Gangland Empire Is Crumbling Before
 Stiff Crusade

Gurn. who had been a Capone killer; James Belcastro. "king of the bombers."
 First convictions included those of McGurn and Belcastro. Many of those named, including Murray Humphreys, fled and became fugi- tives from the law. Soon, Chief Shoemaker an- nounced another list of public en- emies" and more known criminals were arrested er escaped by flight Gunmen Flee City "But," explained Assistant States Attorney Greenville- Beardsley, If they leave town we have accom- plished something. If we can run 200 or more gunmen out of town this way, let's publish all their names"
 Included in the new list was George Bugs" Moran, leader of | the North Side gang that was al- most exterminated by the St Val- entine's day massacre in 1929. Ari- other was "Three Fingered Jack" | White, a Capone killer, tried for many crimes and twice convicted of murder but at liberty because of technicalities.
 Another was Joe Fusco, former chief of the beer department in the Capone syndicate.
 And so the war continues, for the other day Chicago sent up It's 326th criminal since 1t began ac- ti onon August l.
 Before the federal government succeeded in convicting Al Capone, Chicagos gangs had flouted the law and sneered at 1t. Supreme In his power, with crooked politicians courting his election day favors and hired killers at his command, this Napoleon of crime had risen from a cheap bawdy house bouncer to an almost impregnable position as a gang czar by means of q series of bloody killings of rivals, His profits from liquor, vice, gambling and rackets approached the fabu- lous.
 Uncle Sam Gets Enough
 In 1928, Uncle Sam got sick and tired of 1t all, Under direction of Chief A. F. Madden of the secret SeTNlCS pTdHCH Ot SflICdtO U. S, | internal revenue bureau, an in- vestigation of Capone,s income tax was begun. Daring government de- tectives actually joined his gangs and learned all about his business In 1880 the government brought to trial and convicted Ralph Ca pone, AIS brother; Jack ,Guzik Capone gambling manager; and Sam Guzik, Capone liquor man. ager. All went to Leavenworth pri- son.
 The trail led to "the Big Fellow himself. Al, indicted and arrested
 for income tax evasion, tried to
 plead guilty in return for a lighter
 sentence. This produced the ia. mour dlctum of Federal Judge
 James H. wilkerson: Tt is utter.
 ly impossible to bargain with (
 federal court"
 On Oct. 17, 1881, a jury found Capone guilty and he was sen.
 fenced to II years. In May, 1932
 his final appeal failed and he was taken to Atlanta.

ANT|SEM|T|SM
SEEN GROWING

Anti-Semitism is rising through
out Eastern Europe, according to
Lord Marley, deputy speaker OF
the British House Of Lords, who
spoke last night at the Mayflower
Hotel as president of the Ort
Parliamentary Committee. He
attributed this race hatred to
economic conditions.
. Developing this point further,
he said that it was an outgrowth
of the natural dislike of middle
men by both producers and con-
sumers. If Jews went into in
dustry or agriculture, he thought,
this feeling would diminish.
Senator William H. King, Of
Utah, who presided at the meet
ing, made a plea for tolerance.

new Treatment
FOR EXPECTANT
and NURSING
MOTHERS

When a baby is expected, laxa-
tives must not be used. Mother must
not take them as long as she ID
carrying or nursing the little ones
Doctors will tell you that laxa-
tive drugs taken by the mother are
a danger to baby. 1t is crime to
risk your baby's health. That is why
they so often advise Cream of Nujol.
This new form of Nujol is spe-
cially suitable for expectant and
nursing mothers because it does not
upset the stomach or cause cramps
and does not pass into the milk.
If you are expecting a baby, take
the new harmless Cream of Nujol
treatment night and morning. It is
kind to the delicate bowel mem
branes, and being free of drugs. it is
safe for you and your child. More.
over, it is delicious and easy to take.
Ata cost of only a few cents day ii
will make you "as regular as clock
work" and protect the health of your
child. Buy it at any drug counter.

ACTION
LAGS IN HOUSE

No action was taken today by
the House District subcommittee
on public buildings and grounds
after it had heard many support
ters of the Mcmillan bill to pro-
vide an airport site leased or
owned by the District of Colum-
bia.
Representative Howard W.
Smith CD of Virginia, chair
man of the subcommittee. in
closing the session said there
would probably be more discus
sion on the matter at a closed
meeting of the House District
Committee next Wednesday.
There was no opposition to the
measure, but several amendments
we're offered. Harry A. Fellows,
chairman Of the Arlington county
board of commissioners, asked an
amendment be incorporated to
give his territory some other
highway if Military Road is
closed by the provisions of the
bill.
He also advocated an amend
ment to prevent the purchase of
the property by the District gov
ernment, contending that a pur-
chase by the District would pre-
vent Arlington county from col
lecting taxes on the property
which at present yields about
$4,000.
Fellows was one Of the oppon-
ents Of the former Mcmillan bill,
which would have permitted the
Federal Government to lease or
purchase the airport site.
