Those are basically rackets they could have had in any town. Kind of hard to believe that NY agreed to let the midwest families have Vegas when AC allowed casinos. I guess at the time they thought they were going to get their hands into AC like they did Vegas in the '30s.
Chicago was the single most powerful family at the time, plus they had most of the midwest families under their thumb. The midwest had the teamsters. More than likely the genovese learned to hide their boss like chicago seeing that chicago was doing that since the 40s and they collaborated with each other
