Abstract

An important question under the capital gains provisions of the revenue laws is the meaning of the term "hold." The author studies judicial concepts of "holding" and concludes that inconsistencies have been introduced by judicial reaction to changing concepts of property. Noting that past legislative attempts to remedy the situation have been fruitless, he issues a call for "enlightened" congressional action.
