PAGE TWO CUED IN PROBE 43 Officers and Four Lawy ers Said Protecting $100 Million Annual Syndicate New York, April 9 IP) Two extraordinary grand Juries, working under the direction of Special Assistant Attorney Gen eral John Harlan Amen in Brooklyn, banded up today tlx separate presentment naming 49 police officers, Including a retired deputy cmet inspector, together with four lawyers. Amen said that the paid police protection of a $100,000,000-8-year gambling syndicate with a legal department composed of expert attorneys was disclosed by the presentments. Only First Chapter Exposure of this alleged organ ized gambling syndicate, com posed of the operators of policy games, dice games, lotteries and bookmaklng establishments, was characterized by Amen as only the first chapter of his Investi gation during the past 11 months of information and complaints that members of the police de partment were selling "protec tion" to the policy, bookmaklng and general gambling racket in an amount exceeding hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. Two of the presentments were handed up to Supreme Court Justice John MacCrate and the other four to the appellate divi sion of the second department. . "There is in existence today in the police department an organized system of graft and corruption which operates on clty-wlde scale," Amen said in a statement. "Its roots are so deep and the lines along which it operates so well-fixed that despite frequent changes of personnel in all ranks Its activi ties continue with little If any let-up."
