Al Copone's Boys Stoy
Much Alive in CHICAGO

They are far removed from
the cesSpool of vice activities"
said Chicago police Supt. o. w.
Wilson. Many play the
role of respected citizens, their
air of responsibility strength
ened by residing in expensive
homes in the most fashionable
neighborhoodS, placing their
children in the best schools
and donating generous gifts to
the worthiest of causes"
There are two reasons for the
gangsters' success, according to
the Chicago experts: Fear and
public apathy.
Time and again, we have
been frustrated in our efforts
because of the terror with which
this group is regarded, not only
by their own people, but by a
considerable percentage Of our
legitimate citizens" said Capt.
Duffy.
The tolerant and indifferent
attitude which shrugs off gang
land murders, wide open gamb-
ling and other forms of vice
and the corruption Of public
officials is the same attitude
which deprives us of key legis-
lation, keeps corrupt officials In
office and withholdS from law
enforcement the testimony and
support it needs to combat
organized crime" said Mr..
Morris.
Stark evidence Of the power
of the underworld, Supt. Wilson
noted, is the fact that, Of 976
gangland Sayings in the Chi
cago area since 1919, only two
have been cleared by the arrest
and conviction of the killers.
Gangland executioners, he
added wryly, seem to enjoy odds
of 500-1 sgainst being caught.

Half Of Red China's jet air
force is grounded for lack of
Russian-made spare parts, &C.
cording to Far East intelligence

Thus the ability Of Red Chi
ma to fight a major war has
been reduced dramatically. The
balance of power in Asia has
shifted, therefore, In favor OF
the free world-and Russia.
Reports Of the Gripping Of
half Of the mainland's Jet force
were first heard by this report
er during talks recently with
Nationalist Chinese officials in
Formosa. Similar estimates
have been made by qualified
American officers.
Red China has an estimated

ROME.
President Kennedy's recent
speech declaring that in this
dangerous world a foreign
policy based on "black-and-
white choices Of good and
evil" Is "one Of retreat and
not strength" has caused
considerable discussion in
Europe.
Political circles here feel
that today. more than ever,
there must be q clear con-
ception Of what is good and
what is evil. We have had
sufficient experience since
Munich to appreciate that
a gray area" as Mr.. Ken
nedy suggests, is fraught
with serious dangers. 1t Is a
mist in which freedom can
be wrecked.
In contrast with Mr.. Ken
nedy's words at Salt Lake
City was the 'fblack-and-
white" speech Of Gen. Charles
de Gaulle at Lyon where he
pronounced what amounts to
a new declaration Of indie
pendence Of France from the
two enormous power blocs"
which were born at the end
of World War II. De Gaulle
reiterated Frances devotion
to her allies; reStated that
France wants to rem ain
closely associated with the
Atlantic alliance but insisted
that France must remain
strong on her own II she Is
to help the alliance. He in
sisted that the France which
has rejected appeasement Of
Russia must not accept the
dictatorship Of the Anglo
Saxons.
With these words he placed
in proper light the United
States Governments rela-
tionship with its Western
European allies.

living in New York. who was
born in Russia. And who left
there in infancy. Congenial
artistic spirits to be sure can
come from anywhere, Nairobi
and Long Beach, but not to the
degree Of congeniality achieved
by the Messrs. Beckett and
Schneider.
They met intellectually and
personally when Beckett's
waiting for Godot" was Great
ing its first furore in this So
called English speaking coun-
try. 1t was a case Of delight at
first sight, but the view was
eventually blocked by a pro-
ducer from whom Beckett could
not escape, but Alan could. And
did.
so, "Godot" went first to
Broadway without Alan's direc-
ton. which it needed badly, as
a later production directed by
him proved. Their affinity was
further proved by such later
Beckett Schneider works as
"Endgame" and Happy Days"
Come next autumn, Alan
(now directing "Threepenny
Opera" at Arena Stage), will
be directing Beckett's newest
work, one of his most ambitious.
This one bears the striking
title, "Play," one which no one
ever seems to have thought of
before. On one less than second
thought. this seems to be a
truly startling oversight over
the entire period from Sopho-
cles to Edward Albee.
Alan will be going to Paris
In latish May to discuss PLAY"
with Beckett, after which they
will go together to West Ger
many to see a production Of the
work now headed for Broad
way.
Before then, Alan may well
have carried off an Antoinette
Perry award, the Tony, for
Broadway's best avant- or ar
riere-garde direction this sea-
son, that Of who's Afraid Of
Virginia Woolf?" He is deemed
the strongest candidate for the
honor. and the play a strong
one for the Critics Circle
award.
The potential Of this, plus his
next seasons Beckett, and one
Of Brecht's unfamiliar plays
which he also will direct on
Broadway, could give Alan a
monopoly on avant garde stag
ing in this country.
Could. but surely won't. since
monopoly is one Of the targets
Of avant gardism.
