F. THE INNER CIRCLE

These are extracts from a master list of 800 names submitted to the Kefauver Committee of the U.S. Senate by Narcotics Commissioner Harry J. Anslinger in June 1950.

Since this list was compiled by Commissioner Anslinger some of the subjects on it changed their addresses--some to a much warmer climate.

NEW YORK

SAVERIO, Frank, Alias Frank COSTELLO: (International List 310)
This subject holds the No. 1 position among major criminals in
the United States today. He is a member of the Grand Council of
the International Mafia and ranks among the “top ten” of the
organization. Costello, as he is usually known, controls the
gambling interests in New York, New Jersey, Louisiana, Florida
and California, collaterally with interests in Colorado and other
western states. His gigantic coin machine operations which extend
through many sections of the country have gained him the title
“The Slot Machine King.” The subject is reputed to be interested
in all the major criminal activities conducted by the Mafia and
other organized criminals throughout the United States. He is
regularly seen in close association with wealthy and influential
persons and powerful political figures on both state and national
levels. The political success of candidates sponsored by Costello
in New York and Louisiana, which have included some of the
highest officials of both states, are attested facts.

DOTO, Joseph A., alias Joe ADONIS: (International List 79) This
subject is one of the most important figures of the Mafia
organization in New York City, a member of the Grand Council
of the International and a powerful leader in the national
underworld. For several years Doto has controlled gambling
and other rackets in New York, New Jersey and collaterally in
the west and Pacific Coast. He is a national figure in the
organization, beyond question. In addition to his gambling
interests, Doto long has been known as an important smuggler and
distributor of narcotics. He maintains a home at 1020 Dearborn
Road, Palisade Park, Fort Lee, N. J. He travels extensively. He
is of Italian descent and was born at Passaic, N. J., in 1902.

MANGANO, Vincent or Vicente: (International List 211) Subject is
an important member of the Grand Council of the International as
well as of the national organization within the United States. He
is reputed to derive a sizeable commission on all gambling and
other rackets in which the organization is engaged. He professes
inability to speak English. Mangano also controls the labor
unions on the Brooklyn docks and has connections with underworld
operations along the waterfront engaged in smuggling and
distribution of narcotics throughout the United States. Subject
is closely associated with top members of both the international
and national Mafia organizations. He is of Sicilian descent and
so far as records reflect was born in New York in 1887. His
address is 254 President Street, Brooklyn.

MANGANO, Philip: (International List 208) Although of less
importance than his brother, Vincent (above), subject is a highly
influential member of the Mafia in New York City. He is closely
associated with leading members of the organization there and
throughout the United States. He was born in Italy in 1900 and
became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1925. He
lives at 1126 Eighty-fourth Street, Brooklyn.

PROFACI, Joseph: (International List 274) Subject is a member
of the Grand Council of the International. Although there is
much indirect evidence that subject’s criminal activities have
included smuggling, counterfeiting, extortion, narcotics traffic
and murder, he has no record of convictions.

GENOVESE, Vito: (International List 130) Subject is an important
member of the Grand Council of the International and is powerful
in the underworld of New York City and the national tie-up. He is
associated with virtually all the influential Mafia members in
New York and with key individuals of the organization throughout
the United States. He is a notorious gunman and at one time
was linked with one of the most extensive narcotics operations
in the country. In 1939 Genovese fled to Italy while sought by
Kings County, N. Y., authorities in connection with Murder, Inc.
He was returned to the United States in 1945 and subsequently
was acquitted of a murder charge by a New York jury. Subject’s
criminal activities include murder, smuggling, extortion,
theft and gambling. He lives in an expensive home in Atlantic
Highlands, N. J.

CARFANO Anthony, aka Augie Pisano: (International List 031)
Subject is a highly important member of the national Mafia and
is a powerful leader of the underworld in its transcontinental
connections, as springboarded from Brooklyn and Miami. He has
been linked actively in the conduct of major drug smuggling
operations, with horse booking, the race wire and other gambling.
He was a former partner of Charles (Lucky) Luciano and was a
close associate of the late Al Capone. Carfano has accumulated
considerable wealth and lives lavishly. In recent years he has
been associated closely with Vincent (Jimmy Blue Eyes) Also in
operation of exclusive gambling establishments in the Miami area.
These resorts are known to be hangouts for major underworld
figures of the nation when they are in Florida. His summer home
is 85 Clayton Avenue, Long Beach, N. Y., but usually he lives in
various swank hotels in New York and Florida.

MORETTI, Quarico, aka Willie MORETTI: (International List 235)
Subject is an influential member of the Grand Council as well as
the national organisation and is one of the chief lieutenants to
Costello. He is the recognized leader of the New Jersey operation
and is associated with all the heavy rackets. He is considered
to be a man of substantial wealth. He is of Italian descent but
probably was born in this country. (Note: Subject is paretic
and highly unstable, hence his position today is known to be
precarious because of various ill-advised decisions which have
been costly to the organization recently.)

TEXAS

MACEO, Sam: This person is a very important member of the Mafia in
Texas and an extremely powerful and nationally known figure in
the underworld. He is associated with leading Mafia members and
other major racketeers throughout the United States. Maceo was
born in Italy in 1894 and came to the United States at an early
age. Prior to 1920, he worked as a barber in Galveston, Texas;
however, during the Prohibition era, he became the leader of
a group of liquor and narcotic smugglers who operated in that
vicinity. Following the repeal of prohibition, Sam Maceo and
his brother, Rosario, continued their drug smuggling activities
and at the same time “muscled in” on the gambling racket at
Galveston. Within a reasonable length of time, the Maceos were in
control of the gambling racket in that area, and as a result of
their diversified activities they became very wealthy and also
influential in politics. In 1937, Sam Maceo was reported with 87
other defendants in our Case File SE-131, involving an extensive
narcotic smuggling enterprise. However, Maceo was acquitted by a
jury on this charge. At the present time, the Maceo organization
has control of all gambling rackets in Galveston which consists
of dice, roulette, handbooks, policy, bingo, corno games and slot
machines. They also own several night clubs and bars and two
hotels in Galveston. Sam Maceo is a naturalized citizen of the
United States.

ANGELICA, Binaggio: This individual is an important member of the
Mafia Society of Houston, Texas, and is closely associated with
influential members of the organization throughout Texas, and
in the states of Louisiana, Missouri, Illinois, New York and
Florida. He has long been an important narcotic smuggler and
distributor and on October 20, 1938, was sentenced to ten years
in prison for violation of the narcotic laws in connection with
our Case Files Texas-9349 and SE-131. Angelica was formerly
identified with Mafia activities in Pennsylvania and was arrested
in Philadelphia in 1932 for “blackhand” extortion. The subject
was born in Italy and is a naturalized citizen of the U. S. He
resides at 1906 State Street, Houston, Texas.

ATTARDI, Alfonso: This man is an important member of the Mafia
Society in Houston, Texas. He was a former associate of Nicolo
Gentile, the former national arbitrator of the organization
and was associated with other members throughout Texas and in
the states of Louisiana, New York and Missouri. Attardi was
co-defendant in our Case File SE-131, NYS-5198 and Texas-9225 and
on January 10, 1940 was sentenced to 8 years in Federal prison in
the latter case.

MISSOURI

DI GIOVANNI, Joseph: This man is the head of the Mafia society for
the state of Missouri, and without question is the most feared
and influential man in the Kansas City underworld. Di Giovanni,
who is now one of the wealthiest Italians in Kansas City, came to
the United States as a poor Sicilian immigrant in 1912. He began
his career as the leader of a small group of extortionists and
within a short time was the leader of the Mafia element in Kansas
City. During the Prohibition era, Di Giovanni and his associates
controlled the manufacture and distribution of all contraband
liquor in this area as well as the raw material used therein, and
in the early thirties, his group organized the narcotic syndicate
which operated in Kansas City until 1942. At the present time, Di
Giovanni owns and operates a wholesale liquor business known as
the Midwest Distributing Co. at 1109 Cherry St., and also owns a
chain of retail stores known as the Happy Hollow Liquor Stores,
Inc. He resides at 410 Gladstone Blvd.

BALESTRERE, James: This individual is the head of the Mafia Society
at Kansas City, Mo., and is second in command in the state.
Balestrere is often referred to as the “Mystery Man” of local
politics by the _Kansas City Star_ and has been known to exert
considerable influence in both state and national circles. For
a number of years, Balestrere was the leader of the North Side
Democratic club which controlled the entire Italian district as
well as the greater portion of the northeast section of the city.
In 1943, Balestrere went into so-called retirement and installed
an associate, Charles Binaggio, as the club head. On April 5,
1950, Binaggio was assassinated. During the interim, Balestrere
and his superior, Joseph Di Giovanni, have directed all matters,
political and otherwise, from the background.

DI GIOVANNI, Peter: This individual occupies a position of great
importance in the Mafia society at Kansas City, Mo., due to
the influence of his brother, Joseph, who is state head of
the organisation. He resides at 502 Campbell St. and was a
stockholder in the former “Kansas City Narcotics Syndicate.”

DE LUCA, Joseph: (Nat. List 102) This man is a very influential
member of the Mafia Society at Kansas City, and one of the most
vicious characters in the underworld of that city. He was the

the Prohibition era was one of the largest bootleggers in the
state of Missouri. De Luca resides at 2840 Forest St.

GIZZO, Anthony Robert: This subject, usually known as Tony, is
an influential member of the Mafia and long has been regarded
as Balestrere’s first lieutenant. He personally looks after
Balestrere’s business enterprises and is said to have a small
interest in each. In addition, Gizzo is the owner of one of the
largest horse books in Kansas City. He is a close associate of
the Fischetti brothers in Chicago, Joseph Profaci of Brooklyn,
and Carlos Marcello of New Orleans. He is frequently a liaison
man for the Kansas City Mafia between these points.

IMPOSTATO, Micolo: (Nat. List 189) This subject is a very
influential member of the Mafia at Kansas City and reputedly
holds a high seat on the International Council. He is a known
professional “killer” and is known to have been brought to Kansas
City originally from Springfield, Ill., as an enforcer for the
local Mafia. Impostato was the general manager of the former
“Kansas City Narcotics Syndicate” and on April 13, 1943, was
sentenced to two years in Federal Prison for violation of the
Narcotics Laws. He lives at 32 Warner Plaza, Kansas City.

COLORADO

DIONISIO, Robert Victor: This subject is an important and
influential member of the Mafia at Trinidad. He is a son
of the late Rosario Dionisio, who formerly was head of the
society in Southern Colorado. The name Dionisio is well known
throughout Southern Colorado in that the family long has been
notorious as so-called “black-handers.” The Dionisios have been
investigated by numerous law enforcement agencies in connection
with bootlegging, bombing, gang killings, etc., but for the most
part have no criminal records. Robert Dionisio was indicted and
convicted in 1938 at Trinidad on fraud charges growing out of
misuse of public funds. He was one of 12 so convicted. Subject
was born in Lucca, Sicula, Sicily, and came to the United States
when he was 17. He operates a grocery at 1002 Arizona St., and
also has an interest in a tavern. He resides at the Arizona St.

smuggling of narcotics from Mexico to the United States and
processing it into heroin. He maintains a home at 335 E. 58th
Street, NYC.

MAUGERI, Salvatore: This man is an important member of the Mafia in
the San Francisco area and is closely associated with influential
members of the organization throughout California, New York and
New Jersey. He has been an important trafficker in narcotics many
years and formerly was a partner with Charles La Gaipa in an
extensive narcotic smuggling enterprise on the Coast. Maugeri was
sentenced to 10 years in prison, Nov. 30, 1944, for narcotic law
violation (SE 204 and Cal 3368). Other important associates of
Maugeri in this case, in addition to La Gaipa were Joseph Tocco,
Charles Alberto and Joseph Dentico. Maugeri also has a record of
counterfeiting, with one conviction in 1935, for which he was
sentenced to two years in prison. He was born in Italy, Sept 13,
1892, and is a naturalized citizen of the United States. His
legal address is 378 23rd Ave., San Francisco.

TOCCO, Joseph: This individual is an important member of the Mafia
in California and New York. Prior to his imprisonment he divided

opium and 8 ounces of morphine at Chicago while en route from
California to New York. He was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment
the following Nov. 30 (see Case Files Calif. 3368 and SE 204).

MILANO, Tony, 9451 Sunset, Hollywood

NANI, Sebastiano, San Mateo

ROSELLI, Johnnie, LA

SICA, Joseph, 627 N. Griffith Park Drive, Burbank (ditto above)

FLORIDA

TRAFFICANTE, Santos: This subject was head of the Mafia at Tampa
for many years and still holds an influential position in the
organization there. In 1946, Trafficante was replaced as head
of the local organization by Salvatore Scaglione through the
intervention of the Diecidue family, who have long opposed
the subject. During the period from 1929 to 1942, Trafficante
and other members of the Mafia in Tampa, New Orleans, New
York, St Louis and Kansas City were involved in an extensive
narcotics racket. This enterprise was broken up by the arrest
and conviction of eleven defendants, two of whom were members of
the Tampa organization. (See Case File 202). His address is 3010
North Blvd., Tampa.

DIECIDUE, Apphonso: This individual is the father of Antonio,
Thomas and Frank Diecidue and is an important figure in the
Mafia at Tampa. However, in view of the fact he now is 78, a
large portion of his influence has been delegated to his eldest
son, Antonio. The latter is alleged to dictate all policies of
the Tampa organization. Alphonso is and has been for many years
the head of the Unione Siciliano in Tampa. It has been well
established that this organization is substantially the same as
the Mafia. He has long been closely associated with important
Mafia figures in NYC, New Orleans, Chicago, Kansas City and
