He once headed the gang of which Capone is chief. The Government alléges that Capone falled to pay taxes on a six-year in- come of $1,038,654 derh from his liquor, gambling and vice interests. There are six felony and two misde- meanor counts in the indictment. If he is convicted on all of them he will face a maximum sentence of 32 years and a fine of $80,000. A conviction, with Capone on his way to a cell in Leavenworth, Kans,, within a few weeks, was predicted by Federal officials as the outcome of the gang chief’s challenge to the Government to prove him gullty. The defense, how- ever, has not disclosed its plans. Capone pleaded guilty to the charge two months ago, later withdrawing the plea when it became certain that Federal Judge to any arrangement with the prosecu- tion whereby Capone would receive a short sentence in exchange for admit- ting his guilt.

Judge Wilkerson also sen- tenced Capone’s elder brother, Ralph, to three years in Leavenworth Prison for tax fraud. This conviction recently was upheld by the United States Cir- cuit Court of Appeals, leaving the United States Supreme Court as Ralph's only hope of escaping punishment. Michael Ahern of Capone's counsel has given no indication he would at- tempt to delay the trial by asking change of venue, although he has said |in court that Capone regarded Judge ‘Wilkerson as prejudiced.
