HOWLETT INDICTED WITH CAPONE MEN Supposed Millionaire Head of Printing Company Lived in $100,000 Home. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 22.—One of the 68 beer peddlers, truck drivers and aides indicted with Alphonse Capone 10 days ago for liquor law violations was George A. Howlett. ‘Today’s Herald and Examiner said internal revenue department operatives, in gathering the Capone evidence, had learned Howlett lived in & $100,000 resi- dence in the Long Beach, Ind., Summer colony and was known as the millionaire official of a Chicago printing concern. Howlett, the newspaper said, enter- tained at the Long Beach Country Club and was a lavish host at his mansion. The revenue operatives placed How- lett near the top of the Capone organi- zation. They said such “big shots” as Joe Fusco and Jack Delaney took orders from Howlett in the beer distribution. The newspaper said A. P. Madden, chief of the intelligence unit of the revenue department, had been investi- gating Howlett's income for several years. In 1929, the revenue operatives said, Howlett lived in a North Side Chi- cago hotel and belonged to a North Shore Country Club. Robert E. Neely, acting internal rev- enue collector, the newspaper said, dis- closed the Government had levied a tax of $52,000 against Howlett’s income. ‘The name of the printing concern with which the indicted Capone aide is con- nected, was withheld. None of the others indicted with “Scarface Al” has been arraigned. Some, including Howlett, have not been apprehended. ‘The newspaper said Howlett, then known as “Hollis,” was indicted in In- - dinanapolis with George Remus and 38 ::i::rs in the Jack Danlels distillery RETAIL MERCHANTS’ BODY Hurt in Race SPEEDBOAT DRIVER THROWN INTO WATER.
