PER CURIAM.
The Tax Court decided that certain payments made by the petitioner, Unitex Industries, Inc., were to be trated, for Federal income tax purposes, as dividends on its preferred stock rather than as deductible interest expense. Unitex Industries, Inc. v. Commissioner, 30 T.C. 468. We find ourselves in agreement with the determination of the Tax Court. See United States v.

Affirmed.
