NO HoodIums' Here, Says
Official Stopping

By United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, March 20.-Scarface
Al Capone, Neopolitan heir to Chi
cago's million dollar month vice,
gambling and liquor rackets,
matched wits with his Uncle Sam
today behind the heavily guarded
doors of a grand jury room on the
eighth floor of the Federal building.
After waiting an hour in the office
Of an assistant district attorney,
Capone was taken before the grand
jury and questioned about the oper-
ations of the beer syndicate which
has debauched the once peaceful
suburb of Chicago Heights.
AS soon as word spread that Ca
pone had come back from his
Florida retreat in answer to the
grand jury summons and was at the
Federal building, loop workers found
lots of excuses to "go to the post
office"
At noon, with Capone still before
the grand jury, crowds formed at
the Adams and Clark street ell
frances to the building, milling
about eagerly and waiting for
Scarface to be brought out.
Capone found his Uncle Sam
much less impressed by his impor-
lance than we're the Chicago police
who turned out by the dozens to
escort him through hostile terri
tory.
George E. Q. Johnson, United
States district attorney, called Scar
face a hoodlum to his face and
while Capone snarled, johnson
stopped camera men from making
flashlight pictures of him in an as
sistant district attorneys Office.
I'VE don't want this Office
identified with hoodlums in any
way johnson said.
Shortly after noon Capone eX-
posed himself to machine gunners,
if any were in wait for him, when
he ran across the street to the Mar
quette building and boarded an ele-
Vator which took him to the pri-
vate office of William Waugh one
of his attorneys.
The grand jury had released him
until 2 p. m. and two police guards
were assigned to escort him to
lunch. Capone eluded his guards,
however, in fleeing from federal
building crowds and lodged through
traffic to the opposite side of the
street
