1Opinion of the Court

SIMONS, Chief Judge.

This review involves deficiencies in taxes for the fiscal years ending May 31, 1942, 1943 and 1944. They grow out of a challenged determination by the Commissioner that the basis for depreciation of property was the sum paid by petitioner at foreclosure sale and not its cost to an earlier corporation, because the petitioner did not obtain the property in pursuance of a reorganization under the provisions of § 112 (b) (3), § 112(g) (1) (C) and § 112(b) (5), of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S. C.A.§ 112(b) (3,5) (g) (1) (C).
