MAFIA GAMES
===========
By Sherman H. Skolnick
----------------------
The Hotel, Restaurant, Bar-Tenders, and Gambling Casino workers,
in some places, have a so-called Union. For many years there have
been stories how that union was controlled by the Mafia. The
union boss has been Edward T. Hanley. And the union was always
tight with Jim Thompson, going back to the time he was Illinois
Governor, as well as tight with Paul Simon as U.S. Senator from
Illinois and Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware.
And highly corrupt Dan Rostenkowski, when he was a Congressman
from Chicago, naturally, praised this union. Members of the union
were reportedly cheated out of proper wages and pensions, and by
the union bosses padding their own payroll with their cronies.
Before he was elected as a Congressman from Chicago, Jesse
Jackson, Jr. reportedly was a heavily paid so-called organizer
for this gangster union. He was asked if he knew Hanley. Jesse
Jr. said he did not know.
Maybe Jr. also did not know that his father, Jesse Jackson, Sr.,
for many years owned a garbage truck business, Crosstown
Scavengers, which unloaded their stuff in a mafia-owned dump on
the far south side of Chicago.
Substantial amounts of union funds were reportedly plundered by
gangster businesses in Nevada, Georgia, and Illinois, as so-
called "loans".
One of the slickest tricks of all is to take over a mafia union
while pretending it is a reform movement -- and to continue
business as usual. For example, Jim Thompson and his gang of
corrupt federal judges and other public swindlers took over the
Teamsters Pension Fund in Chicago (including Federal appeals
Judge Ilana Rovner, former U.S. District Attorneys in Chicago Dan
K. Webb and Anton R. Valukas). For that purpose, Big Jim and his
mob reportedly arranged to assassinate Pension Fund wizard Alan
Dorfman. It was whitewashed by Nicholas J. Bua when he was
Chicago Federal District Judge. (Bua went on to cover up the
infamous Inslaw Affair. He is reportedly the head of the Grand
Mother Lodge of Propaganda Due [DOO-ay] for North America; P-2,
the infamous free-mason society, Italy, France, England, and
U.S., dedicated to overthrowing representative governments by the
"politics of tension", such as bombing the train station in
Bologna, Italy, killing 86, and blaming it on the current
dissidents.)
And so now, look who took over the dirty game of the Hotel
Workers Union. Why, a three-person, so-called Review Board. The
members are ex-governor Jim Thompson, Kurt Muellenberg, a former
head of the Justice Department's organized crime and racketeering
division, and Roman Catholic Archbishop James Kelleher of Kansas
City. (Chicago Tribune, August 29, 1995.) [CN -- Previous
Conspiracy Nation, Vol. 7 Num. 28]
Hey, did any of these big-time crime busters ever investigate the
Vatican Bank Chief, Bishop Paul Marcinkus of Cicero, washing
dirty money through the partly-Vatican-owned Continental Bank of
Chicago and Marcinkus-dominated First National Bank of Cicero?
And the Chicago suburb of Cicero has long been a mafia enclave.
Marcinkus' crony has become State Treasurer of Illinois, Judy
Baar Topinka. (She praised Marcinkus on a public access Cable TV
Show.)
A similar trick was done some years ago when the former head of
the Organized Crime Division took over the gangster gambling
casino in the Bahamas on Paradise Island. Mafioso were knocked
off and their game taken over and continued.
We gave you related details on our recorded phone commentary and
on our public access Cable TV Show, "Broadsides": How Jim
Thompson heads up the massive smuggling of dope into the Chicago
area. Called "China White", high purity heroin, it is brought in
through small airports in Chicago suburbs, Lansing, Joliet, and
Prospect Heights. [CN -- See "CIA and the Dope Business" archived
via (a) telnet prairienet.org (b) logon as "visitor" (c) enter
"go citcom" at the prompt.] The huge dope loot is washed on the
night shift reportedly through gambling casinos in Joliet. One of
the directors of a gambling casino there is reportedly fronting
the dope money laundry for Chicago Mayor Richie Daley as well as
the Mercantile Bank of Hammond, Indiana. The highly corrupt DEA
is silent about all this.
Jim Thompson has been chairman of the huge law factory, Winston &
Strawn, a secret section of which reportedly are dope traffickers
worldwide. (Some of the firm's personnel have admitted the same
to us, following our Cable TV expose', 11/94.) And Jim Thompson
and his federal court gang of judges are tight with the mass
media. For example, Big Jim has been a director of the Chicago
Sun-Times. The media bosses have their own reputed mafia unions.
Channel 7, WLS-TV in Chicago, has a long history of reported
links to gangsters, going back to the reputed criminal
enterprises, the Balaban & Katz Theater Chain.
