the item off the books. Acting under
the direction of the State tax board,

commissioner Of the revenue to dis
regard the action of the local board OF
review and to extend the omitted prop
ertv for taxation. The Tredegar Com
pany sought by injunction to restrain
the auditor, the injunction was grant.

cision of the court yesterday sustalns
