EVANS, Circuit Judge.

Involved herein is a demanded repayment of a refund of taxes for the year 1937, the recovery of which defendant successfully opposed in the District Court. The bases of the controversy were three gifts made by the taxpayer to his three daughters in 1937. A $5,000 annual statutory deduction was claimed by him and was first allowed but later denied by appellant who now seeks an adjudication of the validity of this claim of erroneous refunds.
