The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI. This is your FBI, an official broadcast from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, presented as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community.
Before opening tonight's file, let's give a few moments thought to a frequently asked question. Since these programs began almost a year ago, a number of people have written to the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, asking how they could become members of the Equitable Society.
They agree with the aims of the society and want to know what they have to do to join. Well, of course, the answer is very simple. When you take out life insurance with the Equitable Society, you automatically become a member of the society.
You become part of a great cooperative enterprise that is run entirely for the benefit of its members. Yes, the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States is a voluntary association of men and women who have joined together for security.
who, because they have banded together, are able to assure each individual member greater security than he could attain by his own unaided efforts. Tonight's FBI file, the corrupt city. Which of these two, standing before the Supreme Court of Public Opinion, would merit the severer judgment, the greater moral condemnation?
A professional criminal whose business is violating the law for profit, or he who occupies a position of public trust and uses its power to protect the criminal for a self-gain. It is eloquent testimony of the worthiness of a system of free elections that there is in America a minimum of corruption in public office.
