High Court Says Bookies
Can Deduct Expenses

The Supreme Court today
held that gamblers. specifically
race bookmakers. may deduct
the cost of operating their lille
gal business from their income
tax.
The unanimous opinion was
handed down in the case of
three Chicago bookmakers, Neil
Sullivan. James Ross and Sam
Mesi. The men, while conduct
ing gambling establishments in
violation Of Illinois laws, made
payments for the rental Of
their premises and for wages
Of their employees. These they
sought to deduct from their
Federal income taxes under
the theory that they were "or-
binary and necessary business
expenses. With this view, the
Supreme Court agreed.
A section Of the Internal
Revenue code provides:
"All ordinary and necessary
expenses paid in carrying
on any trade or business in
Guiding a reasonable allowance
for salaries and for rem
tails" may be deducted from
gross income.
Sullivan and Ross, partners
in Chicago bookm aking,
claimed deduction for wages
and rentals as Of about $4,000

81 White House Bricks
For Sale at $50 Each

on Renovation of the Executive
Mansion, said "this is the first
case l have heard Of in which
anyone has tried to resell any
of the White House materials
Gen. Edgerton said the Con-
gressional Act authorizing the
souvenir sale contained an ad-
monition against commercial
izing the project. He said all
buyers had to sign an applica-
ton form agreeing never to
resell the materials.
Mr.. Pringle, however. says
he does not recall signing any
such agreement.
Gen. Edgerton said the main
deterrent to reSelling the old
White House bricks has been
"the unwritten tradition that
one does not trade on the name
or dignity Of the White House"
He said he did not know what
legal status the no-resale agree
ments had. but assumed that
any interested citizen could
bring a court action to enJoin
the resale Of the bricks.
Mr.. Pringle said II the matter
became controversial, he might
decide to use the bricks after
all, instead Of selling them.

No Details Given

covering the years 194s through
1850.
Although the majority of
Nests bets ranged from so
cents to 81. his business to-
tailed $793,287 in 1916, the
year at issue. He employed
six persons and paid wages to-
falling Sl4,563 for that year.
The United States Tax Court
said there was a deficiency of
$10.887 in his income tax pay
ment.
The tax court, which had
disallowed the deductions, was
reversed by the United States
Court Of Appeals covering Illi-
nois. The Supreme Court
today upheld the appellate
court.
The opinion written by JUS
tice Douglas said in part:
THE regulations make
the Federal excise tax on wages
deductible as an ordinary and
necessary business expense.
This seems to us to be rec
ignition of a gambling enter
prise as a business for Federal
tax purposes. The policy that
allows as a deduction the tax
paid to conduct the business
seems sufficiently hospitable to
allow the normal deductions
of the rent and wages neces-
sary to operate It,"
