                                       - 12 -                                         

          respect to the deficiencies and additions to tax here at issue.             
          For the same reasons, neither the Code of Federal Regulations nor           
          the parallel table of authorities cited by petitioner supports              
          his BATF transfer argument.10  We see no reason to belabor that             
          point.                                                                      
               As to petitioner's argument concerning a lack of                       
          implementing regulations, petitioner's contention that title 27,            
          but not title 26, of the Code of Federal Regulations contains               
          implementing regulations for various Internal Revenue Code                  
          sections,11 including those sections contained in chapters 63 and           
          64 regarding assessment and collection, is incorrect as a matter            
          of fact.  Numerous regulations have been promulgated concerning             
          respondent's assessment and collection authority as it may bear             
          on these proceedings.  See, e.g., secs. 301.6020-1, 301.6201-1,             
          301.6203-1, 301.6211-1, 301.6212-1, 301.6213-1, 301.6215-1,                 
          301.6301-1, 301.6303-1, 301.6601-1, 301.6651-1, Proced. & Admin.            
          Regs.  Petitioner's challenge to respondent's assessment and                
          collection authority has no merit.  Respondent validly issued a             
          notice of deficiency under the authority of sections 6211 and               
          6212.  Petitioner has invoked the jurisdiction of this Court                


          10  The parallel table of authorities is merely an ancillary                
          finding device included in the Code of Federal Regulations.                 
          11  Petitioner cites the following Internal Revenue Code                    
          secs.:  6020, 6201, 6203, 6301, 6303, 6321, 6331 through 6343,              
          6601, 6602, 6651, 6701, and 7207.  Secs. 6321, 6331-6343, 6701,             
          and 7207 relate to issues that are not, in any conceivable way,             
          raised in these proceedings.  We see no need to address those               
          provisions.
