High Court Rules Gaming Tax Legal Occupational Tax Upheld By Court WASHINGTON (INS) —The supreme court ruled, 6 to 2, today that the SSO occupational tax on gamblers and their required registration are legal in the nation’s capital. The law was challenged on grounds that it conflicts with federal laws in the District of Columbia and that a person registering and paying the SSO fee would be giving evidence against himself. Justice Sherman Minton delivered the majority opinion, while Justices Hugo Black and William O. Douglas dissented. In a 1952 Pennsylvania case, the supreme court held, 6 to 3, that the law was a constitutional use of the taxing power and pointed out that there is no general federal law against gambling. The majority opinion said: “There is nothing compulsory about it (the tax) and consequently, there is nothing violatiVe of the fifth amendment. “If he (a gambler) does not pay the occupational tax and is prosecuted therefor, as in this case, he cannot be compelled to testify and may claim his privilege."
