80TH CONG., 2D SESS.- CH. 168-APR. 2, 1948 "(2) In applying, with respect to any gift, the ratio stated in clause (A) of paragraph (1), the value at the time of the gift or at the time of the death, referred to in such ratio, shall be reduced- "(A) by such amount as will properly reflect the amount of such gift which was excluded in determining (for the purposes of section 1003 (a), or of section 504 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1932) the total amount of gifts made during the year in which the gift was made; "(B) if a deduction with respect to such gift is allowed under section 812 (e) (the so-called 'marital deduction')- then by an amount which bears the same ratio to such value (reduced as provided in subparagraph (A) of this para- graph) as the aggregate amount of the marital deductions allowed under section 812 (e) bears to the aggregate amount of such marital deductions computed without regard to sub- paragraph (H) of section 812 (e) (1); and "(C) if a deduction with respect to such gift is allowed under section 812 (d) (the so-called 'charitable deduction')- then by the amount of such value, reduced as provided in subparagraph (A) of this paragraph. "(3) Where the decedent was the donor of the gift but, under the provisions of section 1000 (f), the gift was considered as made one-half by his spouse- "(A) the term 'the amount of the tax paid under chapter 4', as used in paragraph (1) of this subsection, includes the amounts paid with respect to each half of such gift, the amount paid with respect to each being computed in the manner provided in paragraph (4) ; and " (B) in applying, with respect to such gift, the ratio stated in clause (A) of paragraph (1), the value at the time of the gift or at the time of the death, referred to in such ratio, includes such value with respect to each half of such gift, each such value being reduced as provided in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2). "(4) (A) For the purposes of paragraph (1) the amount of tax paid under chapter 4, or under Title III of the Revenue Act of 1932, with respect to any gift shall be an amount which bears the same ratio to the total tax paid for the year in which the gift was made as the amount of such gift bears to the total amount of net gifts (computed without deduction of the specific exemption) for such year. "(B) For the purposes of subparagraph (A) the 'amount of such gift' shall be the amount included with respect to such gift in determining (for the purposes of section 1003 (a), or of section 504 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1932) the total amount of gifts made during such year, reduced by the amount of any deduction allowed with respect to such gift under section 1004 (a) (2), or under section 505 (a) (2) of the Revenue Act of 1932 (the so-called 'charitable deduction'), or under section 1004 (a) (3) (the so-called 'marital deduction')."
