   and Runner Up Hit in 1923, “Three
        O’clock in the Morning”

The Wall Street bombing was an incident that occurred at 12:01 p.m. on September 16, 1920, in the Financial District of New York
City. Thirty-eight were killed and 400 people were injured by the blast.

A horse-drawn wagon passed by lunchtime crowds. The wagon then stopped across the street from the headquarters of the J.P.
Morgan bank on the financial districts busiest corner. Inside, 100 pounds of dynamite with 500 pounds of heavy, cast-iron sash
weights exploded in a timer-set detonation, sending the slugs tearing through the air. The horse and wagon were blasted into small
fragment.

.

•    A small group if Italian
     Anarchists were suspected but
     were never charged due to lack
     of evidence. Their motive was
     revenge for the deportation and
     jailing of some of their group.

•    The bombing caused renewed
     investigation into the activities
     and movement of foreign
     radicals, stimulating the
     development of the U.S. Justice
     Department’s General
     Intelligence Division of the
     Bureau of Investigation
     (forerunner of the FBI).

•    One of the Directors
     assistants, a fast-rising young
     civil servant named John
     Hoover, was put in charge of
     assembling all information
     possible about radical groups
     throughout the United States.

Ford Introduces the Model A in 1928
The February 14, 1929 Valentine's Day Massacre was ordered by Al Capone to eliminate competition from
George "Bugs" Moran's North Side Gang because they were encroaching on his territory. Capone delegated the
job to his murderous henchman, "Machine Gun" Jack McGurn and headed to his home in Miami to establish his
alibi. Mcgurn baited the Moran gang with the promise of a shipment of smuggled alcohol at a price too good to
pass up. The delivery was to take place at a garage at 2122 North Clark Street that Moran used to conduct his
business. McGurn distanced himself from the activities of that day by staying away and bringing in hit men from
the Detroit gang to carry out the executions. Moran himself was late getting to the garage and fled when he saw
the executioners, some dressed as police officers, entering the garage. Although he escaped, the damage was
done. Moran lost power and eventually control of the North Side.
•   Moran's men were lined up
    against the wall and the hit
    men opened up with two
    Thompson submachine
    guns, backed up by pistols
    and shotguns. Six men died
    immediately and one
    survived till he got to the
    hospital in spite of 22 bullet
    wounds, even reviving briefly
    before dying. True to the
    gangsters' code, though, he
    went to his grave without
    squealing. "I'm not gonna
    talk. Nobody shot me," he
    said before expiring.
