision holding that there was a deficiency of $213.54 in respect of the income and victory tax of Charlotte Maloney for 1943; and a decision holding that there was a deficiency of $2,904.43 in respect of the income and victory tax of Eleanor McClatchy for 1943. The reasons for these decisions are well stated in the Tax Court's opinion (12 T.C. 370). We agree with what is said in that opinion. Accordingly, these decisions are affirmed.
