Since then. the police have known a
great deal about the men who rule
Little Italy.
They know, for instance. that the
Italian underworld recognizes no laws
against gambling. drug trafficking
white slavery. or liquor selling. These
activities are controlled entirely by
boss men" OF the district. who earn
a luxurious livelihood by licenses and
tributes exactee from tho owners of
such enterprises. Occasionally. they
go In for blackmailtng or kidna ping.
but these are usually resortcd to in
order to terrorize someone who has
deficd their authority. Thru Ralph
the police learned that there were
three big gangs or trusts" that con-
trollod all of the big Italian colonies
OF the city. One OF them was the
Mulberry street or downtown gang,
one was the Harlem gang and the
third was the Navy street or Brooklyn
gang. Each OF the first two was
ruled by three padrones. while the

gaged in Construction

Cincinnati, May 1.-THE United

Laborcis. with its membership of
about zoo. 900, cannot be reinstated
in the American Federation of La
Dor until it has turned over to the
building trades union its members
now engaged in station construc-
ton work.
This decision was made :oday
by the executive council of the
building trades department of the
federation.
The railroad shop iaborers' union
was suspended December 1919. be-
cause of an alleged disregard for
the jurisdictional rights of the
building trades organizations.
j. b. Malloy grand vice presi-
dent of the maintenance of way
union, said he would Immediately
take the matter up with the other
grand officers of the organization.
Officials of the union declared
tnat tne matter WCNlu pIODhDly
be fought out at the convention in
Denver in June and the ultimatum
of the council disregarded for the
present.
The executive council of the
American Federation of Labor,
which Ia also in session, decided
to appoint a committee to investi-
gate the jurisdictional dispute be-
tween the International Alliance of
Stage employees and the building
trades union. The building trades
council protested to the federation
council that the alliance has not
given up Jurisdiction over con-
work in the moving pic
ture studios on the Pacific coast
and demands suspension of the
stage employees unless they dis
further Entertainments
The alliance denied the charges
and claims it has turned over the
of this work to the
trades.
A committee will visit Los An
Gtles and report to the executive
council at Denver.
