Patrick Roche, chief Investigator for State's Attorney Swanson, came upon two safety deposit boxes used ty Zuta. Their contents revealed that Zuta was a methodical man, who recorded every cent he spent for graft from 1921, when he was a dive keeper, until the day of his murder. His records, according to Roche, constitute a "who's who" of Cook County politics and crime.

Police Chief's Request William O. Freeman, for the last three years head of the police department in the wealthy and exclusive suburb of Evanston, was called to the District Attorney's office when the Investigators found among Zuta's papers a letter from Freeman asking the gangster to lend him $400. Freeman said he obtained the loan, offered to repay It but never did so. Freeman's letter to the vice overlord read as follows: "Dear Jack I am temporarily in need of four C's for a couple of months. Can you let me have it? The bearer does not know what it is, so put it In an envelope and seal It and address it to me.

Your old pal. Bill Freeman." There was a postscript which read "Will let you know the night of the party, so be sure and come."

ItUt or.i tutalailil Both Overlords of Shadv Deeds Kept Records of Financial Deals hut Chicago Acted Quickly There are a lot of persons, some in official positions, but most outside that charmed realm, who are asking these days what might have happened in New York nearly two years ago if the powers here had adopted the same tactics that were adopted recently in Chicago. They wonder, for instance, whether Arnold Rothstein's much-talked-of "books and papers," if they had ever been carefully examined, would have shown that Judges and policemen and other prominent men the city bad borrowed extensively, and under curious circumstances, from the gambler. They wonder. too, whether It would have been I possible to trace these loans and ad vances, aa the Chicago oracials have been successfully doing with those recorded In the books of Jack Zuta, notorious gangster of that city and of the Middle West. It may be that the Arnold Rothstein books would have shown things which would have proved embarrassing at the time for a great many persons.

But, of course, the contents of those books were never subjected to the white light of publicity. Files Were TJntoarhed died shortly after he had been wounded somewhere, either inside or outside the Park Central Hotel. There was not much of an investigation into his death, and the files and papers at his home and in i his office remained untouched for i two or three days after his demise. After their existence Wcame known It was 17 days before they were ex amined at all. The story of what has happened since Rothstein went the way of most men who played i fast and loose along Broadway has been told.

Even the half-hearted inquiry and the muddle made by the not-too-energetic police left hints In the air of what was under the lid. There were stories, pretty well substantiated, that there were names and addresses In the Rothstein flies. There were reports that some Judges had borrowed heavily from him, and Ex-MngLstrate Vitale, It was shown, actually did get a loan from Rothstein. Out of Picture But even though the then District Attorney Joab H. Banton promised to go deep Into those files, and to show Arnold Rothstein's connection with the throbbing pulse of the city, he never quite got around to it.

And so, with the Rothstein files com-pletcly'out nf the picture, there Is a large part of New York which is now asking, what would have happened had the Rothstein papers been handled as the Zuta papers are being investigated? Of course, Arnle Rothstein wasn't a gangster. He was a gambler but, like Jack Zuta, he had hold on the people with wtiom he did business. He also kept books. There are plenty ef evidences ef that, and those who knew him best knew mighty well that Arnle Rothstein had the names of every ene who owed him money somewhere. They may have been In those mysterious files which were never opened.

They may have been In some book or safe. But the point Is that they were eiever made public even though they most certainly existed. Parallel Is Seen It seems apparent now that Zuta and Rothstein had much in com mon lc their respective cities. Zuta was not a mini leader, according to the police of both Chicago and New York He was a sort of general manager for the Aiello-Moran com- blnation, and he roamed far and wide in his city, with thousands of "friends" on his visiting list. Those "friends" apparently handled Zuta as hla New York "friends" handled A.

R. They played cards with him and won his money If thev could. They drank with him In speakeasies and they asked favors of him. And when thev were hard pressed th merclv sidled up to Jack and told him their tale of woe He usually lent them the money. It was the ame with Rothstein There Is no question at all that a sreat manv men owed him money.

That the list which has come out doesn't Include officials is not sur prising, however. You see. that list was "lost, i ne only time that names of Rothstein's debtor came to light was when, In settling the estate, the trustees gave out a list that contained a great many names of which no one had evrr heard. Chicago Rocked Zuta'i "friends" weren't so lucky. It may be possible that the existence of hit papers was known.

In any event, shortly after his murder. the police got hold or those papers, and since then have been caus ing all aorta of embarrassments throughout the length and breadth of Chicago. They have shown that a police chief "borrowed" money, and that a Judge who, like so many New York Jurists, was Interested in building a home for his family "borrowed" from Zuta. They have shown that a newspaper editor cashed a check through Zuta and that Jack never got around to collecting the money It called for. The loans weren't always repaid, it seems, too.

They have shown clearly that Zuta. although a professional gangster and a racketeer, stretched out funeral Doctor rormarlf Wlttt tha Lata EDWIN BAYHA 613 V.nd.rbill Ave. NEVINJ 1365 I FATAL PARALLEL Arnold Kothsiem (topi and Ja.

This accusation was made in connection with an announcement that a survey of 1,438 of 2,213 newspapers had shown 56 percent to be dry 4n their editorial policy, 36 percent wet and the rest uncommitted.

Sixty-Ave percent were reported unbiased In presenting news dealing with prohibition. Twenty-six percent were luted as publishing wet cartoons. "In general," said the board, "the policy of the daily newspapers In regard to prohibition follows local sentiment, but this statement must be qualified, as there Is considerable wet support in communities where public sentiment is undoubtedly in favor of the 18th Amendment. "While the great dally newspapers of the Northeastern States are usually wet, the large number of dallies which serve smaller communities In that section give a 50 percent break to the drys.
