Syndicate fears loom as Montana readers mock crime rings
The piece discusses Montana readers' response to Newsweek and Time magazine exposes on the Costello crime syndicate and national underworld influence. It notes local interest in gambling, slot machines, and public figures like Mayor Morrison, with warnings about crime and a broader call for federal anti racketeering action, while also presenting public safety notes on carbon monoxide deaths and Christmas tree fire hazards.
