Kennedy said Tuesday organized crime has had "more success' in recent years in mak-i ;ing contacts with public officials, Ilabor unions and lawyers "par- ;iicularly lawyers." '. "And more and more gangsters are going into 'respectable' busi ness," he said. . Kennedy said the organized 'crime infestation has reached in to "all major cities, not only Chicago, but Detroit, St. Louis. Kansas City, New York with the possible exception of the West Coast, especially Los Angeles." In Los Angeles, he said, police and local officials along with fed eral authorities have done the best job of halting racketeering. Kennedy acknowledged in re sponse to a newsman s question that Hot Springs, Ark., was "wide open." 'Yes, we're working with offi-i dais there and plan some action, probably within six months." said Kennedy. The slot machines in Hot Springs were shipped down from Chicago." The attorney general said fed eral officials were combatting crime under a "different concept" than previously used, largely be cause of the crime legislation passed by Congress a year and a half ago. Organized crime can be wiped out, he said, "but we're nut close it will take many, many years." He revealed that the fed eral government had "intensified" efforts to curb the syndicated lawlessness. He said the answer to orga nized crime primarily was honest local law enforcement. He declined to elaborate on what the "change in the center of focus" was, but he did say federal agents were paying more attention to gambling. Mey Kids!

Humphrey said today that GOP critics who claim the administration's test ban propos als would leave a "big hole" un covered are just exposing a "big hole" in their logic. Humphrey was replying to a claim by Hep. Craig Hosmer, D Calif., that the test ban proposal would let Russia conduct under ground nuclear tests undetected in a "big hole" embracing two and a half million square miles of the Russian interior. If our position is as bad as Hosmer says... If-it is as weak and full of holes, then why don't the Russians accept it?" Humphrey wondered. . He called the Republican crit icism "irresponsible, misleading and mischievous." Hosmer, he said, based his contention on as sumptions "which are false."
