RALPH CAPONE ASKS FREEDOM Would Have Conviction Set Aside By Supreme Court Washington, Oct. 21 —(U.R) — A1 Capone's younger brother, Ralph J. Capone, has asked the United States suifteme court to set aside | his conviction and sentence on charges of failing to file a proper income tax return account for all his income. Ralph was convicted before ATs indictment. The questions presented to the court yesterday are similar to those expected to be raised on Al's recent convictions when that case is carried up on appeal. Ralph was sentenced to serve four years in jail and pay a fine of $20,000. He was one of the first objectives in the federal government's drive to punish reputed racketeers by means of the income tax statute. His older and more noted brother said at the time of his own recent conviction that he hoped some way could lie found for Ralph to be at liberty to support the family should the elder finally have to serve his term. o Trustee Pleads Guilty Muncie, Ind., Oct. 21—(UP)— A plea of guilty to one of 17 embezzlement charges was entered by George L Hawkins Center township trustee, ,in Delaware circuit court.
