“A Roaring Concern’
Slain
mobster
recalled
United Press International
CHICAGO — Each year, a touch
ing memorial appears in Chicago
newspapers — a long-grieving fami
ly’s tribute to a man gunned down six
years ago.
Saturday’s Chicago newspapers
carried the traditional memorium
signed by the “loving wife and chil
dren” of slain mobster Sam De-
Stefano, reputed to be one of the
crime syndicate’s bloodiest butch
ers. The tributes appear each year on
the anniversary of DeStefano’s
death.
“Darling,” the family wrote, “the
silent tears are with us every day,
seems the pain just won’t go away.
You can’t come back, we know this is
true, but we know that you know
how much we miss and love you.”
The DeStefano case record lies in
a police homicide file gathering dust.
Any homicide cop will say, confiden
tially, that the case will remain open
but will never be solved. Such cases,
they say, seldom are.
DeStefano’s life was ended on
April 14, 1973, by two shotgun
blasts. At the time of the slaying,
DeStefano was awaiting trial on
murder charges.
He was accused of the 1963 slaying
of a reputed loan shark who was im
paled on a meathook, beaten with a
baseball bat, stabbed repeatedly
with an ice pick, shot and, finally,
stuffed in the trunk of a car.
DeStefano’s body was found lying
in a pool of blood in the garage of his
West Side home.
Investigators theorized the syndi
cate ordered DeStefano killed be
cause of his threat to “take a lot of
people with me” if he was convicted
in the murder case.
DeStefano, who allegedly headed
the city’s juice loan racket, was
known for violent outbursts.
Once, while being held in the
Cook County Jail, DeStefano went
on a rampage, destroying plumbing
and other fixtures in his cell and
screaming that he would have the
syndicate kill the warden, the guards
and their families.

WASHINGTON — It promised to
be a sensation — the best since
Watergate — when the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, under
threat of congressional subpoena, re
leased transcripts of the secret meet
ings it held during the Three Mile
Island crisis.
But instead of revelations of in
competence or cover-up, the 1,200
pages depict conscientious men con
fused about an event nobody had
planned for, angry at the nuclear
plant operators but trying to work
smoothly with them, and genuinely
worried about public safety.
Faced with technology run amok,

Unlike Richard Nixon’s Watergate
tape transcripts, there was no “smok
ing gun” evidence here, and only a
few expletives deleted.
But like those blockbuster tapes,
these pages show besieged govern
ment officials fretting over the public
relations fallout from their decisions.
In fact, the commissioners antici
pated most of the questions that
would be flung at them by the media
and the six congressional committees
now planning to rake over the NRC’s
crisis management record.
“I suppose somebody will want to
know, did we behave ourselves in
this particular incident?” com
mented Chairman Joseph Hendrie,
sometimes evasive in front of Con
gress but an authoritative voice
within the commission.
Aware President Carter would
appoint a commission to investigate
the affair, Hendrie told his col
leagues they could let the panel
come in “and then simply stand back
and order the staff to be fully
cooperative, and let it go forward,
and let the report issue as it will.”
There was no evidence, as some
had suspected, of a self-serving con
spiracy between the NRC and Met
ropolitan Edison, the utility whose
brand new atomic power plant failed
to meet safety standards.
Harold Denton, the NRC’s top
regulatory staffer, began criticizing
“Met Ed” as soon as he learned it had
vented radioactive gas into the air
Friday morning, March 30.
He accused plant operators of
“piddling around” and withholding
vital information, saying that the
data was very difficult to obtain.
Days later, Denton was, in effect,
running both the plant and the
NRC’s public relations. He stressed
the need to establish better working
relations with the plant operators.
But he also said the utility people
wanted to move too slowly in trying
to bring the crisis under control.
Commissioner John Ahearne said
an explanation of some kind was
needed for the “three-quarters of a
million people sitting on the edge of
their chairs, intense.’’ Denton
agreed.
Although a general evacuation was
never officially recommended, it
weighed heavily on the discussions
after the March 30 radiation release.
Denton and NRC safety director
Roger Mattson recommended
evacuation early on, but later agreed
it wasn’t necessary.
The commissioners also re
lentlessly questioned and second-
guessed the plant operators and
themselves on the possibility of a
devastating explosion from the hy
drogen bubble inside thei
containment building.
They worried about ri
levels in the air and in then
about news reports — mosti

They spent hours that first 1
