Federal Tax Slows Gambling Says Expert In 1930s Memo
Federal tax on gambling dramatically slows the industry, with Eugens Coyle of the revenue bureau noting big operators closing while many smaller bettors continue. The FCC orders a probe into Western Union use of telegraph wires for gambling and delays new regulations to May 3 for hearings on constitutionality and impact on illegal gambling. Estimates show tax collections near $82,904 in December, with projections of revenue but a noted drop as operators adjust to the new law.
