Green entered Presbyterian-St. Luke’s Hospital Nov. 21 suffering from chest cancer. He had been unconscious much of the time tn recent weeks'. He served as governor from 1941 to 1948. Green was a little known assistant United States attorney in Chicago’s racket-ridden prohibition I era when he took on the Capone case. He helped prosecute and • convict Capone and some of Capone’s henchmen on income tax evasion charges in 1931. His fame carried over into pri- . vate . law practice and eventually into polities where he later was to suffer charges of accepting bribes and graft himself Compared With Dewey Hi.s’’ first sorties into the state s turbulent political picture- was as ; Republican candidate for mayor of Chicago in 1939 against Democrat Edward J. Kelly. His backers compared Green with New York's Thomas E. Dewey as a racket-buster, and Green drew more than 600,000 votes though he lost the race. In 1940, state Republicans, convinced they had a powerful votegetter in the dapper Green, j awarded him the gubernatorial ’ nomination. He gained revenge on Kelly and the mayor’s powerful statewide organization by defeating Democrat Harry B. Hershey by more ! than 256,000 votes. Green won the governorship des p i t e the fact Franklin D. Roosevelt carried the j state by a 95,000 votes in the presidential race. Keynoted GOP Conv.
