So I would like m imjtiw to be specific and state what tornk4># organized crime. i??fl??e referring only to gamblers, or is he g<yng ont after the dope peddlers? Organized crime has been taking an awful beating, at least verbally, from Mayor Bowron for many ^ears. Whenever any critic raised his wgl^ead, Bowron wougl darkly intimate tjiat th#6tftic wastsniytEemoutjipiece of organized criminals itching to take over Los Angele^He sounded the alarm every once in a while about the overlords of the underworld marking time on the outskirts of the city, ready to rush in if hejj&wron, should be ousted. This record, dealing with organized ?╜$i??e, has I been played so many times around here it jf*o longer sends the people, so let ugJjKope PoulHii doesn't play It too often... I would shout with joy, however, if he j came up with a sound program to; rout the monsters who are peddling herein, here*. ! abouts. Actually the only organized crime, j left in Los Angeles is the dope traffic. And apparently it is so well organized it's just about impossible to cope with it.. W_2 I The County Jail is crowded to ov^owing with dope addicts. They are easy to catches j cause of the tell-tale marks on their arms, but the big guys wha are sending the stuff into this town aren't being caught. These are the gang- Isters on whom I would like to have public of- (ficials declare.war. They're the ^iminals who are menacing the peace and happiness of many a home in this area by enticing the young people | in those homes to walk the dark paths of hope- ; less narcotic addiction. m pi A couple of years ago things began looking very dark for radio.
