EAP[]NE’S BRUIH[R What Do You Know About Washington? GUILTY INTAX CASE Ralph Faces Possibility of 42-Year Prison Sentence. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 26.—Another of the Capones has heard a jury brand him “guilty.” Ralph, “Bottles” in gangland argot and eldest of the younger brothers of “Scarface \l,” stood before Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson's bench yes- terday and heard himself convicted of violating the income tax law. Guilty on Seven Counts. Guilty on all seven counts of the indictment, the jury found; chief of which was the one charging Ralph with making false statements in an offer of compromise. In sentencing the younger Capone on May 16, if the formal plea for a new trial is denied, Judge Wilkerson under the law can impose a prison term of 42 years by making the sentences on each of the seven counts Tun consecutively. Custom in the past, however, has| se_sentence on the major | Capone’s case, his false the compromise offer. The penalty for this is 10 years and $10,000 fine. Pending sentence, Capone is at liberty on bonds of $25,000. Others to Be Tried. The verdict against Capone is the first major result of the Government's drive against income tax violators in | Chicago. Others to come up for trial are Frankie Lake and Terry Druggan, brewery owners and gangland “gentle- men.” Raloh's conviction makes the second against the Capones within little more than a week. In Miami, Fla, where “Scarface Al” has opened his Palm Island home, a still younger brother, Albert, was sentenced to six months in jail on a technical vagrancy charge. This is being appealed.

EVANSTON, I, April 26.—Joseph D. White almost went into the hard- ware business in the old home town of Macon, Ga., but right now he's back here on a grand larceny charge. White was working in the Evanston store of Peter A. Lemoi up to last Feb- ruary, when the idea of going into business for himself presented itself. So he went back to Macon. Pretty soon he wrote an Evanston garage keeper, saying, “I wish you'd ship me the pack- ing cases stored in your garage.” The garage man, uncertain whether to send by freight or express, asked Lemol's advice. Lemoi took a peep into the boxes and the extradition of White followed. Lemoi said he objected to White stocking his new store with goods taken plecemeal from the Lemoi shelves. Wave That RIVALS Ttalian Stock in Washington Growing. By Bertram Benedict How many people do you know in Washington who were born in Italy? Probably a few, because there are in ‘Washington over four and a half thou- sand men, women and children who were born in the land now dominated by Il Duce and his Fascists. They make up almost one in every 100 inhabitants here. Forty years ago there were compara- tively few people of Italian birth in the United States, but now_there are well over a million of them. Indeed, 30 years | i, ago there were only a thousand Italian- born in Washington. Up to the Civil War only some 5,000 | Staf Italians had come to America. From 1870 to 1880 about 5,000 were coming every year (these and following figures include Sicily and Sardinia as well as Italy proper). Then the great tide of Italian settlement in America began in earnest. From 1880 to 1890 about 30,000 Ital- ians settled in America annually. They | became our sixth largest racial group from abroad. In the following decade they became the largest, and from 1890 to 1900 some 65,000 Italians were set- tling in the United States every year. Quota Cut Drastically. With the dawn of the twentieth cen- tury over 200,000 persons of Italian birth were settling in the United States every year. About 85 per cent of these were southern Italians. At the same time about one-third of this number were emigrating back to Italy. In the last year before the outbreak of the World War we admitted 285,000 men, women and children from Italy and 85,000 of TItalian birth went back to Italy to live. After the war we restricted the num- ber which might come from Italy to less than 4,000 annually, or about 2'2 per cent of all admissible from Europe That figure has now been increased to 5,800, or almost 4 per cent of those who may come from Europe. The total number who came from all Europe be- fore the war was almost 1,000,000 an- nually. It is at present restricted to slightly less than 150,000 a year. Of all the foreign-born in this coun- try, those of Italian birth now make up 12 per cent and it is believed that the new census figures will show this to be the largest foreign-born group in the country. Most of our settlers from Italy came to the United States too recently for the total Italian stock to be much larger than the Italian-born group. (By “Italian stock” is meant those either born in Italy or had at least one parent who was born there.) ‘Thus, although the Italians are probably now the larg- AMERICAN RADIATOR CO.

Between three and four of every hundred le in the United States are now of Itall stock. Eight Per Cent in Philadelphia. In Washington there are over 4,500 of Italian birth and 9,000 of Italian stock, the latter making up about 114 per cent of our total population. The Ital- n stock in Washington compares as follows with the Italian stock in other ll.rg': cities in this part of the United g Philadelphia, 8 per cent; Wilmington, 6 per cent; Pittsburgh, 5 per cent; Bal- timore, 3 per cent; Richmond, 1 per cent; Norfolk, 1 per cent, Italian-born are our third largest foreign-born group in Washington, but I‘L:Hkun stock is our fifth largest foreign stock. Of the 1,600,000 persons of Italian birth in the United States at the last census, 390,000 were in New York Cll;:f, 65,000 in Philadelphia, 60,000 in Chi- cago and 38,000 in Boston.
