CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3. the press, returned to the Los Angeles
airport in a 3-36 bomber borrowed from cne of his friends in Mexico,
a Mexicen importer and exporter. I know thet surplus equipment can
be purchased for orivate anc other usage, but why does an importer
want a B-36 bomber? Hets a iexican, but in what business? SINATRA
is the close friend of Moretti, Adonis, Capone, cestello, and
Luciano, and now comes to light that he has as a friend a kiexican
importer. ‘hat goes on? Is tne bomber being used for narcotics
across the border? SINATRA would certainly know whots-ewho to whom
to deliver. There was no mention of a pilot either, The papers
said he returned in a bomber he borrowed from the Mexican. He knows
now to fly, had a private plane, but why would he want tc know how
to fly a bomber, if he actually did? it's no mean task and if he
dozs know he must have had anything but a sound and healthy reason
for wanting to know how.
YSINATRA te my mind constitutes just as much of a criminal as his
odious friends not only by association with them end dope addicts
but, whet is much worse, by his participation in their activities.
Of course, he owes his career to them in no uncertain way and also
owes his support financially (outside of his career) at times to
them. He can't possibly come out and say he's innocent of all this.
The press gave an account about a year-and-a-half ago of his visit
to [Italy when he attended Luciano's parties and read about the
delightful inscription (the "Mercury article will tell you) he had
put in the gold cigarette case he geve Lucianc. This SINATRA is
quite something, isntt he?! Yet he's walking around free and is
permitted: to remain on. top, where's he definitely anything but an
example to youth. Why isn't sometring done about this undeserving
and worthless individual? From where I sit, he should be in jail
or at least out of the public life he enjoys so freely. The
photographer has filed a complaint against him, but will anything
come of it? Not with SINATRA's ‘'friends' behind him! Where were
the police at the airnort that they did net see him deliberately
drive his car at a person and isn't there a cause for arrest when
there's an attempt at manslaughter? ‘What goes on anyway? He jammed
on the orakes just in time taen yelled: 'Next time I'l] kill youl!
I'd hate to see the newsman killed or injured, but it's honestly
too bad that SINATRA was able to jam on the brakes in time to preven
something more serious than brushing the man's leg happening. It
would have been cause for putting this scurvy character where he
rightfully belongs and to think that he's receiving the advlation
of the public and the idolatry of the teen-agers when he is the very
living symbol of everything the Government, the press, the radio
{tne very network which vroduced such an cutstanding program on
narcotics and the criminals in the field, even interviewing Moretti
