Host of Gangster
Convention Dies
In N.Y. Hospital
Johnson City, N. Y. - (LTD -
Joseph Barbara, the "sick
friend" 60 gangster dropped
in to see at his Apalachin,
N. Y., home Nov. 14, 1957,
died of a heart ailment
Wednesday night without re
vealing the secret purpose of
that underworld convention.
Barbara's illness had pre
vented his questioning by
state and federal investigators
who have indicted and jailed
a number of the nation's big
gest "name" criminals for
allegedly lying or refusing to
talk about his hilltop bar
becue party. -
Barbara, 53, had been in
Wilson Memorial hospital in
critical condition since a heart
attack on May 29.
Wife at Bedside
At his bedside were his
wife, the former Josephine
Vivona of Endicott, N. Y., his
daughter, Angeline, and his
vtwo sons, Peter, a University
of Buffalo student, and Jo
seph Jr., who had been asso
ciated with his father in a
soft drink bottling and beer
distributing business and had
attended the Apalachin meet-
The sons said early today
that their mother had been
placed under sedation and
that funeral plans would not
be made until she is able to
decide on them.
License Suspended
.The Sicilian-born Barbara
gave up both his business and
his home after state police
rounded up his guests, alleged
by authorities to be the lead
ing figures of a who s who
in the Mafia." The business
went with the suspension of
his state license as a result
of the party. The home was
sold last month for $130,000
to a developer who announced
plans to convert it into a tour
ist attraction.
Apalachin neighbors are
i, protecting this plan as an of
fensive "shrine to crime."
Russian Ballet
Declared Unfair
Los Angeles - (DPD - The So
viet Union's famed Bolshoi
Ballet, which played to capac
ity audiences in Los Angeles
last month, has been accused
of unfair labor practices by
the Musicians Guild of
America.
The charges were filed
Wednesday against nine de
fendants, one of them the
Russian group. The guild
said the Bolshoi discrimi
nated against the employment
of 10 local musicians in a
video tape production of the
ballet.
Local sources said the
charges might be connected
with a jurisdictional struggle
between the guild and its bit
ter rival, the American Fed
eration of Musicians.
The other defendants in-
eluded two companies handl
ing the taped performances
of the ballet..
Gloria Swanson
Protests Tax Claim
Washington - (LTD - Actress
Gloria Swanson has filed a
protest against government
claims that she owes $39,
457.69 in back income taxes
and $5,829.91 in penalties.
Records showed today that
a petition filed by her law
yers argued that the Internal
Revenue Service should have
allowed a variety of deduc
tions claimed by Miss Swan
son as business expenses for
1949 through 1953.
The petition noted the
actress movie comeback in
1949 in the film "Sunset Bou
levard," and her ventures in
plays, movies, benefit shows,
TV programs, dress fittings,
business conferences, inter
views and dress designing.
These activities, it said, re
quired "the conversion of
practically all aspects of her
life into a business venture.
Beulah Fizzles
As Hurricane
Brownsville, Tex. (DPD
Tropical storm Beulah fizzled
as a hurricane but still man
aged to rumble angrily across
the Mexican coast about 200
miles south of Brownsville
Wednesday night.
The doughnut-shaped cen
ter of the storm at first ap
peared to threaten much of
the South Texas Gulf coast.
But it ' hovered harmlessly
Tuesday night, and then, like
a tired derelict, washed shore
ward against a sparsely popu
lated area of the Mexican
coast. At last report, it was
whipping the tropical region
with winds up to 50 miles an
hour.
