          United States, 343 F.2d 553 (5th Cir. 1965) (disallowing                    
          deductions for depreciation as charitable contributions since               
          depreciation does not constitute a payment, for repairs on                  
          account of the failure to show that the charitable use of the               
          vehicle caused the repairs and it was used for both charitable              
          and other purposes, and for insurance premiums since the taxpayer           
          failed to show that the donee was the sole beneficiary of the               
          policy).  Petitioners may not otherwise claim a deduction for               
          mileage under section 170(i) since there is no evidence as to the           
          amount of the mileage they accumulated in their charitable                  
          endeavors.                                                                  
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              

                                             Decision will be entered for             
                                        respondent.
