Washington, March 29.—Treasury officials in studying today the deci- sions handed down_ in the income tax cases yesterday by , the supreme court expressed belicf that regula- tions under the revenue Jaws by which taxes have been collected since 1916 had been greatly strengthened. The decisions, holding that any gain derived from corporate securities or corporate ets, and any increase in the value of a capital investment, when realized, is taxable as income, will meéan, it was sald, that the treas- ury will be enabled to retain funds estimated at several hundred million dollars involved in litigation or paid under protest pending a decision by the supreme court. It will be some time before officials can give an estimate of the actual amount of money involved in the de- ions because auditing of tax re- turns by the treasury is far behind, returns for the calendar year 1917 not having been completely checked.
