Y “I’m going to smash your gang, if I have to do it alone,” he said. He imposed fines of $200 on six of them. Four others were ordered held for investigation. The rest were dis- charged. Before they left he revealed why they mistook him for a “pal.” He re- lated a story which explained why squads of the detective bureau swept through the district last night, arrest- ing 31 suspects. . Each evening, during the last two or three weeks, the Italian-born judge told how he went to his home, chang- ed into a battered old hat, a shabby suit, run down shoes, a shapeless over- coat with a button missing—and slipped out of the basement door. Then he stepped into an ancient automobile and rallied away to the west side “valley” region where reigns the gangsters he intended to investi- gate. By loafing in pool rooms and cigar stores, he soon made casual contacts, borrowing a match -or lending ‘one, tossing an occasional pair of dice. Slowly. making his way, he finally became acquainted with members of an “athletic club.” While loitering there he heard things that revealed the whole structure of the 42 organi- wation. “It’s in two parts,” the judge said. “One group is composed of veterans. ‘The other is made up of boys in train- ing for criminal careers, boys rang- ing from 12 to 18, serving their ap- yprentice-ship, getting ready to join Ythe older crowd. “In the older crowd the work of the gang is distributed, each man as- signed according to his tastes and tal- ents, They are specialists, but they are knit together and have their legal department ready to come instantly to the rescue to those who get into trouble.” “Conditions are horrible. Business men in the district are being robbed and terrorized every day and they dare not name the criminals to the police. But they told me, not know- ing I was a judge. There are going to be plenty of arrests.” Judge Borrelji said the information he had collected was turned over to the police for action.
