Mr. Griffin. Were Jack and Abe Weinstein friendly?
Mr. Crafard. No; I wouldn’t say so.
Mr. Griffin. How did Jack happen to hire Little Lynn through Abe?
Mr. Crafard. He needed a girl, and Abe had one that he didn’t need, and he knew Jack needed girls through the union setup, so he told Jack about her, brought her over and introduced her.
Mr. Griffin. Had Little Lynn been a stripper at Abe Weinstein’s place?
Mr. Crafard. I understand she was an amateur.
Mr. Griffin. Did you ever talk with Jack about the amateur nights that Weinstein had?
Mr. Crafard. There was some—I wouldn’t say actually I discussed it with him. I should say he told me about it.
Mr. Griffin. What did Jack tell you?
Mr. Crafard. Well, the fact that he—the unions had sent out an order for the clubs to stop the so-called amateur night, and Ruby had done so, but the other clubs in town hadn’t, and they had failed to comply with the union order, and nothing had happened about it.
