V Rulings Nos. 13120-13266- Tax Court of the United States, The, formerly United States Board of Tax Appeals . ........ 1-4 Income Tax- Part I (Internal Revenue Code) . ..... 5-109 Part H (Revenue Act of 1938 and prior Revenue Acts) .... ................ 110-112 Estate and Gift Taxes ................. .. 113-118 Employment Taxes ... ............ 119-126 Miscellaneous Taxes- Excise Taxes, Stamp Taxes, etc ...... . 127-135 Miscellaneous Rulings .. .............. 137-268 Legislation ...................... 269-281 Committee reports . .. ..... ........ 282-301 Index ...... .. ............... . 303-312 The rulings reported in the Internal Revenue Bulletin are for the information of taxpayers and their counsel as showing the trend of official opinion in the administration of the Bureau of Internal Revenue; the rulings other than Treasury Decisions have none of the force or effect of Treasury Decisions and do not commit the Department to any interpretation of the law which has not been formally approved and promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. Each rulin embodies the administrative application of the law and Treasury Decisions to the entire state of farts upon which a particular case rests. It is especially to be noted thpt the same result will not neces- sarily be reached in another case unless all the material facts are identical with those of the reported case. As it is not always feasible to publish a complete statement of the facts underlying each ruling, there can be no assurance that any new case is identical with the reported case. As bearing out this distinction, it may be observed that the rulings published from time to time may appear to reverse rulin;s previously published. Officers of the Bureau of Internal Revenue are especially cautioned against reaching a conclusion in any case merely on the basis of similarity to a published ruling, and should base their judgment an the application of all pertinent provisions of the law and Treasury Decisions to all the facts in each case. These rulings should be used as aids in studying the law and its formal construction as made in the regulations and Treasury Decisions pre- viously iF. d. In addition to publishing all Internal Revenue Treasury Decisions, it is the policy of the Bureau of Internal Revenue to publish all rulings and decisions, including opinions of the Chief Counsel for the Bureau of Internal Revenue, which, because they announce a ruling or decision upon a novel question or upon a question in regard to which there exists no previously published ruling or decision, or for other reasons, are of such importance as to be of general interest. It is also the policy of the Bureau to publish all rulings or decisions which revoke, modify, amend, or affect in any manner whatever any published ruling or decision. In many instances opinions of the Chief Counsel for the Bureau of Internal Revenue are not of general interest because they announce no new ruling or new construction of the revenue laws but simply apply rulings already made public to certain situations of fact which are without special significance. It is not the policy of the Bureau to publish such opinions. Therefore, the numbers assigned to the published opinions of the Chief Counsel for the Bureau of Internal Revenue are not consecutive. No unpublished ruling or decision will be cited or relied upon by any officer or employee of the Bureau of Internal Revenue as a precedent in the disposition of other cases. Unless otherwise upecifically indicated, all published ruings and decisions have received the consideration and approval of the Chief Counsel for the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
