    MAFIA BUST BLITZ By MURRAY WEISS, New York Post
    In the state probe, NYPD investigators and prosecutors at the office of Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau have been eyeing labor kickbacks, bidding irregularities and no-show jobs involving the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers.

    Johnny Barbato, 69, a reputed Genovese captain who was the chauffeur and 'right-hand man' to the family's underboss, Benny 'Benny Eggs' Mangano, is suspected of being the point man in these activities, collecting money for the family.
