rities issued," with the result that "the proportional interest of the stockholder after the distribution of the new securities was deemed to be exactly the same." [22] Miles _v._ Safe Deposit & Trust Co., 259 U.S. 247 (1922). [23] Koshland _v._ Helvering, 298 U.S. 441 (1936) [24] Helvering _v._ Gowran, 302 U.S. 238 (1937). [25] Helvering _v._ National Grocery Co., 304 U.S. 282, 288-289 (1938). In Helvering _v._ Mitchell, 303 U.S. 391 (1938) the defendant contended the collection of 50% of any deficiency in addition to the deficiency alleged to have resulted from a fraudulent intent to evade the income tax amounted to the imposition of a criminal penalty. The Court, however, described the additional sum as a civil and not a criminal sanction, and one which could be constitutionally employed to safeguard the Government against loss of revenue. In contrast, the exaction upheld in Helvering _v._ National Grocery Co., though conceded to possess the attributes of a civil sanction, was declared to be sustainable as a tax.

Another provision of the Revenue Act, requiring undistributed net income of a foreign personal holding company to be included in the gross income of citizens or residents who are shareholders in such company, was upheld as constitutional in Rodney _v._ Hoey, 53 F. Supp. 604, 607-608 (1944). [28] Farmers Union Co-op Co. _v._ Commissioner of Int. Rev., 90 F. (2d) 488, 491, 492 (1937). [29] Burk-Waggoner Oil Asso. _v._ Hopkins, 269 U.S. 110 (1925).
