....in addition to my previous post...if they were choosing a new Luciano family boss, then its quite possible that the NY Jewish or non-Ital mob had its own vote regarding the same matter, mainly because of their very close and long time alliance with the Lucianos, meaning they were important part of the family, similar to Chicago which was important ally of the Lucianos. I dont think that all of those non-Itals and their top representative were there just to send a message back home or simply regarding some operation, obviously because we also have reps from the other families. The same thing was in Chicago too, meaning whenever there was some type of important situation, again like choosing a new boss, the non-Itals had their own vote and seat on their own round table. Maybe the non-Itals didnt attend induction ceremonies, but they vouched for many future Italian members and sometimes attended dinners or parties after someone got made. That was the real American Mafia, and the Genoveses together with Chicago were THE prime examples.
