BLACKMUN, Circuit Judge.
The sole issue here is whether this Missouri decedent, Alice H. Turner, at her death in 1955 possessed, with respect to certain insurance proceeds, a general power of appointment "created on or before October 21, 1942" so that those proceeds were free from federal estate tax. The governing statute is § 2041 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, 26 U.S.C.A. § 2041.
