During the 1950 election campaign, Chicago reporter Brennan discovered
that the Kefauver Crime Committee had asked Chicago Police Captain Daniel
("Tubbo") Gilbert to testify. Gilbert, a lavish spender, known
in Chicago as "the world's richest cop," was Democratic
candidate for Cook County sheriff. Because of his wretched record as a
cop, the usually pro-Democratic Sun-Times supported his Republican
opponent, John E. Babb. Under pressure from the Sun-Times, Democrat Estes
Kefauver admitted that Tubbo Gilbert had appeared at a closed session, but
he would give out none of the testimony.
Brennan knew how to get around that. He hustled off to Washington, came
back with the full transcript of Gilbert's secret testimony, but kept mum
on how he got it. Next day the Sun-Times splashed the testimony all over
the paper. Gilbert had told the committee that he had made his money while
a cop because he "bet on elections . . . bet on football games . . .
bet on prizefights . . . [and in fact] I have been a gambler at
heart." The Kefauver Committee complained bitterly about the printing
of the testimony, but the Sun-Times replied that it had published it in
the public interest.
Said the rival Chicago Daily News: "The committee suppression of
Gilbert's testimony cannot be defended ... A man whose account with
professional gamblers runs into thousands of dollars a year ... is not
going to be a tough enforcer of the law . . ." As a result of
Brennan's story, Tubbo Gilbert, reckoned an easy winner, was snowed under.
The Cook County Democratic crash also defeated Senator Scott Lucas, the
Democratic floor leader, and elected Republican Everett Dirksen (TIME,
Nov. 13, 1950).
