1. ““The court is of the opinion that the rule of Rasmussen v. Gardner, supra, is applicable to the circumstances of this case, where plaintiff and his wife jointly owned the property, and equally participated in its operation. The record does not reflect that plaintiff was the controlling manager, guiding light, or moving spirit of the enterprise to warrant attributing income derived from the labors of his wife to his earnings account. Cf. Hellberg v. Celebrezze, 245 F.Supp. 390 (W.D.Mo.1965); Poss v. Ribicoff, 289 F.2d 10 (2nd Cir. 1961); Dondero v. Celebrezze, 312 F.2d 677 (2nd Cir. 1963). And see Rhoads v. Folsom, 252 F.2d 377 (7th Cir. 1958) (crediting each wage earner with salary earned according to the services rendered).” 315 F.Supp. at 1073 .”
