               Other Rental Deductions                                                
               Respondent has proposed as a finding of fact that                      
          petitioners are entitled to deductions for rental property                  
          expenses and mileage in the following aggregated amounts:                   
                              Year            Amount                                  
                              1982           $7,528.00                                
                              1983           2,072.92                                 
                              1984           2,234.76                                 
                              1985           4,887.57                                 
                              1986           562.15                                   
                              1987           7,256.86                                 
          We find accordingly.  Petitioners have failed to prove that they            
          incurred any additional rental property expenses or mileage.  No            
          further deduction for rental property expenses or mileage is                
          allowed.                                                                    
          Additions to Tax                                                            
               1.  Failure to File                                                    
               Respondent determined section 6651(a)(1) additions to tax              
          against Walter for his 1982 through 1986 taxable years.  Section            
          6651(a)(1) provides that, in the case of a failure to file an               
          income tax return by the due date, there shall be imposed an                
          addition to tax for such failure of 5 percent of the amount of              
          tax, reduced by timely payments and credits under section                   
          6651(b)(1), for each month or portion thereof during which the              
          failure continues, not exceeding 25 percent in the aggregate,               
          unless such failure is due to reasonable cause and not due to               
          willful neglect.
