(The st. Paul Daily News)

lie 81. Tdui bihs i>S"SI
Leon Gleckman, credited with being
st. Pauls political boss for number
of years, has been found guilty of in
come tax evasion.
Unless he is successful in an appeal,
he will spend the best part of Is
months in Leavenworth prison and
pay a fine of $4,000 plus the costs of
his trial. There is also pending a
civil tax claim which may cost him
another 100000.
Gleckman's conviction this time was
speedy. indicating little doubt in the
minds of the jury. 1t was in contrast
to the disagreement which marked
his first trial.
This will be his second sojourn in
federal prison-the first having been
under an 1S-month sentence for viola
ton of the liquor laws.
1t was prohibition which made
Gleckman rich and also brought about
his troubles. The conniving which
was necessary to break the dry law
and amass a small fortune opened the
way for the political maneuvering of
which he was accused.
He is paying the price now for
those big easy money days.
