PER CURIAM:
The district court, 301 F. Supp. 713, entered judgment granting a refund of capital-gain taxes paid by plaintiff, a trustee of an endowment fund established under Washington law to provide perpetual care for a profit-making cemetery.
The judgment is reversed, for the reasons stated in Evergreen Cemetery Association of Seattle v. United States of America, 444 F.2d 1232 (9th Cir. 1971).
The difference between a trustee (this case) and a nonprofit corporation (Evergreen Cemetery case) has no bearing upon tax exemption under Internal Revenue Code of 1954, ยง 501(c) (13).
