                                       - 18 -                                         
          same reasons we found petitioners to be negligent in claiming the           
          reported loss as a deduction, we would also find petitioners                
          lacked reasonable cause for doing so.  See sec. 6661(c); sec.               
          1.6661-6(b), Income Tax Regs.  We sustain respondent’s                      
          determination that petitioners are liable for the section 6661(a)           
          addition to tax for a substantial understatement of tax.                    
               Reviewed and adopted as the report of the Small Tax Case               
          Division.                                                                   
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              
                                             Decision will be entered                 
                                        for respondent.
