Crime in America By ESTES KEFAUVER United States Senator Six of a Series Miami: Polluted Playground As we opened hearings in Miami, it oppressed us that an area so blessed by nature could be so polluted by man. The fabulous coast had become the plunder-ground as well as the playground for America’s most vicious criminals. With the nod of well-paid so-called law enforcement officers, Miami was the winter capital of the national crime syndicate. A great deal of this has been changed. The senate crime com mittee’s investigation bolstered the efforts of Miami’s decent citi zens to strike back against the underworld. Even months after our disclosure in Miami, the lid still was clamped tight upon illegal bookmaking, in so far as any large scale activity was concerned, and many of the gambling casinos run by out- of-state hoodlums were shut down. Let on begin with the story of Walter Clark, sheriff since 1933 of neighboring Broward County, of which prosperous Fort Lauderdale is the seat. In \,neriff Clark’s baili wick, there were three notorious gambling Joint*. Among the out-of- state racketeers said to be associat ed with them—as well as in Miami casinos — were the infamous Joe Adonis, the brothers Meyer and Jake Lansky, Vincent (Jimmy Blue- Eyes) Alo, and bookmaker Frank Erickson (since imprisoned), all of New York City and New Jersey; and, from Detroit, Joe Massei and William G. Bischoff, alias Lefty Clark. I asked Clark why he violated his oath of office by ever letting them operate. He gave the brazen reply: “I was elected on the liberal tick et, and the people want it and they enjoy it.” Clark went on to reveal he had been well acquainted with gambler Jake Lansky for 12 or 15 years and that Lansky among others, “con tributes to the campaign.” In Miami (Dade County), we looked into the activities of James A. (Smiling Jimmy) Sullivan, a former traffic policeman who had been sheriff since January, 1945. The voluble Jimmy, who wasn’t smiling much toward the end of his examination, admitted that his as sets jumped from $2,500 to approxi mately $70,000 auring his five years in office. • • • Oi Smiling Jimmy’s performance on the witness stand, the committee, In its report, had to conclude: “Much of Sullivan’s testimony was vague and evasive and the com mittee Ooes not consider it credi ble.” The fantastic aftermath, how ever, was this: After a grand Jury indicted Sul livan, charging him with neglect of duty, failing to enforce gambling laws, and permitting deputies to accept bribes. Governor Fuller War ren, in October, 1950, suspended him from office. Early in April, 1951, however, the indictment having been dismissed on a technicality, the Governor reinstated him. A tragic sidelight was told us by George Patton, who, after serving his country honorably in World War II, became a Miami Beach police man and later a deputy. He de clared hi had intended to be an honest of fleer but soon ’learned that law enforcement didn’t always operate the way I thought it did.” Patton said that when he later became a deputy of Sheriff Sullivan, he collected “close to $50,000” in bribes over a period of nine months for protecting gambling on Miami Beach. He was the collector, h said. ’bag man,” or Two other Miami Beach hotels had special prominence in the op erations of mobsters. One was the Sands hotel operated jointly by Al fred (Big Al) Polizzi, one - time Cleveland mobster and Dave Glass and Benny Street, both of whom had convictions in Philadelphia as horse-book operators. We also learned from questioning Polizzi that his good friend, John Angersola, silently held half of Polizzi’s 25 per cent interest in the Sands. Anger- sola, in addition to interests in the Wofford and the Sands, had a piece of still another mob-favored hotel, the Grand. Purely local and state political matters, of course, were outside of our jurisdiction, but we had a legitimate interest in Governor War ren’s 1948 campaign financing be cause of a $100,000 contribution from William Johnston, the Chicago and Miami horse and dog track opera tor, and long time associate of the Capone gang. Johnston insisted, of course, that it was merely his “strong friend ship” for the governor which prompted the gift. The gigantic operation of the S&G bookmaking syndicate was another major avenue of inquiry. The syn dicate, which itself admitted that it grossed $26,000,000 in 1948, was ^started in Miami Beach in 1944 by five “local” boys. For a long time, the S&G mo nopoly over Miami Beach bookmak- VOTED DOWN ing was almost 100 per cent com plete. Even the then-powerful Frank Erickson, who had paid $45,000 for a three-month bookmaking conces sion at Meyer Schine’s luxurious Roney Plaza hotel, came to grief when he attempted to buck it. Schine, after he broke off an ar rangement with S&G and made the contract with Erickson, was visited by Detective Pat Perdue of the Miami Beach police. Schine said that Perdue told him he should not let the contract go to Erickson. • • • There was only one flaw in the S&G’s highly efficient operation. It became so profitable that it aroused the cupidity of the pros perous crimesters from Chicago who, in the approved manner of upper bracket - hoodlumdom, win tered on beautiful Miami Beach ; soaking up the sun on their daily walks from hotel to horse parlor. Then, as our Committee recon structed the story, the ubiquitous and sinister partnership of Guzik & Accardo entered the picture. It is the Committee’s contention that Guzik & Accardo acting for the Chicago - Capone Syndicate, d i s - patched Harry Russell, a Chicago gambler to S&G early in 1949. Understandably devoted to their $26,000,000 business, the S&G part ners didn’t want to be “muscled.” They declined. The Chicago interests were disappointed but gentlemanly about it. Nothing crude transpired. Their Mr. Russell simply began building up a syndicate of his own, and bookies at a number of plush hotels, dominated by the Chicago mob. flocked over to Russell. • j, • • • Next, Governor Warren’s crime investigator, W. O. Crosby, ap peared. Here things get a little complicated: His friend, RusselL Crosby conceded to us, started feed ing him information on various books that he might raid, and Cros by started raiding them. All were places operated by S&G bookies. Finally came the crusher: S&G was buying its wire service from the local distributor of the same Continental Press that already had undergone the experience of being squeezed by Guzik and Accardo. This service was abruptly shut off, leaving S&G paralyzed. In just about 10 days, the S&G partners took another look at Harry Russell and decided they had been wrong. They decided to recapitalize their business—though they admit ted to us that they really did not need any capita f—and to let Russell have one-sixth interest. The price they asked for this one-sixth in terest in a business that had grossed $26,000,000 the previous year was $20,000. At the same time Mr. Russell bought into the S&G for $20,000, the S&G “boys” happened to buy a boat named the Clari-Jo. The price of the Clari-Jo happened to be $20,- 000, and the owner of the boat—lots of coincidences here— just happened to be Tony Accardo. Accardo, when we had him in the. witness chair later, refused re peatedly to answer questions about it. Finally, however. Senator Wiley innocently inquired, “Who baptized that name, Clari-Jo? Accardo, mo mentarily off-guard, replied. “That is my wife’s first name and my middle name.” As spectators roared With merriment, the crestfallen hoodlum rubbed his jaw with the hand that has a dove tattooed be tween the thumb and trigger-finger. “I fell into that one!” he blurted. Guzik and Accardo’s 1949 tax re turn showed a loss of $7,252 due to “S&G Service.” Anyway, the S&G squeeze hit lemons instead of the jackpot. The combination of the senate commit tee’s disclosures and the opposition of the law-abiding elements in Mi ami Beach finally generated a heat that even the powerful S&G syndi cate could not cool off. Abruptly, “the boys,” without consulting their Chicago associate, Mr. Russell, de cided to go out of business. Next Week: Murder. Tampa.

Attempt To Re-Create Crime Body Fails WASHINGTON — A Republican proposal to re-create the Senate Crime Investigating Committee and give it $150,000 for a new probe was voted down by a Senate Com merce committee. Chairman Johnson (D., Col.) said that the proposal was defeat ed because Democrat members of the committee felt the Senate Dis trict of Columbia committee, now looking into crime conditions in Washington, has the authority to extend its investigations to other parts of the country if necessary. He also pointed out that the pre vious committee investigations had left a big calendar of legislation.

DEVOTIONAL READING:' 27:7-14. P a • 1 m Seeing God's Hand Lesson for October 21, 1951 Dr. Foreman l^rOBODY is ever, in all his life, ^ actually as wise as he thinks he is when he is about 17 years old. We have a remarkable case of this in the Bible, the story of a man whose viewpoint, between his 17th and 56th birthdays, completely changed. It is the story of Joseph. At the age of 17. Joseph was about as nearly insuffer able as any one ever has a chance to be. He was the oldest son of the favorite wife of a wealthy cattle- owner named Jacob. Old Jacob needed all the hands he could use, to look after his sheep and cattle; and he put all twelve of his sons to work. Eleven of them had real work; Joseph, though next to the youngest of them all, was a kind of boss or overseer. At least that is what his father intended. He dressed the boy not In working clothes like the others but in fancy clothes, and used to send him around to see what the other boys were up to. Natu rally Joseph’s brothers did not. take to all this;' in fact they hated him so h&rd that they were on the point of murdering him. « On the very day,of the proposed murder, however, the brothers dis covered a chance to sell him as a slave. So Joseph was sold off to some traveling slave-traders, and for all his brothers knew or cared, he was off to a lingering death. • • • Where Was the Hand of God? r DSEPH expressed no opinion about this at the time. (He was proba bly gagged.) But judging from his general character and behavior at that time of his life, it is no trouble to guess his thoughts. He was “fit to be tied”; indeed, he must have been tied on a camel’s back, for no slave-trader in his senses would make Joseph walk the 200 miles to Egypt. The better his condition on ar rival, the higher the prfee. (As It turned out, a very wealthy man bought him; perhaps only a wealthy man could afford him.) If you had asked Joseph while he was being hauled down to Egypt and the slave-market. Where is God in all this? Joseph might well have answered: “Nowhere. The devil is in this, or my devilish brothers. Nobody means any good by it. Hie only reason they are sell ing me instead of killing me is that they are making a little by it; these slave-traders are certainly not in business for their health. I am the only son my father trusted, and now I shall die a wretched death in a strange land.” • • • The Wisdom of the Years T HAT was Joseph at seventeen. At the age of 56 he saw a dif ferent picture. Many strange years had passed; Joseph had been slave and then prisoner; then by a dra matic turn in his fortunes he had risen overnight to be the top food administrator, price controller and economic stabilizer, all in one, for the great empire of Egypt. His brothers, driven by famine, had fled to Egypt for help, and Joseph, after playing cat-and-mouse with them for months, at last told them (to their great terror) who he was. But he had returned good for evil: had invited down his whole family, father, brothers and all, and given them refuge in a corner of Egypt. At last Jacob died. The brothers, who made the mistake of thinking Joseph no better than themselves, had sup posed that all Joseph was wait ing for was his father’s death. Now would be the time for Joseph’s long-delayed venge ance. Possibly Joseph the boy had dreamed of just such an hour. But Joseph the man was wiser. To his brothers, cower ing before him, he said a memorable thing: “You meant it for evil, but God meant it for good.” (Gen. 50:20.) He still had no illusions about his brothers. They had been a bad lot. But God “meant it for good.” That wicked act, selling him into slavery, had been the unintentional means of saving hundreds of lives. Joseph now, with the wisdom of his 56 years, can see the hand of God which his 17-year-old eyes could not see at all. So in times of distress the thought should come to each of us: God’s hand may just now be out of sight, but some day, looking back even on this distress we too shall see the hand of God.

Quantity Cooking For Church Suppers Requires Planning IT’S ABOUT that time of year when clubs and groups are getting organized enough to plan a large dinner or luncheon to feed most of the group. To run these af fairs smoothly requires advance planning as well as an under standing of what foods are likely to go over nice ly with a crowd. These recipes are planned to give first aid for the homemaker who suddenly faces the task of feeding 25 to 50 people in her group. The recipes given will serve 25, and they are easily doubled to serve 50. Plan the work far enough 'in ad vance to avoid lack of supplies and disappointment when the work ac tually gets under way. All groceries should be ordered in advance and checked the day before the event in case something is missing and the menu has to be changed. If you have help, assign one or more of the foods to be prepared to individuals. Consider who can best do each type of work, and let this be your guide in assignments. Check equipment and dishes to be used so that you have made ample preparations for the actual work, One woman who is capable can di rect the preparation and serving.
