gathering and youths scuffled
with the officers. -

protests in their Prince Ed
ward county town Sunday
but demonstrations were ex
pected to resume today.

Infamous Silence
Barrier Is Broken
By Joseph Valachi
Washington - OIPD - The Jus
tice Department says it has
for more than a year been get
ting invaluable details on the
operation of nationwide
crime syndicates from a jail
ed mobster who broke gang
land's infamous barrier of si
lence. A Justice Department
spokesman said the informer,
identified as Joseph Valachi
of New York, has given de
tails of how crime bosses op
erate a web oi vice known
as "Costa Nostra," or "Our
Thing." He has been naming
names and has pinpointed
crime operations in 15 cities,
the spokesman said.
Valachi is expected to ap
pear later this month before
the Senate investigations sub
committee. Details of what the Justice
Department believes is a ma
jor break in the war against
organized crime were first
disclosed Sunday in the Wash
ington Star by reporter Mir
iam Ottenberk. The Justice
Department later confirmed
the story.
Serving Life Term
Hie spokesman said Val
achi, 60, who has a record
dating back to 1918, is serv
ing a life term for killing a
fellow prisoner in Atlanta
Federal Penitentiary when he
mistakenly thought the man
had been sent by the syndi
cate to eliminate him.
Valachi began talking in
June of last year and has been
under super-tight security
since then to protect him from
gangdom s executioners. His
present whereabouts is a
closely guarded secret.
It is the deadly vengeance
of organized crime upon the
informer that has made crack
ing the syndicates so diffi
cult. Although 60 known
gangsters were arrested al a
plush rural home near Apa
lachin, N.Y., Nov. 14, 1957 in
what was known to be a sum
mit conference on crime, none
of the participants would tell
officers any more than that
they all happened to drop in
on the host, the late Joseph
Barbera, at the same time be
cause he was ill.
Now the Justice Depart
ment says, Valachi has pro
vided the first inside infor
mation on the crime meeting
at Apnlachin. He has told that
the meeting was called by
Vito Gcnovese, 66, whom he
named as kingpin of the syn
dicate, to gain support for
plans to kill mobsters Frank
Costcllo and Albert Anastasia
and to fire a number of less
er syndicate hirelings.
Anastasia Killed
Anastasia was shot lo
death by professional gunmen
n a Manhattan barber shop.
Costcllo was wounded in the
head in a New York hotel
lobby but survived although
he steadfastly refused to talk
about the shooting.
Gcnovese, 66, now Is serv-
ng a 15-year sentence in the
Atlanta prison but still sup
ervises the syndicate, Valachi
told the department.
Cities named by the in
former as crime centers are
New York. Detroit, Buffalo,
Philadelphia, Chicago, Bos
ton, Providence, San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, Cleveland,
St. Louis, Pittsburgh, New
Orleans, Kansas City, Miami
and several places in New
Jersey, the justice spokesman
said.
Investigators were told that
the "Cosa Nostra'' runs nar
cnlics. gambling and loan
shark operations, extorts from
businesses and labor unions
and invests the profits in
legitimate businesses. It op
erates on the old Mafia for
mat and members are linked
by blood oaths and family
connections
The Justice Department
said Valachi was not in the
lop echelon but ranked fairly
high in the syndicate when he
was arrested in November of
1959 on a narcotics charge.

Renew Rules
Labor Secretary
Has Suggestions
For Settlement
Washington - WPli -Railroad
industry representatives met
with Labor Secretary W. Wil
lard Wirtz today in a renew
ed attempt to settle the work
rules dispute through collec
tive bargaining.
Wirtz called the meeting to
discuss his "suggestions" for
a settlement which would
head off a nationwide strike
now threatened for Aug. 29.
Union representatives stood
by to meet with Wirtz as soon
as he completed his talk with
the industry representatives.
Meetings Held
Intermittent meetings on
the issue were held at the La
bor Department Saturday and
Sunday. A union spokesman
said the sessions were design
ed to "clarify" the suggestions
advanced by Wirtz last Fri
day. The spokesman said the sug
gestions contained the labor
secretary's ideas on the two
main issues in the dispute -the
necessity of a fireman
aboard diesel locomotives and
the composition of the crew
on switching and yard trains.
The spokesman said Wirtz
suggested areas which might
be the basis for renewed at
tempts to negotiate a settle
ment of these issues. Other
sources cautioned, however,
against hope for a quick set
tlement of the dispute. An in
dustry spokesman agreed with
this appraisal.
Kennedy's Proposal
The railroads have taken
the position thai only legisla
tion can solve the dispute.
President Kennedy has pro
posed to Congress that the
Interstate Commerce commis
sion be made the arbiter but
in testimony before the Sen
ate Commerce committee,
which concluded hearings last
week, labor witnesses bela
bored the proposal as compul
sory arbitration and argued
that collective bargaining
still could save the day,
