The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI. This is your FBI. The official broadcast from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigations presented as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community.
Tonight, while you're listening to this program, your telephone may ring. Yes, yes, yes, yes. What program are you listening to, please? It's your FBI, just starting. Do you know who sponsors that program?
Sure I do. It's my good friend's the Equitable Life Insurance Society. Just like Wednesday, my Equitable Representative told me about a special life insurance plan for men on the way up. Believe me, that's a great idea.
Well, naturally, I know that this is your FBI as sponsored by the Equitable Society. And in 15 minutes, I'll give you full information about the Equitable Society's plan for men and women on the way up.
Tonight's FBI file, the Henpeck Teeth. Crime as a business is in the midst of a great boom at the moment, with more than 5,000 major crimes being committed in the United States every day.
But do not labor under the delusion that those are 5,000 successful crimes. The prison population of the country is larger today than it has ever been, and it continues to grow. Even those engaged in a life of crime who have not yet been caught do not live the life of ease that popular fiction would have you believe.
But a criminal in choosing his career of crime has automatically sacrificed many of the comforts which you law-abiding citizens take for granted. The night file opens in a small apartment located in a residential section of San Francisco.
