If I repeat something... don't whack me. Bumpy worked for Madame Queen. At the time the numbers racket was beginning to become very lucrative. The Dutchman began to encroach on black and latino operations in Harlem. Many folded to his will but the Queen never yielded. Fast forward and the Commission kills Dutch. Once he is dead Lucky sends an emissary with a message for Bumpy that he wants a 'sit down '. At the meeting Lucky tells Bumpy that the mob is taking over Schultz' interest and that Bumpy can remain independent but that he would also be the official Genovese representative in Harlem. He never paid tribute to the Cosa Nostra but I think he also functioned as an outlet for heroin distribution and as a farm team for 'off the record' hits.

I have a lot of info...
