until the ballot scandal in Newark in November, 1939, when
tne mob left. In April, 1934, ZWILLmaN ana BUGSY SIsGhL

several close personal frienas among tne officials of tne
fox Stucio, It wes also reported at tnis time tnat

Tne theory nas deen advanced tnat the top sobsters
in the country, including LUCIANO, COSTELLC, BUCHALTEH,
SnAFI20, ZwILLwAN, anc SInGkL, were apprehensive about the
return of DTCi SCnULIZ to the New York area, inasmuch as
they had assumed manegement of SCsULTZ' gang. It has been
Suggested that several of the above mobsters did a favor for
certain Kansas City, silssouri, gangsters and had MICHABL
JAvcS LACKAPHA killed and tnat gunmen wno were brougnt to
New York to dispose of SC:ilL1Z and nis mob were furnisned
by the Keanses City unaerworla, partially to repay ZWILLMAN
etal for having taken care of LACaPaA.
In the early 193C's, Za TLLAN (maintained a resi-
dence at 127 Goodwyn avenue, Newark, and)visited not
Springs, Arkansas, on severel occasions with BUCHALTER,

In connection witn his liquor activities, ZWILLMAN
became associatea witn members of tne HbINFELD family, and
he reportedly began hauling liquor into Atlantic highlands,
New Jersey, with JOSEPH and SAUL HELINFELD. This was
reportedly ZwWILLmuAN'S first big enterprise, and snortly
theresfter, JOSLPH STACHER, with alias Doc Rosen, reportedly
became a fifty per cent partner with ZWILLMAN. At no time
did ZWILLMAN and nis organization apparently have any trouble
witn liquor authorities. ZWILLMAN and this group accumu-
lated great wealth from this enterprise and from their
oF tapas s in distiljAng raw alcohol with @ group consisting
of A UTKIN, PAHIL/KULL, a former Newark police sergeant,
