The Frame



Good morning, Mr. Briggs.  In each of the accident's you're looking at, an important elected official was killed: two congressmen and two state attorney generals.  Their deaths had one thing in common: Their successors were, in every case, known to be favorably disposed toward organized crime.  The Syndicate has a finger in every other legitimate business.  Now they're moving into government.  This move is the brainchild of Jack Wellman, acknowledged head of the Syndicate in the United States.   He must be stopped.  Officially, he's beyond the reach of the law.  Your mission, Dan, should you decide to accept it, is to stop Wellman.  As alway, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will  disavow any knowledge of your actions.  This filmstrip will self-destruct when you stop the machine.  Good luck, Dan.
