United States Court of Claims, Elwood Swank et al. [May, 1981] JUSTICE WHITE, dissenting. The Court today rejects the Internal Revenue Service's interpretation of 611 and 613 and the applicable regulation because it has not "suggested any rational basis for linking the right to a depletion deduction to the period of time that the taxpayer operates a mine." The Court suggests that depletion tax policy should be the same "whether the entire operation is conducted by one taxpayer over a prolonged period or by a series of taxpayers for successive shorter period." My disagreement with the Court's opinion is simple: It is not our function to speculate on who deserves an allowance; our duty is to determine if the Service's interpretation is a reasonable one. Since in my view the construction of the statutory provisions and the attendant regulation is clearly acceptable, I dissent. Congress has provided for a depletion allowance in recognition of the fact that mineral deposits are wasting assets in order "to compensate the owner for the part used up in production." Helreriny v. Bankline Oil Co., 303 U. S. 362, 366 (1938). The theoretical justification for the allowance is that it will permit an owner to recoup his capital investment in the minerals as the resources are being exhausted. Commis,sioner v.
