Between January and November 1966, Marcus and Attorney Herbert Itkin, 41, a close friend and business associate, conferred a number of times with Tony Ducks and Bakery Union Official Daniel J. Motto, 57, who has close connections with politicians and the Mafia. These two men apparently advised Marcus to award the "emergency" reservoir-cleaning contract to S. T. Grand, and both served as negotiators with Grand. The kickback-5% of the total contract fee-was divided as follows: Marcus, $16,000; Itkin...
