Lucky Luciano Page #3

as a "useful" person.

From this document,

it appears that he's had such credentials

"for services rendered to the

armed forces of the United States. "

You released him from jail.

You could've also give him a medal!

We also gave you the aids of

the Marshall Plan, though!

Also from socialist countries

the morphine arrives to the U. S.

Yugoslavia, for one, is very good at

stopping small boats of Italian fishermen

the moment they enter its

territorial waters. But when..

But nobody notices certain

"whaling ships", like that owned by..

Mr. Rosario Mancino, from Palermo,

which lands on the Dalmation

coast every week!

Sit down, Charlie.

It's no use trying to put all

of the blame on the Italians.

This game isn't played in Rome or Naples..

But in New York and Washington.

What do you mean, Mr. Anslinger?

There's a campaign against us.

While you were chasing

Luciano around Italy,

here they're trying to discredit us

of the Narcotics Bureau.

They say we're paranoid, megalomaniacs,

who arrest people without proof.

And that we invented the whole story of

Luciano and of drug for political reasons.

What was invented is the absurd hogwash

on Luciano who won the war in Sicily.

But after the Kefauver investigation,

the Americans should know better.

Now the democrats are saying Dewey

allowed the drug ow into the U. S.

When he sprung Luciano from jail.

Dewey doesn't like any mention of the

Luciano matter and he's fighting back.

And with the republicans

back in power, Dewey now

has some very powerful friends.

The Attorney General, for one,

and.. and the Secretary of the Treasury,

to drop a few names.

And who do we have?

- Each other, Charlie.

So be careful.

Dewey is forming his own commission

to "investigate" Lucky Luciano.

So they say.

He's trying instead to prove that what

we told the Kefauver committee was a lie.

And that we have no real evidence

against Luciano in Italy.

So, Lucky's a war hero and we're

the villains. Who'll buy that crap?

The judges! The same judges

who are still on the bench.

The ones that Frank Costello

made appoint when he, Meyer Lasky

and Luciano were still

pulling strings in New York.

But now the republicans are in office.

The mafia makes no distinctions

between parties. They have no party.

They're always on the side of power.

During Truman's time they backed Truman,

and Dewey was fighting them.

Now Dewey has the power

and Kefauver is fighting them.

And where are we?

In the middle. And if we're not careful,

we'll be getting it from both sides.

So what do I do?

You keep on chasing Luciano..

And Dewey will keep on chasing us..

And Kefauver will chase after Dewey.
