This cut will' tie the hands of the trust-busters at a time. when the nation’s larg- est corporations are becoming so fat with defense contracts they | threaten to drive thousands of ! small businessmen to the wall.

They plan a new gov- ernment organization composed of longshoremen and stevedores, who will be regular government Civil Service employees—like postmen— and thus not permitted to strike. The Pentagon believes this will insure protection for military sup- plies in the event of future labor trouble on the waterfront.

MAFIA SMUGGLING RING It has been kept out of the news- papers, but immigration agents have been ordered to round up “hund- reds” of Sicilian desperadoes. be- lieved smuggled into this country. They have been aided and protect- ed by the powerful Mafia, the secret underworld society that holds a mysterious control over the nation's top racketeers. The original tip to be on the lookout fo rthese Sicilian bandits came from the army n two years ago. Warned a secret army report: “Many hundreds of mem- bers of bandit gangs have been ‘landed in the United States cland- estinely.”. . .They have been “arriv- ing at almest every port on the east coast, sometimes being taken off in small boats before the ship docked and at other times being taken off by members of the crew who were also Sicilians.” Full story is told in a recent confidential report by C. H. Pen- nington, chief immigration investi- gator for New York. It reads: | “The bandits usually went to' Egypt complete political backing, if Egypt will organize the Arab states into an all-out cold war against | Britain.
