    378 Obviously, the possibility cannot be dismissed, although it can hardly be said to have been established. At this point, it is, in your words, Mr. Chairman, perhaps only a little more than a "suspicion suspected," not a "fact found." The committee decided early in its investigation, as soon as it realized that a Mafia plot to assassinate the President warranted serious consideration, to assemble the most reliable information available on organized crime in the United States. The details of this phase of the committee's investigation will, of course, appear, hopefully in full, in its final report, a report that will consider the background of organized crime in America, the structure o£ the Mafia in the early 1960's, the effort by the Kennedy administration to suppress the mob, and the evidence that the assassination might have been undertaken in retaliation for those efforts. To scrutinize the possible role of organized crime in the assassi- nation, the committee early brought on one of the country's lead- ing experts on the subject. He is Ralph Salerno, whose career as an organized crime investigator with the New York City Police De- partment goes back to 1946. Mr. Salerno has since retired from the New York City Police Department and I would note that on the day of his retirement, the New York Times was moved to comment that he perhaps knew more about the Mafia than any nonmember in the United States. It would be appropriate at this time, Mr. Chairman, to call Ralph Salerno. Chairman STOKES . The committee calls Mr.

  • GCHS NEWS Things Done and Things to Come
    GCHS NEWS Things done and things to come. July 15, 2011: Dear Friends, GCHS is very happy to announce the publication of Orval Allbritton’s new book: The Mob at the Spa: Organized Crime and Its Fascination with Hot Springs, Arkansas. Please join us for its official debut at the Convention Center, Room 201, from 4-6, Friday, July 29. You can have Orval sign your copy of the book, enjoy delicious refreshments, and even sit in Al Capone’s favorite chair from the Southern Club. The Mob at the Spa is a 270-page soft cover that tells about mobsters who came to Hot Springs from approximately 1920 to 1965, including some of the biggest names in the underworld. Vacationing here, they patronized our shops and hotels, took the thermal baths, and gambled in our casinos. In his book, Orval separates fact from fiction, presenting what can be documented about the mobsters’ connections to the Spa City. In the process, he relates fascinating and little-known stories of their visits to Hot Springs and their connections with its citizens. Did Al Capone use a secret tunnel between the Arlington Hotel and the Southern Club? No. Did anyone try to assassinate him while he vacationed here? Yes. The details of that attempt as well as Capone’s Hot Springs’ activities and connections are explored in the book. In addition to Al and Ralph Capone, Orval discusses John Torrio, Charles O’Bannion, Lucky Luciano, Bugsy Siegl, Frank Costello, Albert Anastasia, Meyer Lansky, Joe Saltis, Mickey Cohen, Sam Giancana, Carlos Marcello, Joseph Valachi, and others.
