Roosevelt
son linked
to crime
WASHINGTON (Reuter)-A self-
confessed mobster told a congres-
sional committee yesterday that
Ellott Roosevelt, son of former
President Franklin Roosevelt, of-
fered him $100,000 in 1968 to kill
Prime Minister Lynden Pindling of
the Bahamas.
Louis Pasquale Mastriana told
the Senate permanent investiga-
tions subcommittee that he re-
ceived $10,000 from Roosevelt but
never made the attempt.
Mastriana is currently serving
an eight-year sentence on a stolen-
securities charge. He said he was
working for a consultant firm
headed by Roosevelt at the time
the offer was made.
Roosevelt was reported yester-
day to be in Portugal and not
available for reaction to the alle
gation.
According to committee investi-
gators, Roosevelt was an inter-
mediary in the alleged assassina-
tion attempt.
They said gambler Meyer Lan-
sky had been trying to get a gam-
bling license in the Bahamas. Even
though he had aided Pindling's
election, the license was refused.
Mike McClaney, an associate of
Lansky's, then approached Roose-
velt with the $100,000 offer.
Mastriana told the committee
that Roosevelt and M c C l a n e y
"came to me and offered he $100,-
000 to whack Pindling."
Mastriana did not make clear
why Roosevelt, once mayor of
Miami Beach, was alleged to have
been involved.

A magazine with that two-word
editorial policy has two terrific
advantages.
First, it enables the magazine to
attract the best reporters and writers
there are.
And second, it enables those
writers to write the most outrageously
brilliant stuff they've ever written.
Which is exactly what's
happening at NEW TIMES, the brand
new news magazine that is published
every other week, and is, we can assure
you, like nothing you've ever read.
In NEW TIMES you'll be reading
the best group of writers ever gathered
in one magazine at one time.
Jimmy Breslin, Joe McGinniss,
Mike Royko,,Sara Davidson, Larry L.
King, Studs Terkel, Nicholas von
Hoffman, Murray Kempton, Pete Hamill,
Dick Schaap, J. Anthony Lukas, Jack
Newfield, Joan Barthel, F. Reid Buckley,
Marshall Frady, Brock Brower, Nora
Sayre, Thomas Thompson.
NEW TIMES won't cover the news
in the traditional way, we won't
summarize it or review it. Our writers will
dig up new news. And present it to you
in words that jump off the page, words
that are unexpected, revealing, full of
insight. And irreverent.
We told our writers to turn out the
Watergate might ask the question, "If
Richard Nixon is kicked out of office, will
he be eligible to collect unemployment
insurance?" And when NEW TIMES
takes an inside look at John Connally,
we tell you "Connally didn't smoke but
he carried a cigarette lighter. He'd offer
a light only to somebody who was very,
very rich."
In short, NEW TIMES won't bore
you. We'll avoid the obvious and focus
on the stories and viewpoints you don't
expect, the ones conventional
magazines never think of.
We'll cover whatever we know will
interest you-politics, sports,
consumerism, business, crime and the
mob, labor, personalities, show
business, art, architecture, science,
medicine, daily living. There will be
special newsletters that, in themselves,
will be worth the price of admission.
There will be articles dealing with issues
of epic significance and pieces that stay
light, because we're going to entertain
you as well as inform you.
It's all just starting and we'd like
to enroll you as a Charter Subscriber
right now, with-a very tempting offer.
