All-Famous Police Cases #6
The issue contains at least two stories: "Death and Destruction," in which a small-time gangster named John Ruscoe murders a woman named Ann Smith after she discovers his identity during a truck hijacking, leading to his capture by Marshal Jules Lawlor and conviction to death in the gas chamber at San Quentin; and an untitled crime story involving a character named Schultz operating an illegal racket from a drugstore on Twenty-Third Street, with criminals attempting to eliminate those who threaten their operation, including a man named Jack Diamond and later Bo Weinberg.
