His function was to try to get customers for the service on the West Coast. There was "some indication that Rosselli "muscled his vay into the racing news service, Kefauver related. Rosselli testified he formerly owned an interest in the Agua Caliente race track near Tijuana, Mexico, and was a part-owner of a gambling ship with Dragna In 1930-31, Kefauver reported. Roselli and Dragna were arrested on one occasion as they left the gambling ship with Charles Fischetti of Chicago, Capone gangster. They had a large sum of money and several revolvers in their possession.

"Rosselli had a wide acquaintance with the Chicago Capone group and with racketeers in New York and elsewhere," Senator Kefauver said. In Movie Production Now. "In recent years, he has been an associate motion picture producer with the Eagle Lion Studio, which produced 'Canon City, 'He Walked by Night and 'End of the Santa Fe Trail. Rosselli was one of five Capone gangsters who were paroled in August 1947 after serving one-third of 10-year sentences for an attempt to extort $1,000,000 from the movie industry.

is not an American citizen, Kefauver pointed out. Dragna came to the United States in 1898, returned to Italy, came back to the United States In 1914 and has been in this country since. He has engaged in gambling and bootlegging, Kefauver related. He was owner of Universal Sports News of Los Angeles, a racing news firm which was a customer of the Trans-American service. When Trans-American went out of business, after the Capone gang got control of Continental Press Service, Dragna sold Universal Sports News to Illinois Sports News.

This deal was arranged in 1947 by Edward Maloney, Los Angeles representative of the Illinois service. Paid $500 a Week. After the sale, Dragna testified, he received $500 a week from Illinois Sports News for supplying racing information from West Coast tracks. That arrangement ended last February when California authorities halted transmission of racing news service by wire. The Senate committee learned that Dragna went to Chicago to find out why he was cut off the payroll last February.

"Yet he says he knows various Chicago racketeers and gangsters in New York, Wilkinson' Assembly placed the matter on its opened and found to contain $129,000, Butkus said that was all that was in the safe in the Lierman avenue house and that he was on his way to deposit it in a Belleville bank because "it was too much cash to be left lying around." Mr. and Mrs. Butkus were married secretly in Colorado Springs, in 1936.

Their marriage was not known, even to their neighbors and her relatives, until Mrs. Butkus filed suit for divorce on grounds of intemperance four days before her death. He managed her East Side property before their marriage. The estate now is involved in litigation. Under the terms of fauver committee retry the entire Ragen case." Drury stated he had "a vital witness" in the Ragen murder, but gave no details, Kutner continued.

However, he quoted Drury as saying that a safe robber now serving a sentence in the States-ville (111.) prison had information about the Ragen case and about the $1,000,000 robLery of Brink's, money transportation firm, in Boston last January.
