2 DAILY PRESS, Newport News, Saturday, August 4, 1951 Gordon Begs Police To Shoot Him As He Is Taken In N. Is Jailed For Lack Of Bond New York, Aug. Gordon, high-riding beer baron the roaring '20's, begged for a bullet to end his life when he arrested as the alleged czar of million dollar a year dope police disclosed today. The notorious prohibition racketeer, a one-time public enemy No. 1 who once toured in an armored car with bodyguards, fell to 1 knees as Federal agents and police nabbed 1 him on a dark Side street corner last night.

Grovelling before Detective John Cottone of the narcotics squad, the paunchy, 63-year-old Gordon begged: kill me, John-shoot I'm an old man and I'm through. Don't take me in for junk (dope). How else can I live? Let me John, and then you shoot me. Three other men were seized him. They and Gordon were charged with having $180,000 worth pure heroin at underworld market value, the drama-packed round-up, Cottone said one of the other prisoners, Samuel Kass, 39, made wild attempt to bribe him.

The detective said that as Gordon begged for death, Kass pressed $2,500 in cash and two diamond rings worth $8,000 into Cottone's hands. "Oh, my God, you got the Kass was quoted by the tective. this, you can have everything I got, but let 'Pop' If that isn't enough, I'll give $25,000, and if that isn't enough, I'll give you more!" But police promptly carted Gordon off to jail, where he remains for lack of $250,000 bail, Gordon could be imprisoned lite if he is tried and convicted New York, according to U. S. torney Irving H.

Saypol. Having been imprisoned three times before in New York, one more conviction would make him a fourth offender, subject to a life sentence. Saypol said Gordon had been operating an international dope racket for "several years." The prosecutor said Gordon the narcotics from the three confederates after it arrived on ships from Europe and the Far East. Gordon was the source of dope the West Coast, Saypol said, and was implicated with the dope racketeers there. Saypol did not name Gordon's leged West Coast partners.

But a San Francisco Federal grand Jury yesterday indicted three men, including two named as West Coast heads of a big narcotics ring. They are Abe (The Trigger) Chapman, William Levin, and Frank (Blackie) McKee. Saypol has identified Chapman and Levin as West Coast leaders a heroin ring. In San Francisco Assistant U. Attorney Joseph Karesh said three men were West Coast narcotics representatives for Gordon.

Karesh declared "Chapman was the Pacific Coast drop for the Gordon gang. Levin and McKee were top lieutenants of Chapman." He said Chapman, supplied by the national ring, operated out of San Francisco for 18 months. "It was tremendous operation, involving several million dollars." The San Francisco grand jury still is receiving evidence, Karesh said, with dozens of other persons involved. At their arraignment today, bail was set for the three San Francisco men at $25,000 total of bail was set for the three others seized with Gordon. Kass, who gave his occupation "gambler," held held in Benjamin Katz, alias Benjamin Kas.

Eighth Army Headquarters, Korea, Saturday, Aug. 4-(P)-Determined Allied limited attacks yesterday threw Chinese Communists off two hills overlooking the strategic Hwachon-Kumsong road on the central front. Chinese Communist resistance was stubborn but as the attack mounted. On one hill, Allied forces counted 156 enemy dead and wounded, an Eighth Army spokesman said. There were small clashes on the eastern front.

Fifth Air Force night fighterbombers destroyed or damaged 160 Communist vehicles on supply roads leading to the front. Heaviest night traffic, pilots reported, was north of Pyongyang, the North Korean capital, and the Wonsan sector on the east coast. The Fifth Air Force, which flew 224 sorties despite bad weather, reported one formation of four F-80 Shooting Stars used jellied gasoline to help ground troops take a hill on the central front near Kumhwa. East of Kumhwa, where Allied troops advanced up to two and a half miles on a seven-mile-wide front Thursday, forward patrols ran into brisk resistance from small Red units. Fourteen B-29 Superforts bombed Red supply points at Chinnampo, port for Pyongyang.

Marine airmen, observing the first anniversary of their operations in Korea, attacked Red supply centers along the east coast. In Washington the U. S. Army estimated Red casualties since the war began now totalled 1,228,854. This was an increase of 7,420 in four days.

The Pyongyang Red radio, 85 usual without confirmation or detail, claimed the Reds Friday had I surrounded and annihilated two Allied regiments, shot down three Allied planes, and sank an American destroyer, Reds Continued From Page One admitted grdugingly that Allied air power had "influenced" Communist ground action. Nuckols said also that the U.N. envoys insisted that military armistice should maintain the approximate over-all balance of all military power that exists if and when an armistice becomes effective. He said Joy decalred ground forces alone did not constitute a complete balance of power. Naval and air strength must also be considered, he said.

AP correspondent Don Huth, after hearing Nuckols' briefing, put it this way: "In other words, the Allies are horse-trading. For giving up their naval and air strength they want more real estate to ensure good defensible positions." Admiral Joy spoke briefly at the opening of the two-hour, 35-minute session. But Nam Il didn't weaken his demand for a buffer zone straddling Parallel 38. In a long statement, Nam asserted the Allies were insisting on strong defensive, positions "deep in our territory." Nam repeated the statement 14 times, almost word for word. The Red radios at Peiping and Pyongyang said the Allies demand a cease-fire zone far north of the present battlefront.

This has prompted speculation that the Communist eventually might agree to the present line and then boast that the United Nations had backed down. A Newburgh, N. doctor on vacation at Virginia Beach yesterday morning discovered the body of Pic. Rudolph N. Rezsnyak, Fort Eustis soldier who drowned Wednesday while attempting the rescue of a fellow swimmer.

Fort Eustis officials said Dr. Paul Watson, of RFD No. 1, Newburgh, was swimming at resort when' he discovered the body, They said he towed the corpse in to the beach and called the coroner. be Rezsnyak was on a three-day pass at Virginia Beach when he went to the rescue of a swimmer in distress. The swimmer was rescued, but a two-day search for the soldier's body failed.

The Transportation Corps soldier was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew L. Rezsnyak of Glenfield, Funeral arrangements were incomplete. Judge J.

J. Temple today called for a special grand jury probe of numbers operations in the City of Hopewell. His order for the grand jury to meet Augst 13 was entered at the reuest of Commonwealth's Attorney Ligon L. Jones, Jones issued a statement this afternoon in which he said he had asked Judge Temple for a special grand "to investigate the operation jof the numbers racket" here. The prosecutor said Augst 13 was the earliest available date.

Asked how many persons would be summoned to appear before the grand jury, Jones replied there would be a "voluminous number." The court's action came after Governor Battle, traveling in southwest Virginia, had told a reporter the State would accept the challenge of a self-styled Hopewell numbers operator if local authorities failed to enforce the State's anti-gambling laws. "We will give local law enforcement officials a reasonable time to act," the governor said, explaining the commonwealth's policy. "If they fail to do so, we will take appropriate action." But the governor declined to comment further on a statement by W. H. (Billy) Sampson of Hopewell that only the federal government can stop his numbers operations in defiance of state ani local gambling laws, In an interview with a (Richmond Times-Dispatch) reporter Sampson freely admitted operating the numbers game in Hopewell, and contended the game was honest, But he said newspaper accounts of the scope of the operation were "greatly Sampson took exception to a published report that gambling takes $1,500,000 a year out of Hopewell, He said such a business would reuire the services of 500 "policy writers," and said there are about 40 such working in Hopewell.

In "numbers" the player takes a 1000 to shot at winning a 500 to 1 payoff. He said, too, his records had been scanned by a federal official and found in order. He said a large portion of his money came from his real estate and restaurant businesses here. Earlier today Jones, asked for comment on Sampson's statement, had said "no official action at this time" is being taken to call a special grand jury to probe the numbers operation. Shortly afterward, however Attorney General J.

Lindsay Almond, said Jones had telephoned him and asked for a conference on the matter. Almond said. he agreed to meet with Jones on Monday. Almond sided with the governor that the State had laws under which Sampson could be prosecuted. THE DAILY PRESS CO CONGRATULATES Mr.
