HIGGINS Executive Director Rogue Valley . Manor Medford, Oregon since he served 60 days in 1917 and 1927 for carrying a pistol. But, like Capone, he has now been caught on a federal charge mastermind ing a nationwide narcotics ring, smuggling in heroin through Cuba, Puerto Rico and Mexico. The code of the dread Maf ia is bound up in the Italian word, "omerta." It means "silence." Genovese proved himself a devoted follower of the code last week when he took the Fifth Amendment 150 times before the Senate Rackets committee. One question he refused to answer was wheth er he belonged to the Mafia. But he is believed to have headed the society in the U. S. for at least 10 years and, as Mafia chief, Genovese is considered also kingpin of the 65 underworld figures who gathered in a fantastic "crime convention" last No vember at Apalachin, N. Y., to consider problems of the $20 billion yearly business in narcotics, vice, gambling and other rackets. Police believe he was con nected with the murder last year of Albert Anastasia, the one-time executioner of Mur der, Inc., who was himself shot to death in a barber chair. And Genovese's "protege" and one of 36 co-defendants on the narcotics charge, Vin cent (The Chin) Gigante, was only recently acquited of the murder attempt on Frank Costello, head of the gam bling syndicate.
