	Eliot Ness - from The Crime Library
		With a new group of "Untouchables," Eliot Ness went right on fighting the mob for another decade: staging daring raids on bootleggers and illegal gambling joints, catching criminals with his bare hands, and generally putting organized crime on the run.

		Eliot Ness was so much more than just the courageous guy who battered down the door of Capone's biggest brewery.

		Ness is best known for putting Al Capone out of business in Chicago during the nine-year-long Prohibition Era beginning in 1920.
		The lifelong dream of Eliot Ness was to join the FBI but this was not to be, thanks mostly to the paranoid jealousy of Director J. Edgar Hoover, who considered Ness a dangerous and reckless vigilante.
		Ness has been drawn up bigger than life and is even said to be the inspiration for the comic strip "Dick Tracy." I think when Kevin Costner portrayed Ness in the 1987 film, "The Untouchables," that pretty much cinched the deal.

	RETURN OF NESSIE - by John Herrington
		Crime was rampant, corruption was the norm, and Eliot Ness was brought in as safety director with what author Heimel calls "a frontier marshal image" after his battles with Al Capone in Chicago.
		Ness, they said, had 5,000 bootleg cases filed against Capone for Prohibition violations, but the lawyers decided to go with their tax case first.
		One problem, he told the group at the Eliot Ness get-together, is "many of the files on the cases are gone and many of the newspaper stories from the murders are wrong."

		In the hospital, Eliot Ness can't see anything-- even though Dr. Samuels says there is nothing physically wrong with his eyes; the stress of almost being blown up by a grenade makes Ness go through a period of psychosomatic blindness.

		The purpose of this essay is to reacquaint people and in some cases to introduce others to another police officer who lived long before Eliot Ness and who went head to head on a daily basis with some of the most violent, sadistic murderers, arsonists, extortionists, bomb-throwers and top-echelon gangsters of his time.
		He, too, should be a household name like Eliot Ness, but sadly he has been largely ignored in the country he adopted and loved as his own.
