Note — Ancther of Drew Pearsen’s series of columns on national crime networks and Cos- telloism.) | | ! | | Y mSHINGTON — One year ago’ “two Justice Department lawyers, Max Goldschein and Drew O'Keefe, | began studying a stack of crime reports three feet high gathered from various cities of the USA. Thus, very slowly at first, began the current probe of the nation’s far-flung gambling networks. Actually, the Federal Government | cannot investigate gambling. It‘\ has the power to investigate nar- white' slavery, immigration violations and income taxes, but; although the public doesn't realize it, these are iclosely meshed with the great gambling syndicates, un- til the organized underworld of the nation is now integrated and di- vided in about the same way that a railroad changes crews and en- | gines at division points. | Two powerful officials have tried | to block this investigation. One was; inside the U. S. Treasury in Wash- ington, the other high up in the | State of California. | i Probe Gets Results } Despite this, however, the probe | pegan to bear real fruit when, last week, 16 members of a California narcotics gang were indicted. Leader of the gang is Joe Sica, and his arrest illustrates how close- y organized crime is integrated from coast to coast. | Sica is a New Jersey boy and a | part of the original Costello gang, BRIDGES CASE CODEFENDANT DENIES IS RED SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27—(P— Henry Schmidt, defendants in the Harry Bridges perjury trial, swore on the witness stand today he never was a Com- munist. Asked if he ever thought of Bridges as a member of the Com- munist party, he answered “no.” Bridges, head of the CIO Long- shore union, was indicted for per- jury, accused of swearing falsely in his 1945 citizenship hearing that he never was a Communist. Schmidt and J. R. Robertson, both union officials and Bridges' witnesses at the naturalization hearing, were indicted for con- | spiracy. He was the first of the defend- ants to take the stand in the fed- eral court trial which opened No-| vember 14. Schmidt, 51, came from Germany in 1911 by way of Canada. He was naturalized here about 23 years ago. Vincent Hallinan, chief defense attorney, predicted yesterday the defense case might be completed in two weeks. 'WESTERN POWERS 'MAY START RUSSIAN COUNTER -BLOCKADE (By the Associated Press) United States officials in Berlin said today the Western Powers may impose a counter-blockade against Eastern Germany to break the “baby klockade” imposed by the Russians at Helmstedt truck check roint. These officials predicted some sort of economic reprisa! would be threatened against the Russians in order to break the stranglehold on Berlin, lying deep in the Soviet zone. A second sharp protest yesterday from American, British and French; officials against the slow-down at Helmstedt was apparently ignored {by the Russians. Moves to end the Russian slow- down of trucks will probably wait lthe return of U.S. High Commis- sioner John J. McCloy. MecCloy, on a flying visit to the United States, said yesterday that if the Russians again clamp down a | complete blockade the Allied air- lift will roar again. He was reported to have sized up the latest Russian move as part of a major plan to sabotage West German recovery. A quarter of the people of West i Berlin are jobless.

Robert E. Turner, about 55, was | found collapsed -over the wheel of | his automobile by Deputy Sheriff emmett Newland yesterday morn- |ing. The car had been driven to | the side of highway 84 near Rill- |1to. | Turner had been shot through the Iright temple and instantly Kkilled. |A new .38 caliber revolver was on | his lap. Officers believe the bullet that killed Turner was the first ever fired from the weapon. Turner’s hands were relaxed over | the steering wheel. A pocketbook | was lying on the floor of the car. | It contained Turner’s identification |papers but no money. About $30 lin cash was in the man's pockets }and his watch had not been touch- ed. An additional $1,550 in travel- jer’s checks and cash was in his suitcase. Mexican In Custody | Newland took into custody a 24- |year-old Mexican national who is| |claimed to have illegally entered the United States at Nogales. Turner recently left the employ| of the U. S. Department of the Interior, He had been stationed at Anchorage for about eight years. It is understood he had planned to ienter business in Portland with a friend, Vernon S. Taylor. Investigating officers now believe Turner had been in Tucson for |about two weeks. Newland said that Turner bought a .38 caliber stub-| nose revolver here on Jan. 11. The| {gun found in his car was a long- inosed weapon. Guns Exchanged Newland said, “it looks as if the person who killed Turner left the| murder weapen behind and took Turner's stub-nose revolver with/ { him."” The manufacture of the gun found in the car showed that it |was originally shipped to a dealer! {in Boise, Idaho, in 1947. Turner was wearing Kkid gloves at the time of his death. An exam- ination of the gloves at the Uni- | versity of Arizona failed to reveal |any trace of powder burns.

Plane Missing in Nort FISHERMEN VOTE MERGER WITH ILWU Cooperation Planned Un- fil Longshoremen Vote -Report Close Tally SANFRANCISCO, Jan. 27—(@— The CIO Fishermen's Union today embarked on a program of close cooperation with. the CIO Inter-| national Longshoremen'’s and Ware- | housemen’s Union look ng to mer- ger into one organization of some 20,000 members. Officers of the fishermen’s union, in convention here, last night an-} nounced their members had voted to merge with the longshoremen. At the same time, the officers put | forward a plan for a working re-| lationship short of actual merger. The ILWU memtership still must | vote for a merger before it could be carried out. The California state ILWU convention last April approve? such a move. Merger was proposeu to tae fish- ermen at a convention in Belling- ham, Wash., last year, and delegates there voted to submit it to the membership, Officers declined to cive any information on the voting other than that it approved the merger. There was an unsubstan- tiated report that the vote was 4,028 for merger to 3473 against. The union claims 25,000 members. After a long closed session yes- terday, President Joseph Jurich ot the Fishermen's Union handed newsmen a written statement, which said the executive board proposed to carry out the mandate of the membership by strengthen- ing their longstanding relationship with the ILWU, using ILWU fa- cilities such as its research de- parment, regional offices and na- tional legislative office. Further, they proposed asking permission to seat a “fraternal representauve"' on the ILWU executive board. Both the fishermen and the| longshoremen are out of favor with the national CIO. They have been accused of Communistic leanings, and with deviating from CIO policy. They have denied both charges. The fishermen expect to conclude their convention today. One task still refore the delegates is election of officers. They adopted a reso- lution yesterday urging that regu- lation of commercial fisheries be transferred from the Department of Interior to the Department ot Commerce. INGRID.

Fort Nelson is 600 miles farthey south on the Alaska Highway flight route. More than a dozen American and Canadian planes were reported in the search today, with others stand- ing by or preparing to take off, The flare report raised hopes of searchers, but officers at Anchor- age said they might have been frrm a truck in distress along the righ- way. FLARES NEAR WATSON LAKgE An officer flying to Aleska re- ported the flares near Watsun Lake, which is south of Whitehorse near the British Columbia boundary. The Anchorage base said he told of circling and dropping his own flares and receiving an answering flare. Search officials at Anchorage indicated they were not discount- ing the possibility that the flares might be from a truck connected with the current military maneuv- ers in the Yukon.
