Tonight's FBI file, the Bogus Healer. Having recently completed another of its surveys into the field of crime, the Federal Bureau of Investigation now makes the results of that survey available to you, the listeners of this official program.

The facts marshaled in this study do not make pleasant reading, or whatever the economic picture might be in other fields. Business is booming in crime. Compared with the last pre-war survey, it shows that almost every crime is being committed from four to 68 percent more often.

It shows that the value of property stolen in the past year in the United States amounted to more than $119 million, or slightly less than a dollar for every man, woman, and child in the country.

In communities where the citizens took an active part in the war against crime, the figures showed an appreciable decrease. In the communities where the people regarded the local conditions as being a matter of concern only to the police but not to them, there was a marked increase.
