| CHICAGO, Oct. Is. (U.R)-John-
ny Torrio, who taught Al Capone
how to be gang chief, is living a
quiet life on Long Island on the
wealth he amassed as a Chicago
underworld ruler who had sense
enough to abdicate, he told the
! United Press in an exclusive inter
view today.
Say, I wouldn't come back to
Chicago to stay if you'd give mo
the city hall, the federal building
and all the hotels in the Loop" he
I declared.
Would I go back in the racket?
Don't kid yourself I'm through.
Whoever takes Al Capone's place,
providing he is convicted in court,
will get the same thing Al got
don't care who takes the job. It's
a tough one to hold and whoever
gets it will have a lot OF sleepless
! nights"
Torrio, brought here on govern
ment subpoena TO appear at the Ca
pone income tax fraud trial, spoke
through uneven teeth with trace
of a lisp A man Of so or SO with
hair beginning to gray, a smooth
shaven ruddy face and a certain
gravity of manner, Torrio would not
be taken for a former gang big
shot" with about as much power as
Capone attained.

with a delicatessen business, or a
lumber yard, or some small office
job. Only his pin-point eyes dis
turb that picture OF him.
"As a matter of fact" he said,
I'm living off my investments. I
made plenty OF money and I saved
IT, Now I'm letting the money work
/ for me.
Il pay my income tax every year.
1 During the last five years, my tax
{ has ranged from $500 to s3000.'
Torrio fled Chicago six years ago
after gunner had shot him down in
gang feud. He said he had not
been in contact with Capone in that
! time until he came here under sub
poena before the trial started.
He was asked his definition Of
racketeer.
Hes a guy who is kicked around
by the police" said Torrio He
spends his money like a tinhorn
gambler and he usually dies Of lead

Even if the law doesn't get you,
there is always the one way ride.
Don O'Banion got it, Hymie Weiss
got it. Dingbat OBerta got it.
WAS it worth all that? III say
it wasn't. I'm going TO stick to my

I got the woman, Mrs. Fra ter, to go that way again. To see her was possible, but it was neces- sary to be close to the window, very close indeed. You found that, Richmond. You had to press your face against the glass But it did not suggest anything to you. Duck worth explained that he drew the curtains for the sake of privacy, but why did he peer so carefully up and down the garden? Was it not to see that it was safe for him to slip out?"
 Probably it was" said Rich mond, but few would have thought of it. I did suspect him for a mo- ment when he mentioned the wom- an. l thought he might have imagined her. But it proved to be true"
