Speaker 11 (04:16):
Pleasantries to business gentlemen. The question we have met to

That Bomba's gotta be banging their head?
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Please a little consideration.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Hey girl, don't be interrupted, Harry.
Speaker 11 (04:30):
Sorry, apologies accepted. Now, then this new further has been
investigating some matter which might prove embarrassing coul We follows
if all the facts should become norm I am referring
in particular to the stuff he is investigating about the
numbers business. Now, since we decided to get smart and
form the syndicate.
Speaker 8 (04:50):
Made out of go ahead, ow are you boys?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
The Shultz?
Speaker 8 (04:59):
Yes, but it's the Dutchman.
Speaker 13 (05:01):
I've come all of my good friends here, the people
I've been doing business with for years. How come they're
holding councils without the Dutchman?
Speaker 9 (05:06):
Please act like a civilized being.
Speaker 11 (05:08):
Will you act like you didn't grow up in a
barn or somewhere?
Speaker 8 (05:11):
And you how are you?
Speaker 12 (05:11):
My peral?
Speaker 8 (05:12):
What is this?
Speaker 11 (05:13):
This is a matter concerning New York City, mister shows,
not New Jersey or Newark, which is why you weren't invited.
Speaker 13 (05:19):
By the way I heard it was he was going
to discuss the new guy in the DA's.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Office, which is correct, but please no name a DA.
Speaker 13 (05:25):
He done a lot of bad things to me. I
think I ought to be in on a discussion.
Speaker 11 (05:28):
Frankly, I didn't think you'd be interested. But since you
see fit to come busting in here, you can stay.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Yeah, just like it, Harry Tacks. One thing though, what's
that You're.
Speaker 11 (05:37):
Not on the border of the syndicate, mister, so you
don't get the vote.
Speaker 13 (05:41):
What is this a bunch of lead pipe woods and
you're trying to make like big business man big operators.
Speaker 12 (05:46):
We are businessmen Dutch. You can sit down and shut
up and get out here, all right. That's more like
it now than Harry you were saying.
Speaker 11 (05:56):
Ever since that runaway grand jury took out mister Dodge,
we have had great difficulties keeping the data's office in line.
We got plenty of Greece, but nobody appay it to
It's no fellow. He's incorregible. So that the question is
what are we gonna do about him?
Speaker 13 (06:10):
Just give him a treat but he wouldn't forget that
to all.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
That's what I say.
Speaker 12 (06:13):
The bomber's gotta be banging ahead.
Speaker 11 (06:16):
Please, gentlemen, a little consideration, thank you. You see, mister Shultz,
times are changing. We don't operate with those tactics anymore.
This is big business. We got to operate with the
modicum of intelligence.
Speaker 8 (06:32):
Modicum? What kids with that? Their monicam?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
It means any bit?
Speaker 13 (06:36):
All right?
Speaker 8 (06:37):
Why didn't he say so?
Speaker 13 (06:38):
Any bit intelligence that I can understand, But modicam?
Speaker 11 (06:40):
Please, mister shuts, let me remind you you're here as
an observer only.
Speaker 8 (06:46):
Oh, please proceed.
Speaker 13 (06:47):
I was carried away a modicum.
Speaker 11 (06:51):
Yes, operate with intelligence. It seems to me that there
is a definite possibility that we may have to resort
to dress stick measures in dealing with this fella. Yeah,
and so I am deputizing Albert here to investigate the situation.
This is no ordinary contract, Albert. I want you to
figure out how it can be done so nobody gets
(07:12):
fingered and nobody gets hurt excepted for that fellow.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, we'll do the perfect contract.
Speaker 13 (07:18):
Yeah, and I'll help you. I got a lot of
ideas and experience in that line. No, Harry, listen, you
don't know how much I hate that now daya.
Speaker 11 (07:24):
And oh no, this calls for finesse, and please no names.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Albert.
Speaker 11 (07:31):
I'm counting on you, gentlemen. We'll meet here in one
week for Albert threeport. And in the meantime, don't worry
about the future, you know the old saying, keep smiling.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
I'm thirty four, twenty three, seventy fifty twenty three, forty
eight hundred ninety one and four hundred and fifteen sixty seven.
And that my good friend winds it up.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
For the night.
Speaker 14 (08:12):
Really a very nice little take inch, if I do
say so myself.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Yeah, well, just don't you plan on taking any of
it for yourself.
Speaker 14 (08:18):
I have a dabba who can be so stupid. You
didn't speak to me like that, ginch I know mister Schultz.
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Yeah, but you don't know him like I know. Yeah,
what's the food on the table.
Speaker 14 (08:27):
For mister Schultz? He's back from the meeting.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
I was hoping he'd stay in New York see a
show something alight?
Speaker 14 (08:34):
Boss, Hello, mister Schultz.
Speaker 8 (08:35):
Boye, okay, but I'm gonna what's itally?
Speaker 14 (08:37):
Are very good, mister Schultz. Thirteen thousand, five hundred and
sixty one dollars and thirteen cents for the day.
Speaker 8 (08:43):
That's because of you have a dabba.
Speaker 14 (08:46):
It was nothing.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
Yeah, so they think I'm slipping, do they? Yo? Ginch?
What do you take?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Well? I think you're on top of the world, don't.
Speaker 13 (08:53):
Yeah, you know why? Because I use my brains. When
I ain't got him, I buy him. Those knuckleheads in
New York, these big business men, they got a numbers racket. Me,
I got a numbers racket. Mind pays off the players
would hardly ever. Yes, it's paying off all the time.
And why because mine is a period.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
That's why.
Speaker 13 (09:09):
Because I used my head, I went out and bought
me aba dabba here.
Speaker 14 (09:11):
Oh, but I was glad to get the job. I
like the money up.
Speaker 13 (09:15):
I think, why isn't the numbers paying me more money?
Because it's too honest?
Speaker 8 (09:19):
That's why. It's like a bad slot. But it slot's
bad and paying off too much? What do you do?
You fix it?
Speaker 13 (09:24):
So I went over to that college there and I
bought me a student, a mathematical genius. I said to him, kid,
you'll fix this and I'll take care of you.
Speaker 14 (09:32):
You were very generous and was really a fascinating problem.
Speaker 8 (09:35):
Ginch, what's the matter with South Foyona.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
The school kids? We're losing their business. One of their
principles is working against an runners.
Speaker 13 (09:43):
Oh, principal. I hate principles. I had a principal once.
His name was Jesse Conton.
Speaker 8 (09:49):
Did you ever hear them like the Limburg case?
Speaker 13 (09:50):
Yeah, yeah, that's the one. He used to beat my
ears up. And I was a defenseless kid too. But
I'll tell you what, Ginch, you give this principle a workout.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Oh jeez, an old man.
Speaker 8 (10:01):
I don't think you heard me.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Good, Ginch, I hurried your Dutch. You're only working guys
over well, you got plenty of guys who do that
sort of stuff.

lot of those kind of tricks, Kinch.

Speaker 13 (13:45):
Okay, mister business man. Okay, let's hear the reporter.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I want quiet. I don't want to have to tell
us twice here it is subject under discussion. Is no
da This guy has got it twenty four hours around
two plain clothesmen all the time. They watch his building,
they escort him everywhere. There's no way to get at him,
I mean.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
No ordinary way.
Speaker 8 (14:11):
It was a truck.
Speaker 13 (14:12):
You get a big garbage truck. See it comes feeding
down the street.
Speaker 15 (14:16):
Do we have to have you ejected?
Speaker 8 (14:17):
All right, all right, go on.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
My cousin he's got a little kid, five years old.
So what I did?
Speaker 4 (14:24):
I borrowed this kid, brought him a tricycle. See every
morning when his fella comes walking out with his body,
God's there. I am Joe Cittizen, typical square, taking my
morning physical with my little boy right there by the door.
Speaker 15 (14:36):
Very nice.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Yeah yeah, he comes walking out. He smiles at the kids.
So the tips has had to me. I swear that
guy is going to be a politician someday. And then
he walks down to the corner drug store.
Speaker 15 (14:49):
Drug store.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Yeah yeah, and the way I figured, everybody in city
hall is trying to tap his phone. So he uses
a drug store his public pay station. He goes inside,
the two bottom gods keep out in the street. He
stays in and averages three minutes alone see and he
comes out. It's in a city limousine and goes downtown.
Speaker 15 (15:07):
Very nice information of it. Now, how do you work it?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
He's very precise.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
This fellow goes into the drug store at eight oh five,
precisely every morning. The fellas who are handling the contract
yet there early, bang the druggists with silences. Wait, he
comes in, gods are outside, He goes into the boot,
they bang him, stroll out. We got two two and
a half minutes to get away. The guns get left
(15:33):
in the drug store.
Speaker 15 (15:33):
That's got listen of it.
Speaker 11 (15:35):
I think it's a very compact, unique way to handle
the contract. And I only wish I still had you
working for me in dish in your old capacity.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Incidentally, the guns I already arrange for a pair of
brand new, untraceable government forty five's. We lifted him out
of a crate down at the Federal ware.
Speaker 11 (15:52):
Yeah, it's perfect, nice work out of it. But I've
been giving this entire matter a lot of thought during
the past week. Really, I I tell you honestly, I
haven't slept. Please, gentlemen, I beg of you are a
little consideration. All right, all right, all I care you
(16:12):
won't listen.
Speaker 15 (16:14):
That's better now, you know me. I got only your best.
Speaker 11 (16:16):
Interests at heart, and I have come to the conclusion
that it is in all our best interest that this
fellow from the day's office days alive.
Speaker 8 (16:24):
Harry, what are you Puggy or something? This guy's gotta go?
Speaker 16 (16:28):
All right, all right, the boys, you can just quiet
down and listen to me.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, Lucky, what do you say?
Speaker 15 (16:35):
I say, Harry's ride the guy leaves.
Speaker 16 (16:39):
You know, we gotta look at this with the long view.
We gotta think of the syndica.
Speaker 13 (16:45):
You and a syndica can drop dead. Albas got the
perfect plan.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
Let's use it.
Speaker 16 (16:48):
Nayson shirts, I want you to shut up, and now
Harris a ride. And here's why, what can this da investigate?
The man and nothing else?
Speaker 15 (17:01):
All right, So we're.
Speaker 16 (17:02):
Gonna let him. We got a nationwide business to take
care of. We ain't gonna sacrifice that just to serve
a couple of times square number runner can stare at
the can.
Speaker 15 (17:14):
They seem to get to come first?
Speaker 12 (17:16):
Yeah, but that fellow he's investigating pretty high up. He
could he could even get some of the fellows in
this room.
Speaker 16 (17:22):
No, No, any lawyer will tell you they can't get
an indictment unless they got a solid case, and they
can't get a slid case unless they got two witnesses.
And that is where we pass out of the contracts.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
You mean, instead of taking this one fellow, we're gonna
have to take ten, maybe twenty.
Speaker 16 (17:42):
Yeah, yeah, And here's why. Take this fellow and it
becomes a federal case. It gets out of Manhattan, he
gets out of hand, and you boys are from a
Chicago to Milwaukee in a case.
Speaker 15 (17:56):
See know what I mean? And you too, do you
don the one?
Speaker 16 (18:01):
This investigation is spreading all over in New Jersey.
Speaker 11 (18:05):
I'm sure mister Schultz is beginning to see.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
The light Now let's take a vote.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Anybody against the notion that we let the little fella
go ahead with his investigation.
Speaker 12 (18:15):
That seems a long way around the bunk. I have
to kill all those witnesses instead of just one fella.
Speaker 15 (18:20):
We can get them before they started to be news.
There's no problem.
Speaker 12 (18:24):
And there I'm with you.
Speaker 8 (18:27):
Well I'm not leaving us, mister Schultz.
Speaker 13 (18:29):
Yeah, yeah, I'm going back to Jersey with the air
don't stick from Chicken.
Speaker 15 (18:33):
I take it you don't like it the way we
are paray.
Speaker 13 (18:36):
Look, Albert here comes up with a perfect contract and
you fancy pants or too chicken to carry it out. Well, listen,
lucky Albert, Henry, Ola, Harry, all the rest of you.
Maybe there's somebody in this world who went to a chicken.

Sorry, apologies accepted. Now, then this new further has been
investigating some matter which might prove embarrassing coul We follows
if all the facts should become norm I am referring

numbers business. Now, since we decided to get smart and
form the syndicate.
Speaker 8 (04:50):
Made out of go ahead, ow are you boys?
Speaker 2 (04:58):

Speaker 8 (04:59):
Yes, but it's the Dutchman.
Speaker 13 (05:01):

I've been doing business with for years. How come they're
holding councils without the Dutchman?
Speaker 9 (05:06):
Please act like a civilized being.

Will you act like you didn't grow up in a
barn or somewhere?
Speaker 8 (05:11):
And you how are you?
Speaker 12 (05:11):
My peral?
Speaker 8 (05:12):

Speaker 11 (05:13):

Frankly, I didn't think you'd be interested. But since you
see fit to come busting in here, you can stay.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Yeah, just like it, Harry Tacks. One thing though, what's
that You're.
Speaker 11 (05:37):
Not on the border of the syndicate, mister, so you
don't get the vote.
Speaker 13 (05:41):
What is this a bunch of lead pipe woods and
you're trying to make like big business man big operators.
Speaker 12 (05:46):
We are businessmen Dutch. You can sit down and shut
up and get out here, all right. That's more like
it now than Harry you were saying.
Speaker 11 (05:56):
Ever since that runaway grand jury took out mister Dodge,
we have had great difficulties keeping the data's office in line.
We got plenty of Greece, but nobody appay it to
It's no fellow. He's incorregible. So that the question is
what are we gonna do about him?
Speaker 13 (06:10):
Just give him a treat but he wouldn't forget that
to all.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
That's what I say.
Speaker 12 (06:13):
The bomber's gotta be banging ahead.
Speaker 11 (06:16):
Please, gentlemen, a little consideration, thank you. You see, mister Shultz,
times are changing. We don't operate with those tactics anymore.
This is big business. We got to operate with the
modicum of intelligence.
Speaker 8 (06:32):
Modicum? What kids with that? Their monicam?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
It means any bit?
Speaker 13 (06:36):
All right?

Please, mister shuts, let me remind you you're here as
an observer only.
Speaker 8 (06:46):
Oh, please proceed.
Speaker 13 (06:47):
I was carried away a modicum.
Speaker 11 (06:51):
Yes, operate with intelligence. It seems to me that there
is a definite possibility that we may have to resort
to dress stick measures in dealing with this fella. Yeah,
and so I am deputizing Albert here to investigate the situation.
This is no ordinary contract, Albert. I want you to
figure out how it can be done so nobody gets
(07:12):
fingered and nobody gets hurt excepted for that fellow.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, we'll do the perfect contract.
Speaker 13 (07:18):
Yeah, and I'll help you. I got a lot of
ideas and experience in that line. No, Harry, listen, you
don't know how much I hate that now daya.

Speaker 14 (08:12):
Really a very nice little take inch, if I do
say so myself.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Yeah, well, just don't you plan on taking any of
it for yourself.
Speaker 14 (08:18):
I have a dabba who can be so stupid. You
didn't speak to me like that, ginch I know mister Schultz.
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Yeah, but you don't know him like I know. Yeah,
what's the food on the table.
Speaker 14 (08:27):
For mister Schultz? He's back from the meeting.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
I was hoping he'd stay in New York see a
show something alight?
Speaker 14 (08:34):
Boss, Hello, mister Schultz.
Speaker 8 (08:35):
Boye, okay, but I'm gonna what's itally?
Speaker 14 (08:37):
Are very good, mister Schultz. Thirteen thousand, five hundred and
sixty one dollars and thirteen cents for the day.
Speaker 8 (08:43):
That's because of you have a dabba.
Speaker 14 (08:46):
It was nothing.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
Yeah, so they think I'm slipping, do they? Yo? Ginch?
What do you take?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Well? I think you're on top of the world, don't.
Speaker 13 (08:53):
Yeah, you know why? Because I use my brains. When
I ain't got him, I buy him. Those knuckleheads in
New York, these big business men, they got a numbers racket. Me,
I got a numbers racket. Mind pays off the players
would hardly ever. Yes, it's paying off all the time.
And why because mine is a period.

me aba dabba here.
Speaker 14 (09:11):
Oh, but I was glad to get the job. I
like the money up.
Speaker 13 (09:15):
I think, why isn't the numbers paying me more money?
Because it's too honest?
Speaker 8 (09:19):
That's why. It's like a bad slot. But it slot's
bad and paying off too much? What do you do?
You fix it?
Speaker 13 (09:24):
So I went over to that college there and I
bought me a student, a mathematical genius. I said to him, kid,
you'll fix this and I'll take care of you.

You were very generous and was really a fascinating problem.
Speaker 8 (09:35):
Ginch, what's the matter with South Foyona.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
The school kids? We're losing their business. One of their
principles is working against an runners.

So the tips has had to me. I swear that
guy is going to be a politician someday. And then
he walks down to the corner drug store.
Speaker 15 (14:49):
Drug store.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Yeah yeah, and the way I figured, everybody in city
hall is trying to tap his phone. So he uses
a drug store his public pay station. He goes inside,
the two bottom gods keep out in the street. He
stays in and averages three minutes alone see and he
comes out. It's in a city limousine and goes downtown.
Speaker 15 (15:07):
Very nice information of it. Now, how do you work it?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
He's very precise.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
This fellow goes into the drug store at eight oh five,
precisely every morning. The fellas who are handling the contract
yet there early, bang the druggists with silences. Wait, he
comes in, gods are outside, He goes into the boot,
they bang him, stroll out. We got two two and
a half minutes to get away. The guns get left
(15:33):
in the drug store.
Speaker 15 (15:33):
That's got listen of it.
Speaker 11 (15:35):
I think it's a very compact, unique way to handle
the contract. And I only wish I still had you
working for me in dish in your old capacity.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Incidentally, the guns I already arrange for a pair of
brand new, untraceable government forty five's. We lifted him out
of a crate down at the Federal ware.
Speaker 11 (15:52):
Yeah, it's perfect, nice work out of it. But I've
been giving this entire matter a lot of thought during
the past week. Really, I I tell you honestly, I
haven't slept. Please, gentlemen, I beg of you are a
little consideration. All right, all right, all I care you
(16:12):
won't listen.
Speaker 15 (16:14):
That's better now, you know me. I got only your best.
Speaker 11 (16:16):
Interests at heart, and I have come to the conclusion
that it is in all our best interest that this
fellow from the day's office days alive.
Speaker 8 (16:24):
Harry, what are you Puggy or something? This guy's gotta go?
Speaker 16 (16:28):
All right, all right, the boys, you can just quiet
down and listen to me.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, Lucky, what do you say?
Speaker 15 (16:35):
I say, Harry's ride the guy leaves.
Speaker 16 (16:39):
You know, we gotta look at this with the long view.
We gotta think of the syndica.
Speaker 13 (16:45):
You and a syndica can drop dead. Albas got the
perfect plan.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
Let's use it.
Speaker 16 (16:48):
Nayson shirts, I want you to shut up, and now
Harris a ride. And here's why, what can this da investigate?
The man and nothing else?
Speaker 15 (17:01):
All right, So we're.
Speaker 16 (17:02):
Gonna let him. We got a nationwide business to take
care of. We ain't gonna sacrifice that just to serve
a couple of times square number runner can stare at
the can.
Speaker 15 (17:14):
They seem to get to come first?
Speaker 12 (17:16):
Yeah, but that fellow he's investigating pretty high up. He
could he could even get some of the fellows in
this room.
Speaker 16 (17:22):
No, No, any lawyer will tell you they can't get
an indictment unless they got a solid case, and they
can't get a slid case unless they got two witnesses.
And that is where we pass out of the contracts.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
You mean, instead of taking this one fellow, we're gonna
have to take ten, maybe twenty.
Speaker 16 (17:42):
Yeah, yeah, And here's why. Take this fellow and it
becomes a federal case. It gets out of Manhattan, he
gets out of hand, and you boys are from a
Chicago to Milwaukee in a case.
Speaker 15 (17:56):
See know what I mean? And you too, do you
don the one?
Speaker 16 (18:01):
This investigation is spreading all over in New Jersey.
Speaker 11 (18:05):
I'm sure mister Schultz is beginning to see.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
The light Now let's take a vote.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Anybody against the notion that we let the little fella
go ahead with his investigation.
Speaker 12 (18:15):
That seems a long way around the bunk. I have
to kill all those witnesses instead of just one fella.
Speaker 15 (18:20):
We can get them before they started to be news.
There's no problem.
Speaker 12 (18:24):
And there I'm with you.
Speaker 8 (18:27):
