cussion with MEROLA in the presence of Special Agent in Charge

time MEROLA stated he, MEROLA, was recently

amiami. At that ld

advised by GUY

MENDOLA, a hoodlum and known thief of Chicago, that the outfit,"

referring to the criminal underworld, had a Federal Agent "on

the payroll in Chicago." According to KENNEY, MEROLA did not

learn from MENDOLA the identity of the Agent, nor the particular

agency involved. KENNEY stated that as an apparent attempt to

prove this statement MENDOLA stated the Federal authorities had

two individuals in Chicago as informants, both of whom had first

name VITO.

According to KENNEY, MEROLA had no additional informa-

tion concerning the same other than that furnished above, which

MEROLA had just learned from MENDOLA, who is in Miami at the

present time.

The above is being furnished to the Chicago Division
