the killing of Rosenthal in connection
with Becker's alleged relations with
the gambler.
In gathering evidence for the pro-
posed John Doe Investigation the po-
lice alliance with gambling and dis
orderly resorts, II was stated today
by one of the district attorneys assis-
tants that the so-called "vice trust
OF 32 dlsorderly houses ralded on Aug.
15 had set aside the sum Of $5O'OOO
out OF It's profits as a corruption fun0
for the delivery Of the district at
torney. Although a number of these
houses re-opened after the RAID
which was conducted by Assistant
District Attorney Smith and agents OF
the society for the prevention OF
crime, they recently closed again.
Fear Of a repetition of the raid from
the district attorneys office Is the re-
ported reason. The $4,000 fund re-
ported, It was said, Is one weeks re-
ceipts of the inmates in the 80 hous-
es operated by the trusts who, dur
Ing that time, were compelled TO give
up to the Syndicate" their personal
