In City of New York v. Saper,
In view of the now settled rule-that even governmental claims bear no-
*503
interest during bankruptcy or reorganization this contention seems to us of doubtful logic. Under the Boyd case existing priorities must be recognized up to the bar date of initiation of the proceedings; hut thereafter they stand as then established and are fully discharged upon consummation of the final plan of reorganization. Bankruptcy Act § 228, 11 U.S.C. § 628. In view of the “practical necessity” of some bar date, see Note, Allowance of Interest During Reorganization Proceedings, 50 Yale L.J. 144, 150; 6 Collier on Bankruptcy 2817, 14th Ed. 1947, it would seem anomalous that sometime later there might be a revivification of priorities once terminated. At any rate we conceive that the Supreme Court has quite thoroughly settled the matter in the cases cited. Not only is the analogy of the two decisions to this case direct; in addition the language used and the rationale employed were far-reaching. Thus Mr. Justice Jackson, writing for the Court, holds it “a sound and logical interpretation” of the Chandler Act after the amendments to §§ 64, sub. a, and 57, sub. n, 11 U.S.C. §§ 104, sub. a, and 93, sub. n, to conclude that “Congress assimilated taxes to other debts for all purposes, including denial of post-bankruptcy interest.” City of New York v. Saper, supra, 336 U.S. at pages 337, 338,
Hence Judge Kaufman was quite within his power in allowing the State here only such interest as other bondholders of like class were to receive.
Affirmed.
