The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI. This is your FBI. The official broadcast from the bios 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.
One of the great days in a man's life is the day he pays off his mortgage and owns his home free and clear. If you agree, then be sure to listen to the main commercial on this program.
Our sponsor, the Equitable Life Assurance Society, has some interesting and important information about mortgages. You'll learn about the Equitable Assured Home Ownership Plan, a plan that's a real money saver and a home saver too.
Be sure to listen carefully. Tonight's FBI file, the Frustrated Mice. In the annual study with your FBI makes of the field of crime, this year's report verified one fact which has been true since the very first survey was started. That fact is that crimes are committed by criminals in line of business. More than 50 percent of the people arrested in the
past year showed records of previous arrests. And a recent study of the prisoners in this country show that once the person has been to prison, there is better than even chance that he will again be arrested after his release. Not that regeneration is not possible. Many thousands of prisoners are released every year who go out and live a decent law abiding life after
serving their time. But mostly there are people who committed their single crime because of circumstances. They did not commit their crimes for profit, or as a business. The hard fact is that once the man has been convicted of having committed a crime for profit, he will probably go on being a criminal until the very end.
