THE SECRET PROHIBITION HISTORY OF CITIZEN DALITZ!

THE SECRET PROHIBITION HISTORY  OF CITIZEN DALITZ WAS THE FOUNDATION OF HIS WEALTH. THIS HIDDEN ASPECT OF THE KING OF LAS VEGAS DEMONSTRATED THE IMPACT OF CAPITAL AND POWER.

 CITIZEN DALITZ INVENTED THE ART OF THE DEAL! 

MOE DALITZ UNDERSTOOD MACHIAVELLI 'S THE PRINCE AND PRACTICED CHAPTER EIGHT, " CONCERNING THOSE WHO BECOME PRINCES BY CRIME". 

THE F.B.I. HAD CREATED A PARADIGM THAT ORGANIZED CRIME WAS THE SOLE RESULT OF AN  ITALIAN MAFIA. THE F.B I. USED A DISCONTINUITY PARADIGM.  DALITZ MULTI-ETHNIC ORGANIZATION WAS THE ORGANIZATION OF THE FUTURE.

HOW DID PROHIBITION CREATE THE GROWTH INDUSTRY OF BOOTLEGGING?

BY 1928, DETROIT FAST GROWING INDUSTRY WAS BOOTLEGGING. THE RATE OF GROWTH DETERMINES THE PROFIT RATE. THE PROFIT RATE DETERMINES THE WEALTH RATE OF BUSINESS.

IN DETROIT, THERE WERE 25,000 ILLEGAL SALOONS WITH COMBINED INCOME OF $423 MILLION A  YEAR. THE ILLEGAL WORLD OF BOOTLEGGING EMPLOYED 50,000 DETROIT WORKERS.THE DALITZ PARTNERSHIP MADE A FORTUNE DURING THE THIRTEEN YEARS OF PROHIBITION.

THE DALITZ PROHIBITION PARTNERSHIP CREATED A NETWORK OF CRIMINAL ASSOCIATES. THE DETROIT HIGHWAY LEAD TO  CANADA'S SAMUEL BRONFMAN; IT LEAD TO CHICAGO'S AL CAPONE; IT LEAD TO ARIZONA'S KEMPER MARLEY AND NEW YORK'S FIVE FAMILIES.

 THE EVOLUTION OF DETROIT ORGANIZED CRIME GROUPS  EVOLVED FROM BOOTLEGGING TO GAMBLING AND  INTO PROSTITUTION. THE VARIOUS DETROIT GANGS SAW PROFITS GROW BY DEVELOPING A  MONOPOLY MARKET STRUCTURE. THE MONOPOLY MARKET STRUCTURE LEAD TO COMPETITION AND GANGLAND WARS. THE MAFIA HAD BECOME A HANDMAIDEN OF CAPITALISM.

ULTIMATELY, THE NEW ORGANIZED CRIME MARKET STRUCTURE CREATED AN OLIGARCHY OF CRIME ASSOCIATIONS. THE EMERGENCE OF THE BIG SEVEN  REGIONAL GANGS AND 22 BOOTLEGGING GANGS. MOE DALITZ WAS PART OF THE 22 BOOTLEGGING GANGS. IRONICALLY, JOSEPH KENNEDY WAS A MEMBER OF THE BOOTLEGGING CREWS.

LATER, LUCKY LUCIANO CONSOLIZED THE REGIONAL GANGS OF 1925 INTO THE FIVE FAMILIES OF NEW YORK. THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE MAFIA CARTEL WHICH CONTROLLED AND DEMANDED MARKET COMPLIANCE FROM OTHER REGIONAL MARKETS. MOE DALITZ WAS HAPPY TO BE LEFT ALONE WITH HIS OWN PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP.

 HE EVENTUALLY FORMED AN ALLIANCE WITH MEYER LANSKY REGIONAL CASINOS. IT WAS MEYER LANSKY WHO TOLD DALITZ ABOUT LAS VEGAS, NEVADA AND HAVANA, CUBA. LANSKY TOLD DALITZ ABOUT THE MARKET BENEFITS HE WOULD GAIN BY JOINING THE CARTEL. HIS PARTNERSHIP WOULD RECEIVE MONEY, MUSCLE, AND POLITICAL CONNECTIONS. HE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE SERVICES BY LEARNING HOW TO SKIM IN CASINOS. 

MOE DALITZ PARTNERSHIP COULD NEVER ACHIEVE A MONOPOLY OR OLIGOPOLIC CONTROL OF BOOTLEGGING. THEY DEVELOPED MORE OF AN IMPERFECT COMPETITION BASED ON NICHE MARKET IN BORDER STATES.

MOE DALITZ BECOME KNOWN AS THE 1920's "PULLER". HE IMPORTED ILLEGAL LIQUOR FROM SAM BRONFMAN'S CANADIAN  DISTILLER CORPORATION LIMITED. MR. SAM WOULD LATER VISIT MOE DALITZ AND KEMPER MARLEY TO RECOGNIZE THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS AS TOP IMPORTERS OF HIGH-END WHISKEYS. 

MARNI DAVIS'S BRILLIANT BOOK JEWS AND BOOZE TRACES THE HISTORICAL FOUNDATIONS OF THE JEWISH BOOZE TRADE. SHE ARGUES THAT THE JEWISH INTEGRATION INTO AMERICAN SOCIETY WAS THE PROHIBITION TRADE. 

 DALITZ  DEVELOPED A HIGH-QUALITY BRAND AND HIGH-END GRIND JOINTS. MOE DALITZ AND HIS PARTNER SERVED THE OHIO GANG IN WASHINGTON, D.C. THEY WORKED WITH JESS SMITH OF THE WHITE HOUSE AND SOLD WHISKEY TO PRESIDENT HARDING.

 PRESIDENT HARDING HAD  WILD PARTIES IN THE  WHITE HOUSE YELLOW OVAL ROOM. MRS. HARDING HAD A PERSONAL ASTROLOGER MADAME MARCIA WHO PREDICTED THAT HARDING WOULD  DIE BY POISONING! IRONICALLY, PRESIDENT HARDING DIED FROM A MYSTERIOUS ILLNESS IN 1923.

PRESIDENT WARREN HARDING HAD A FULLY STOCK SIDEBAR WHICH INCLUDED DALITZ WHISKEY. PRESIDENT HARDING HAD POKER NIGHTS TWICE A WEEK IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

 ON ONE OCCASION, A GUEST'S PET MONKEY TOOK SOME DALITZ WHISKEY AND POURED IT OVER PRESIDENT HARDING WHITE SUIT. PRESIDENT HARDING EVEN HAD A COMPARTMENT IN HIS GOLF BAG WHERE HE KEPT WHISKEY.

 THIS WHAT ECONOMIST CALL IMPERFECT COMPETITION.

CITIZEN DALITZ LEARNED EARLY IN HIS CAREER THAT TWO THINGS WERE NECESSARY FOR SUCCESS: (1) ORGANIZED PARTNERSHIPS ; (2) MULTI-ETHNIC ALLIANCE OF CRIMINAL PARTNERS. MOE DALITZ WAS ABLE TO USE HIS FAMILY LAUNDRY BUSINESS AS A NEXUS POINT FOR HIS PROHIBITION BUSINESS. 

THE DALITZ LAUNDRY EVOLVED FROM THEIR FATHERS DALITZ BROTHERS TO BECOME THE COLONIAL LAUNDRY AND LATER MERGED INTO THE MICHIGAN INDUSTRIAL LAUNDRY  AND LATER THE U.S. INDUSTRIAL GLOVE AND LAUNDRY COMPANY. THEY MOVED THEIR LAUNDRY BUSINESS FROM DETROIT TO ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN. THEY DEVELOPED A LEGITIMATE FRONT FOR THEIR ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES.

CITIZEN DALITZ FUNCTIONAL MODEL OF MULTI-ETHNIC ALLIANCES OF JEWISH, IRISH, AND ITALIAN GANGSTERS. THIS WAS THE A GREAT MYSTERY FOR THE  F.B.I. THE F.B.I. CLASSIFIED THE CLEVELAND SYNDICATE AS A GROUP  OF GAMBLERS AS OPPOSED TO MAFIA ORGANIZED CRIME FAMILY.

 THE F.B.I. FOUND THAT MANY OF MOE DALITZ BUSINESSES  ALSO INVOLVED CHUCK POLIZZI, THE MAYFIELD ROAD MOB, AL POLIZZI,  JOHN ANGERSOLA, MARTIN O" BOYLE AND ALDERMAN HARRY POTTER.

 DALITZ HAD CONTACTS WITH THE NEW YORK GANGS OF MEYER LANSKY, LUCKY LUCIANO AND BUGSY SIEGEL.THE F.B.I. HAD NO REAL MAPPING TOOLS TO DISCOVER THE VARIOUS NETWORKS AND CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE CORPORATE WORLD AND UNDERWORLD.

IN 1921, CITIZEN DALITZ PUT TOGETHER HIS FIRST PROHIBITION PARTNERSHIP. THIS WAS LATER CALLED BY HANK MESSICK THE SILENT SYNDICATE. MOE DALITZ REALIZED THAT HE COULD NOT COMPETE AGAINST THE PURPLE GANG OR THE ITALIAN MAFIA.  HE WAS FACED WITH A MAJOR ORGANIZATIONAL PROBLEM.

HIS SOLUTION WAS TO SET UP BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP TEAMS. HE DEVELOPED THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS OF SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIP: (1) BUSINESS IMPACT BY COMBINING FORCES FOR PRODUCTIVITY AND COMPETITIVENESS; (2) INTIMACY OF RELATIONSHIPS TO DISCUSS BUSINESS PROBLEMS; (3) ORGANIZATIONAL VISION TO DEVELOP A SHARED ROAD MAP OF THE FUTURE; 

(4)  MAKING THE PROHIBITION AND GAMBLING AREAS A BIGGER PIE; (5) REDUCTION OF DUPLICATION AND WASTE IN SERVICE; (6) DEVELOPING CORE COMPETENCIES TO REACH MORE MARKETS: (7) CREATING NEW  OPPORTUNITIES IN GAMBLING; (8) BUILDING TRUST WITH PARTNERS AND CUSTOMERS; (9) AND DEVELOPING COMMON SHARED VALUES. MOE DALITZ HAD TO CLARIFY HIS PARTNERSHIP LEADERSHIP TO HIS PARTNERS.

MOE DALITZ USED THIS PARTNERSHIP MODEL TO PARTNER WITH OTHER PURPLE GANG AND MAFIA SUPPLIERS.  DALITZ REALIZED THAT HE DID NOT HAVE ORGANIZATION EFFICIENCIES AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE OF THE ITALIAN MAFIA. DALITZ NEEDED TO ACCESS TO NEW MARKETS AND HE COULD NOT MEET ALL THE CUSTOMER DEMANDS.

 HE NEEDED NEW SUPPLIERS THAT RANGED FROM PURPLE GANG CONTACTS TO MAFIA GAMBLING EXPERTISE FROM MEYER LANSKY. HE NEEDED LARGE SUMS OF MONEY THAT ONLY HOFFA'S TEAMSTER'S COULD SUPPLY. HE NEEDED TO ESTABLISH A POWER BASE. MOE DALITZ NEEDED THE PARTNERSHIP MODEL TO GIVE HIM A LONG TERM COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE OVER THE PURPLE GANG AND MAFIA. MOE DALITZ UPDATED HIS PARTNERSHIP MODEL IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA. DALITZ DEVELOPED BEST PRACTICES IN PARTNERSHIPS THAT CONFOUNDED THE F.B.I.

 WHO WERE THE FIRST MEMBERS? THE FIRST MEMBER WAS MORRIS KLEINMAN WHO WAS A PRIZE FIGHTER AND KNEW HOW TO WORK THE FIXER. HE WAS KNOWN TO MANIPULATE THE CLEVELAND GOVERNMENT.

 THE SECOND MEMBER WAS LOUIS ROTHKOPF KNEW HOW TO RUN THE ILLEGAL DISTILLERIES. UNCLE LOUIE WAS FOND OF SHOWGIRLS AND WAS GIVEN A JOB IN THE DESERT INN, LAS VEGAS, NEVADA.  THE LAST MEMBER WAS SAM TUCKER. SAM TUCKER WORKED VARIOUS ANGLES IN THE SHADOW WORLD OF BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION. DALITZ WAS THE LEADER OF THE GROUP.

MOE DALITZ SILENT SYNDICATE OPERATED A COVERT  SMUGGLING OPERATION FROM CLEVELAND, OHIO. MOE DALITZ HAD LIVED IN AKRON, OHIO.  DALITZ HAD DEVELOPED AN EXTENSIVE NETWORK OF MULTI-ETHNIC CONFEDERATES TO CARRY OUT HIS SMUGGLING OPERATION. 

THESE ASSOCIATES MET AT THE HOLLENDEN HOTEL AND USED EXTENSIVE COVERT TRADECRAFT TO HIDE FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THE MEDIA.

 SOME OF THE CRIMINAL DIVISIONS WERE: MCGINTY AND O' BOYLE BOOTLEGGING AND LABOR RACKETEERING IN LAUNDRY;  HAAS AND BECKERMAN LEGAL REPRESENTATION  FOR JURY RIGGING, MISTRIALS, ELECTION FRAUD AND EMBEZZLEMENT AND ACQUIRING RACETRACKS AND CASINOS; WEXLER AND BIRNS CONTROLLED THE NEW WIRE-SERVICES AND PROSTITUTION.

THE DALITZ PARTNERSHIP HAD A SPECIAL DIVISION WITH THE ITALIAN GANGS OF MAYFIELD ROAD. THE ADDED CRIMINAL DIVISION FROM MILANO BROTHERS  WOULD PROVIDE MUSCLE AND BOOTLEGGING OPERATIONS. THE INTEGRATION OF  SAM MACEO TEXAS CONNECTION FOR ILLEGAL LIQUOR AND POLITICAL CONTACTS. ULTIMATELY, 13 MURDERS WERE LINKED TO THE DALITZ GROUP.

DALITZ HAD TO SET UP A TEAM OF INDIVIDUALS TO MEET HIS SMUGGLING OBJECTIVES. DALITZ  WANTED TO EXCLUSIVELY CONTROL THE BOOTLEGGING FRANCHISE FROM DETROIT, MICHIGAN  CLEVELAND, OHIO, WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND  NORTHERN KENTUCKY. DALITZ WANTED TO PROTECT THIS PART OF THE FRANCHISE FROM INDEPENDENTS. DALITZ DEVELOPED A NETWORK OF NIGHTCLUBS, CASINOS AND REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS IN THESE AREAS. 

HE DEVELOPED A RUTHLESS AND COLD BLOODED TEAM OF INDIVIDUALS TO CARRY OUT HIS PLANS. HIS OPERATIONAL TEAM WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR MURDER, BRIBERY, SMUGGLING, PAYOFFS, AND CASH INVESTMENTS. THE NADEL AND GOLDMAN MURDERS OF 1928 WERE LINKED TO THE DALITZ GROUP. MOREOVER, IN 1929 LEO KLEIN WAS FOUND STABBED AND EXECUTION STYLE BULLET TO THE HEAD.

HOW WAS THE DALITZ PARTNERSHIP  REWARDED IN MAY 14,  1929?

 MOE DALITZ RECEIVED A SPECIAL INVITATION TO ATTEND THE BIG SEVEN REGIONAL MEETING AT ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY. THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE MULTI-ETHNIC ORIGINS OF ORGANIZED CRIME IN AMERICA.

 MOE DALITZ LIQUOR FRANCHISE WAS RECOGNIZED AS SAFE TERRITORY FROM INDEPENDENTS AND OTHER GANGS. DALITZ SILENT SYNDICATE WAS AWARDED A TERRITORIAL EXPANSION IN  ARIZONA, AND NOGALES, MEXICO.

 DALITZ VISITED ARIZONA IN 1936 FOR HEALTH REASONS. HE PURCHASED A TUCSON LAUNDRY FOR HIS EMPIRE OF LAUNDRIES. DALITZ BOUGHT THE FIRST RANCH IN ARIZONA. DALITZ PARTNERSHIP BECAME A POLITICAL MODEL FOR THE NEW STATE OF ARIZONA. 

DALITZ HELD COURT WITH THE NEW POWER ELITE OF ARIZONA FROM THE GOLDWATERS, ROSENZWEIG, GREENBAUM, WILLIE BIOFF,  AND KEMPER MARLEY. 

KEMPER MARLEY CONTROLLED UNITED LIQUOR IN PHOENIX AND TUCSON, ARIZONA. KEMPER MARLEY BECAME THE MAJOR POWER BROKER OF POST- WORLD WAR II PHOENIX, ARIZONA.

IN 1948, 52 EMPLOYEES OF UNITED LIQUORS WERE INDICTED FOR FEDERAL LIQUOR VIOLATIONS. KEMPER MARLEY USED HIS ATTORNEY WILLIAM RENDQUIST TO AVOID FEDERAL INDICTMENT. THE IDEA WAS TO USE BOOTLEGGING  MONEY TO CREATE A NEW TRIAD OF POWER IN PHOENIX. 

THE DEMOCRATIC PHOENIX CITY GOVERNMENT WAS CONTROLLED BY SCANDAL AND CORRUPTION. PHOENIX COULD BE MODELED ON THE MIDWESTERN CITIES. PHOENIX AND LAS VEGAS WERE RAILROAD CITIES. BOTH CITIES HAD NO REAL CULTURAL IDENTITY UNTIL AFTER WORLD WAR II.

THE NEW BOOTLEGGING MONEY COULD BE USED TO CREATE A REPUBLICAN POWER BASE IN PHOENIX AND CONTROL THE STATE GOVERNMENT. THE NEW TRIAD WOULD USE  THE VALLEY NATIONAL BANK TO FINANCE NEW DEAL PROJECTS AND  CASINO PROJECTS. THE RECRUITMENT OF  ARIZONA REPUBLIC NEWSPAPERS AS A TOOL FOR REPUBLICAN BUSINESS INTERESTS.

 THE NO UNION POLICY ALLOWED FOR CONTROL OF THE MINORITY GROWTH IN PHOENIX. THE HISPANICS OF THE AREA FAILED TO LEARN FROM THE IMMIGRANT IRISH OF BOSTON:  HISPANICS NEEDED A POLITICAL TRIAD. IN 2016, ALL MAJOR POLITICAL POSITIONS ARE OWNED BY REPUBLICAN ANGLOS IN PHOENIX, HISPANICS HAVE PAID FOR POLITICAL FAILURE IN ARIZONA.

 IRONICALLY, KEMPER MARLEY BACKED DEMOCRATIC  GOVERNOR RAUL CASTRO. IN 1970'S  GOVERNOR RAUL CASTRO BECAME THE FIRST MEXICAN- AMERICAN GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA. 

  GOVERNOR CASTRO WAS UNABLE TO CREATE A HISPANIC POLITICAL MACHINE IN PHOENIX AND HE EVENTUALLY LEFT FOR AN AMBASSADOR POSITION. THE "ANGLO" TRIAD OF PHOENIX IMPORTED CONTROLLED MINORITY "LEADERSHIP".

SOUTH PHOENIX WAS SIMILAR TO THE WESTSIDE IN LAS VEGAS: IT BECAME THE SEGREGATED AREAS FOR AFRICAN-AMERICANS. SOUTH PHOENIX BECAME THE SYMBOL OF URBAN FAILURE.   SOUTH PHOENIX EXPERIENCED THE WORST FORMS OF ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM IN ARIZONA.

 THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN PARTY TAKEOVER COULD BE EASILY DONE WITH THE DEEP POCKETS OF NEW  LIQUOR BARONS. DALITZ MADE SURE THE ARIZONA POLITICAL ELITES WOULD VOTE NO ON GAMBLING IN ARIZONA. 

 LAS VEGAS WOULD HAVE THE CASINO MONOPOLY.  THE ONLY EXCEPTION WAS THE EASTERN DOG AND HORSE RACING INTERESTS OF NEW YORK. THE ARIZONA ELITES ALLOWED FOR THE LIMITED EXPANSION OF ORGANIZED CRIME INTO ARIZONA FOR ECONOMIC REASONS.   THE ARIZONA POWER ELITES DOMINATED ARIZONA POLITICS FROM 1946 TO 1980. 

 IN 1945, PETER LICAVOLI PURCHASED THE GRACE RANCH IN TUCSON.  DALITZ HAD MADE THE MAYFIELD MOB OF DETROIT MILLIONAIRES. PETER LICAVOLI USED ARIZONA NUMBERED REAL ESTATE TRUST  ACCOUNTS TO HIDE THEIR WEALTH IN ARIZONA.

 LICOAVALI USED  THESE LAND CONTRACTS AS INVESTMENT VEHICLE IN THE SOUTHWEST. THIS WAS THE REAL REASON FOR THE EXPANSION INTO TUCSON, ARIZONA. THERE WERE NO RECORDS OF OWNERSHIP BY PETER LICAVOLI IN THE SOUTHWEST.

DALITZ STUDIED THE TUCSON MARKET.  DALITZ REALIZED THE MAJOR PROFIT AREAS WERE LAND FRAUD, BOOTLEGGING,  LAYOFF BOOK IN NEW MEXICO AND TUCSON MOTELS. THE TRANSAMERICA WIRING SERVICE WAS RUN OUT OF  THE SANTA RITA HOTEL.

 THIS WAS A SMALL TIME ORGANIZATION COMPARED TO HIS DETROIT OPERATION. LICAVOLI AND SMALL TIME ASSOCIATES  LIKE GAME BOY MILLER, GUS GREENBAUM, AND  ROBERT BRICKMAN WERE SMALL FRYS FOR DALITZ, THERE WAS NO REAL  PROFIT GROWTH IN ARIZONA FOR DALITZ. 

IN 1968, EX- F.B.I. AGENT DAVID HALE MISREAD THE MAFIA  ROLE OF LICAVOLI AND BONNAN0 IN TUCSON. DALITZ EARLIER  INSIGHTS INTO THE STAGNANT GAMBLING MARKET AND COMING COLLAPSE OF THE MAFIA WERE PROPHETIC.  DAVID HALE  ATTEMPTED TO IGNITE A GANG WAR WITH VARIOUS DIRECTED BOMBINGS IN TUCSON.

 THERE WAS A LOT OF POLITICAL PLANNING ABOUT ARIZONA BUT DALITZ FOUND THE COMPETITION  AND MARKET TOO SLOW. HE TOLD LANSKY THAT MEXICO HAD CLOSED DOWN THE AGUA CALIENTE CASINO IN MEXICO AND MEXICO HAD AN OFF LIMITS POLICY FOR AMERICAN GAMBLERS. 

DALITZ SAW AL WERTHEIMER'S PALM SPRING'S  DUNE'S HOTEL AND COLONIAL HOUSE AS A  SLOW MARKET. PALM SPRINGS HAD MANY OF DALITZ'S  PURPLE GANG FRIENDS.  AL WERTHEIMER DIED AS A LOST SOUL IN CALIFORNIA. PALM SPRINGS HAD NO REAL FUTURE FOR GAMBLING.

 IRONICALLY, THE F.B.I. WAS STILL LOOKING FOR MAFIA IN ARIZONA WHEN THE REALITY WAS THAT THIS WAS A MULTI-ETHNIC GROUP.  SAM STEIGER DISCUSSION OF LOU JACOB'S EMPRISE CORPORATION EXPOSED THE NEW MULTI-GANG ORGANIZATION.

 STEIGER KNEW ALL THE NEW PLAYERS AND TRIED TO WARN  ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT COMMUNITY.  DON BOLLES, ARIZONA REPUBLIC REPORTER,  UNCOVERED A STRANGE ALLIANCE OF CRIMINALS IN ARIZONA. DON BOLLES FELL RIGHT INTO THE TRAP!

THE 1970'S  PHOENIX CITY ELITES HAD DEVELOPED  EXTENSIVE GANGSTER RELATIONSHIPS IN PHOENIX. MOE DALITZ WAS ACTIVE  WITH THE POLITICAL ELITE AND MADE SURE TO FINANCE THE NO GAMING MOVEMENT IN ARIZONA.  NED DAY DISCOVERED THE SAME TYPE OF GANGSTER RELATIONSHIPS AT THE STARDUST HOTEL AND CASINO. THE MOB HAD USED CAR BOMBING FROM 1970'S TO THE 1980'S.

 IRONICALLY, FOUR YEARS EARLIER, GEORGE WILLIAM COULTHARD HAD A BOMB PLACED IN HIS CADILLAC. HE WAS KILLED ON JULY 25, 1972. THE CAR BOMB CUT OFF BILL'S HEAD AND SHATTERED HIS BODY INTO SMALL PIECES.  BILL HAD MARRIED THE HEIR TO THE APACHE HOTEL AND CASINO,  LENA SILVAGNL. BILL HAD BECOME INVOLVED IN NUMEROUS COURT CASES IN HIS LEGAL PRACTICE. HE HATED THE BINIONS AND PLANNED TO SELL OUT THEIR CASINO INTERESTS. 

 BILL COULTHARD ORGANIZED THE FIRST RESIDENT F.B.I. OFFICE  FROM 1939 TO 1945 IN LAS VEGAS. THE F.B.I. LET THE LOCAL SHERIFF LAMB  HANDLE THIS TRAGIC CASE. THE F.B.I. HAVE A MORAL OBLIGATION TO SOLVE THIS CASE.  THIS WAS THE SAME TYPE OF BOMB THAT LATTER KILLED DON BOLLES.MANY RUMORS LINKED THE KILLING TO BINION'S HORSESHOE LEASING PROBLEMS. 

   NED DAY'S CAR WAS FIRE BOMBED.  DAY MYSTERIOUSLY DIED IN HAWAII.  DON BOLLES WAS MURDERED IN THE STREETS OF PHOENIX. 

 MEYER LANSKY TERRITORY EXPANDED TO  MIAMI, FLORIDA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, BAHAMAS, AND CUBA.  SIEGEL RECEIVED LOS ANGLES  AND LAS VEGAS. SIEGEL MAIN TASK IN CALIFORNIA WAS TO CONTROL THE BOOKING WIRE.  DALITZ CONTROLLED MICKEY COHN AND USED HIM TO HELP SIEGEL. 

MEYER LANSKY MADE SURE THAT DALITZ WAS GIVEN A SPECIAL SEAT AT THE TABLE. 

  MOE DALITZ WAS A MADE MAN IN THE BOOTLEGGING BUSINESS AND NOW WAS A MAN OF HAWAIIAN " MANA". THE F.B.I. WATCHED HIM VERY CLOSELY AFTER THE 1929 MEETING.

 MOE DALITZ LEARNED THE SMUGGLING BUSINESS FROM MEMBERS OF THE PURPLE GANG.  THE  PURPLE GANG USED LAKE ERIE AND ST. CLAIR AS THE TARGET PATHWAY INTO THE UNITED STATES. 

THEY SET UP CARGO SHIP OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES AND USED SPEEDBOATS TO DELIVER TO DETROIT, BUFFALO AND NEW YORK. THEY SET UP A TRUCKING SYSTEM TO BRING THE GALLONS OF LIQUOR TO SELECT WAREHOUSES.

CITIZEN DALITZ STUDIED THE PURPLE GANG  MODEL AND IMPROVED ON THE EFFICIENCY OF SMUGGLING THE LIQUOR INTO THE UNITED STATES. THEY USED LAKE ERIE AS BOOTLEGGING ENTRY POINT. THE "JEWISH NAVY" WAS A NICKNAME GIVEN TO DALITZ'S  LAKE ERIE OPERATION.

 DALITZ  DEVISED A HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED SCHEME TO USE  UPDATED SPEED BOATS, SUBMARINE,  BARGES AND LAUNDRY TRUCKS TO DISTRIBUTE THE ILLEGAL WHISKEY FROM CANADA. DALITZ  WAS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF HIS OPERATION. HE WANTED A FIRST CLASS OPERATION.

 HE DEVELOPED A NICHE MARKET THAT WAS IN OHIO, MICHIGAN, WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA,  AND NORTHERN KENTUCKY. THIS ALLOWED THE PARTNERSHIP  TO MAINTAIN A LOW PROFILE.

 HE REFUSED TO INVOLVE FAMILY MEMBERS IN THE ILLEGAL BUSINESS. HE WANTED TO SHARE THE BENEFITS BUT WOULD NOT INVOLVE ANY FAMILY MEMBERS. DALITZ WAS RUNNING A HIGHLY PROFITABLE BUSINESS. DALITZ LEARNED THE LESSONS OF CAPITALISM: CAPITALISM HAS NO MORALITY AND NO LIMITS. 

THE MAGIC CARPET OF CAPITALISM IS MONEY. CAPITALISM REWARDS TALENT AND ABILITY APPLIED TO MAKING MONEY.

 HE LEARNED VERY QUICKLY THAT STAYING IN THE GREY AREAS OF THE LAW GAVE HIM LEVERAGE OVER LAW ENFORCEMENT. HIS PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPED A LOW PROFILE LIFE-STYLE AND EXPOSURE. HIS LAWYERS TAUGHT HIM THE VALUE OF CORPORATE ORGANIZATION AND SOPHISTICATED FORMS OF ASSET PROTECTION. 

HE MADE SURE THAT EVERY STEP IN CANADA WAS DONE LEGALLY AND FOLLOWED ALL GUIDELINES UNTIL THE AMERICAN CUSTOMER TOOK OVER THE LIQUOR.

 THEY USED  THE FAMOUS HOLLENDEN HOTEL AS THE HEADQUARTER FOR THEIR CRIMINAL EMPIRE. MOE DALITZ WOULD MEET WITH PARTNERS IN #281  LUXURY SUITE. THEY WOULD ENJOY THE POWER AND PRESTIGE OF A FIVE STAR RESORT.

 DALITZ DEVELOPED A LOVE OF LUXURIOUS RESORTS FROM HIS EXPERIENCE AT THE HOLLENDEN HOTEL. THIS WAS THE FAMOUS HOTEL IN DOWNTOWN CLEVELAND, OHIO. THIS HOTEL HAS BEEN THE MEETING PLACE OF PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES.

 JOHN F. KENNEDY MET WITH SUPPORTERS AT THIS HOTEL. THE HOTEL WAS KNOWN FOR ITS LUXURY AND SHOWBOAT ENTERTAINMENT.

THE SILENT SYNDICATE SHARED PROFITS FROM THE BUCKEYE ENTERPRISES IN 1932, THE LOOKOUT HOUSE IN 1941, DESERT INN OF 1949, AND NACIONAL IN HAVANNA IN 1953 AND LAS VEGAS GARDEN FARMS OF 1965.

THEY EXPANDED INTO NIGHT CLUBS, CASINOS, AND BOUGHT INTO REAL ESTATE PROJECTS. THEY LEARNED THE ART OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS. THEY USED TOP LAWYERS TO DESIGN CORPORATIONS TO PROTECT THEIR HARD EARNED PROHIBITION PROFITS.

 DALITZ BOUGHT SEVERAL EXPENSIVE YACHTS. HE USED THESE LUXURY YACHTS TO TRAVEL TO CUBA AND MEXICO. THE PARTNERSHIP CREATED A YEARLY INCOME OF $800,000.00 DIVIDED BY THE FOUR PARTNERS.

MOE DALITZ WOULD OFTEN JOKED THAT THE PURPLE GANG WAS A BIGGER JOKE THAN THE MAFIA. HE WAS LYING! 

AL CAPONE REFUSED TO MOVE INTO THE DETROIT AREA DUE TO THE HIGH MURDER RATE. ACTUALLY, OVER 500 MURDERS WERE NEVER SOLVED BY THE POLICE  IN DETROIT. AL CAPONE SET UP SPECIAL ALLIANCES WITH THE PURPLE GANG TO BRING LIQUOR INTO CHICAGO.

THE PURPLE GANG ROSE TO POWER FROM 1910-TO 1945. MOE DALITZ UNDERSTOOD THAT SENSELESS VIOLENCE HAD NO PLACE IN HIS PARTNERSHIP. HE STARTED TO WITNESS A BLOODY RISE OF THE FAMOUS PURPLE GANG.

THE PURPLE GANG AROSE OUT OF THE JEWISH GHETTOS IN THE PARADISE VALLEY AREA OF DETROIT. THE GANG MEMBERS WERE PRIMARILY JEWS FROM RUSSIA AND POLAND. THE FOUNDER OF THE PURPLE GANG WERE THE BERNSTEIN BROTHERS. ALL FOUR BROTHERS ABE, JOE, RAYMOND AND IZZY BERNSTEIN. WERE FROM NEW YORK.

THIS STREET GANG ACHIEVED CONTROL OF THE CANADIAN WHISKEY BUSINESS, EXTORTION, HIJACKING, MURDER AND CONTROL OF THE LAUNDRY INDUSTRIAL UNIONS.  MOE DALITZ'S FAMILY WAS LUCKY NOT TO BE DRAWN IN THE CLEANER AND DYERS WAR. THEY WOULD BOMB LAUNDRIES, FIRE BOMB LAUNDRIES, AND HIRED HIT- MEN TO KILL LAUNDRY OWNERS. THEY WANTED TO EXTORT MONEY FROM LAUNDRIES. THEY PERFECTED KIDNAPPING FOR MONEY. 

THE FAMOUS MIRAFLORES MASSACRE RESULTED FROM ETHNIC RIVALRY OVER GANG TURF. THE ITALIANS AND IRISH WANTED TO TEACH THE JEWISH GANGSTERS  A LESSON. 

THEY UNDERESTIMATED THE VIOLENCE FROM THE PURPLE GANG. THIS WAS A RUTHLESS GANG THAT SPECIALIZED IN MURDER. THEY KILLED THREE MEN  BY USING A MACHINE GUN AT THE MIRAFLORES APARTMENTS.

AL CAPONE USED THE PURPLE GANG AS PART OF MURDER, INC. HE USED THEM IN THE ST. VALENTINE DAY MASSACRE AND COLLINGWOOD MANOR MASSACRE. THE RUTHLESS  USE OF  HITMEN, MACHINE GUNS AND PUBLIC EXECUTION MADE DETROIT THE MURDER CAPITAL OF THE UNITED STATES. THE PURPLE GANG IMPORTED ITALIAN GANGSTER TO DO THE DIRTY WORK. EVENTUALLY, THE ITALIAN GANGS DESTROYED THE PURPLE GANG IN THE 1930'S.

CITIZEN DALITZ LEARNED QUICKLY TO MOVE OUT THE FIRING RANGE. HE HAD NO FUTURE WITH THE PURPLE GANG. HE MOVED INTO OTHER STATES AND AVOID DIRECT COMPETITION WITH THE PURPLE GANGS. 

IN THE  1930'S,  DALITZ PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPED THE CASINO BUST OUT MODEL. DALITZ USED HIS PARTNERSHIP FOR A HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF AN EXISTING CASINO. DALITZ ORDERED HIS PARTNERS TO USE ANY MEANS NECESSARY TO TAKEOVER  LUCRATIVE CASINOS IN KENTUCKY.  NORTHERN KENTUCKY HAD THE NICKNAME OF "LITTLE MEXICO"  AND WAS AN EASY JURISDICTION ON ILLEGAL GAMBLING.

DALITZ PARTNERSHIP TOOK OVER SCHMIDT'S BEVERLY HILLS COUNTRY CLUB CASINO, LOOKOUT CASINO, AND YORKSHIRE CASINO. HIS PARTNERSHIP USED FIRE BOMBING, THREATS OF VIOLENCE, BRIBERY AND OWNERSHIP SHARING OF CASINO INTERESTS.  THE COLLATERAL GAINS OF HOSTILE TAKEOVER WERE THE CASINO PROFITS, BAR AND RESTAURANT, ENTERTAINMENT AND POLITICAL CONTACTS.

THE MODEL WAS BASED ON A HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF AN EXISTING CASINO WITH UPPER-CLASS CUSTOMER BASE. HIS CASINO BUST OUT MODEL RESULTED IN THE TAKEOVER OF 14 CASINOS IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY. THIS BECAME DALITZ'S TAKEOVER BUSINESS TRADEMARK AT THE DESERT INN AND STARDUST HOTEL IN LAS VEGAS.

 DALITZ'S PARTNERSHIP RAN KENTUCKY GAMBLING CLUBS UNTIL THE EARLY 1960'S.

 DALITZ PARTNERSHIP  WERE TAUGHT THE VALUE  OF DEALING IN QUESTIONABLE JURISDICTIONS. THEY LOOKED TO ESTABLISH CASINOS IN AREAS OUTSIDE OF AMERICAN JUSTICE. CUBA BECAME LANSKY'S PRIZE!

MEYER LANSKY MASTERED THE BRIBE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT IN FLORIDA.  HE MADE SURE HIS GAMBLING OPERATIONS WERE PROTECTED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT. DALITZ DEVELOPED EXTENSIVE CONTACTS WITHIN THE LUCKY  LUCIANO GANG BUT WAS NEVER A MADE MAFIA MAN.

 THE ONLY REAL CAPITALISTIC FUNCTION OF THE MAFIA WAS AS AN  ECONOMIC CARTEL. THE MAFIA LIVED AND DIED FOR MONEY. 

  DALITZ ENTERED THE 1930'S DEPRESSION AS A MILLIONAIRE. THE TRUE PURCHASING POWER OF ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN 1930 CALCULATED  ON 2016 PURCHASING POWER IS $14,730,000.00. MOE DALITZ COULD HAVE EASILY ATTENDED HARVARD UNIVERSITY AND PAID $ 420.OO  TUITION.

 HE REALIZED THAT EDUCATION COULD NEVER COMPETE WITH CAPITALISM. CAPITALISM IS SUPERIOR TO EDUCATION AND EDUCATED INDIVIDUALS ARE NEVER REWARDED IN A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY. THE TEACHER IS THE ROLE MODEL FOR ECONOMIC FAILURE IN A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY.

 DALITZ HIT THE JACKPOT AS A FAMOUS BOOTLEGGER AND MUTLIT-MILLIONAIRE.  DALITZ HAD ACHIEVED FAME AND FORTUNE BEFORE HE REACHED THE LOST CITY OF LAS VEGAS, NEVADA.

 MOE DALITZ ADDED A NEW CHAPTER TO MACHIAVELLI THE PRINCE WHEN HE BECAME THE THE PRINCE OF LAS VEGAS.
