          letter to Mr. Khalatbari reminding him of the agreement and                 
          asking when payments could be expected.  CTC received $325,000              
          from Mr. Khalatbari in June 1977.  This amount was listed on the            
          CTC receipts journal as "Other" with a note indicating that this            
          was a commission "due CTC from DPC".20                                      
               By 1978 the relationship between CTC and Diesel Power was in           
          its last stages.  In a memo to the file dated April 24, 1978,               
          Mrs. Conway noted the receipt of three checks from Clark.  She              
          described therein the allocation of each check to the two                   
          companies and concluded with the following postscript to Diesel             
          Power:                                                                      
               These checks are being treated in accordance with the                  
               agreement between Caspian Trading Company and Diesel Power             
               Company and Diesel Power's share has been credited to Diesel           
               Power's account with Caspian, and will be disposed of under            
               the on-going negotiations.                                             
                                 T. Payments by Clark

          petitioner's income from Clark by $35,300.29.  During 1973 Clark            
          issued two checks payable to CTC in the total amount of                     
          $56,301.23.  Clark also issued one check payable to Diesel Power            
          in the total amount of $2,532.60.  Thus, total commission
