From time to time in their 30s and early 40s, most men and women ask themselves, What will I be doing when I am 65 years old? What are my chances of being 100% self-supporting when it's time to stop work?

Well, that's largely up to you and the decision you make right now. One such opportunity for an important decision will be offered to you in our middle commercial. It tells about the Equitable Society's independent 60s plan.

This plan means exactly what it says, financial independence for you in your 60s. Do you like that idea? Then please listen carefully to this important message from the Equitable Society coming in about fourteen minutes.

Tonight, the subject of our FBI file, Marriage Swindle, its title, The Runaway Corpse. In very ancient days, the fate of every woman was the same. She did the hard labor for the family, and her status was little more than that of a slave.

In certain of the older civilizations, it was unknown for a woman to sit and eat at the same table as the male members of the group. Those taboos and other similar customs have of course been discarded.

Today women have attained the highest ranks in science, art, literature and business. Every year more and more members of the female sex find themselves in responsible positions once held exclusively by men. No field of endeavor has remained close to the women of America and that statement unfortunately includes the field called crime.
