Mr.. Moss took charge OF the case
today in the absence Of district at
tcrney Whitman. who left for Boston
early in the day expecting to 20 to
Manchester. Vermont, TO remain over
Sunday with his family.
Directing his attention to the police
graft phase OF the case, brought into
prominence by the allegations of
"Iacw" Rose and "Bridgie" Webber.
that the annual levy Of blackmail by
the police on Illegal resorts amounted
to S2,4O0,000, Mr.. Moss examined
number of gamblers and other char
a,ters of the underworld The as
sistant prosecutor would not tell how
ever. what information he obtained.
Thinks Graft Was Large.
II do not think the 50 100000 graft
figures named by Jack Rose Is an eX-
aegeration," said Mr.. Moss tonight
'but the only absolute knoWlo ige or
how much 1t really amounts to is in
possession of the grafters and not the
grated. Just who the grafters are
where the money is going-is the vital
question. The arrests OF Whitley
Lewis and "Dago Frank while i'm
portant are less important than to
determine who is responsible at the
top of a system which results at the
lotion in murder.
Mr.. Moss added that he expected to
20 very, very deeply into the graft
features of the case in the course or
the grand jury investigation. the
grand jury did not meet today but
will resume its inquiry next week.
Becker Don't Talk.
Police Lieutenant Becker, locked in
