                                                  - 9 -                                                    
            Security benefits received.  Taxpayers must generally include as                               
            income one-half of the Social Security benefits they receive                                   
            during the taxable year.  Sec. 86(a)(1).  Petitioners received                                 
            $14,798 of Social Security benefits in 1988.  Because we have                                  
            sustained respondent's other adjustments, we conclude that                                     
            respondent properly included in petitioners' taxable income one-                               
            half of the $14,798 of Social Security benefits petitioners                                    
            received during 1988.                                                                          


                                                              Decision will be entered                     
                                                        for respondent.
