that you can put your finger on. Although he is the recognised lender on
-the -{Vest -¬oe.et-of 111 activities oi New York, Ghicegc, Detroit, end other
major cities gang activities, they do not control gllmbling in the Les Angeles
area. SIEGEL likes California and has made his home there for several years
for that reason. He does not want to become too involved in illegal activities
in Gelifomie beclusc he is ettenpting to enjoy e "good" reputation there. He
prides himself on the feet that he has never been convicted of 0. criminal
offenle of e mejcr mture, end is ashamed oi his one felony conviction or book-
Angeles about e ear s o. He was convicted st that time with ' Y s i 'd was fined. However, bookndting 1- 1 felony in Ollifornia. 57¢
CHICAGO AND DETROIT: '
SIBGIL, COS'lELLO, ADOHIS, Ind IANSY do not actually control eny
sembling eotivitice in those cities, but, by agreement, work "bend in glove"
with underworld elements then. As previously reported, they have e working
egreement with the CAPQRE element in Chicago, and infomant feels that the
GLPOEB group is not getting nest of its support from these non until it can
eoecesefly function clone without their entire etwpcrt.

' Ion have expressed an interest in the possibility of sucoessi~uJly,,;,":;,,.,,i
prosecuting the above-nsned subject for perjury or subornatiou of perjury fl
as e result of the testisocw-before the Oxissicuer of the Civilian Productitn
#Iinistretion at San Francisco, Oalifomia. " ', IUIIICT:
It has been ascertained frm the San Francisco Office that the witnesses
who testified were not placed under oath, and Siege]. did not testify. The
Cosnnisaicner, hourever,-infomed all of the witnesses that it would be a violaticn
of law for then to lake false statements at the hearing.
Bection 231, Title 13, U.S.C.l., the Perjury Statute, clearly f
provides that the taking of an oath before s competent tribunal, officer, or
person is a condition precedent to a perjury violaticn. Therefore, from the
facts as determined at the present tins there could not possibly be successful
prosecution for perjury or subornaticn of perjury.
Section B0, Title 18, U.S.C.1., however, is a very broad statue and pro-
vides that the making of or the causing to be made a false or fraudulent statement
in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United
States is a violation with a penalty provision of ten years or $10,000, orboth. It appears the facts in the present case may ccnstitute a violation of FL
this section. '
