    PER CURIAM:

    1

    The judgment of the trial court was based on adequately supported findings of fact and well-reasoned conclusions of law. These conclusions correctly analyzed the law as articulated by the Supreme Court in Libson Shops v. Koehler, 353 U.S. 382, 77 S. Ct. 990, 1 L. Ed. 2d 924, and by this court in Willingham v. United States, 5 Cir., 289 F.2d 283. The judgment of the trial court relies on, and is consistent with, the decision by the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in Julius Garfinckel & Co. v. C.I.R., 2d Cir., 335 F.2d 744, cert. denied 85 S. Ct. 651. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed on the findings and conclusions expressed in its judgment, 238 F. Supp. 258.
