This is Your FBI: The Toy Bandits

The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI. This is your FBI. The Official Broadgast from the files of a Federal Bureau of Investigation. Presented transcribed as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community.

A-H-O. A-H-O. Are you thinking about a mortgage for your home? Then remember A-H-O. Those three letters stand for the Assured Home Ownership Plan of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. A money-saving home-saving plan designed to speed the day when you say our mortgage is all paid off.

We own our home free and clear. Interested? Then please listen carefully in about 14 minutes for full information on the equitable A.H.O. plan. Tonight, the subject of our FBI file armed robbery, its title, the Toy Bandit.

Through the years, types of crimes have remained in general the same. There have always been thieves, kidnappers, murderers, blackmailers, and so on. But crime detection methods have advanced rapidly. Science has developed new and more effective techniques for apprehending criminals.

Rarely if ever are the progressive steps in tracking down a criminal the same. Science supplies your FBI agent with his tools. But the agent himself, as is proved by tonight's case from the FBI files, must have imagination, intelligence and initiative to know which tools to use and when to use them.

That's why the men of your FBI are selected with much painstaking care. Those who finally pass muster command widespread respect and confidence. Tonight's FBI file opens in a wooded area on the outskirts of a large western city.

A man sits leaning against the trunk of a tree fondling an almost empty bottle, as a young boy quietly sneaks up behind him. There's no sense wasting bullets. You can't wipe again. Thank you. There's nobody else around to shoot.
