GANGSTER’S DEATH
ALLEGED WHITE SLAVE TRAFFICKER Press Association— By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, January 31. The ‘ Daily Mail ’ says that the death of Max Kassel exposed him as leader of an international gang of white slave traffickers whose ramifications extend from Mayfair to the Continent, Australia, and Canada, and as a marriage broker who installed girls he imported in luxurious West End .flats. It is learned that under another name he served a sentence of eight months in France in connection with the transportation of girls to Brazil. It is certain, that his death was a climax to a vendetta or gang feud. The London police are working on the theory that he was “ put on the spot ” because he knew too much about rival gangs and was about to “ squeal ” to the police.
