The copyrighted program created for Rio Grande. Who beats police calling all cars, attention all cars broadcast 237 at 1-2-0 East, 1st Street, Assistant Officer. That's all, Rosie. The man who appraises your car for a trade-in, not only looks at your car, he listens as well.
And believe me, at a moment like that you thank your lucky stars, you've been protecting its inner workings, for longing its life with real use. The lubricant that keeps the new motor young and a veteran vehicle from going old before its time. I tell you friends, real use not only safeguards the family car from unnecessary wear and tear, but brings it to the judgment day of a trade-in,
cleared of conscience and unashamed. Thanks to this great lubricant, your motor never gives in to the degrading influences of intense heat generated by your fastest driving and the hottest weather. Real lube places a protective arm about every vital point and the demons of heat haven't a chance. If your car has been associating with ragtag and bobtail lubricants that threaten
to take it for the wrong kind of ride, give it a new environment. Give it a clean bill of health with real lube, the newest and finest mover oil sold in the west. The story we're here tonight was taken from the confidential files of the Long Beach Police Department.
It is our privilege to present Captain Walter Lentz, Chief of the Long Beach Detective Bureau, Captain Lentz. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I have long agreed with the thesis set forth for this program the theory that crime does not pay.
The criminal is a serious danger because the rest of us do not take him seriously. If we realize that crime comes home to every man of us and not merely to the victim alone, we would take crime more seriously.
