Transcript

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 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.

For the past three weeks the Equitable Life Assurance Society has been offering members of this radio audience the famous fact-finding chart for fathers and mothers. And each week, as soon as the program ended, listeners began phoning their equitable society representative, asking to bring around copies of this chart.

Tonight, I'm going to suggest that you put off your phone call till next week. This Christmas Eve, equitable society representatives, like yourselves, are busy trimming trees, laying out presents, and putting up Christmas holly wreaths and mistletoe.

But next week, be sure to call an equitable representative about the fact-finding chart for fathers and mothers. I'll tell you more about it in about 14 minutes. Tonight's FBI file, the return of St. Nick.

The United States is a young country in the family of nations, but already it has its share of national holidays, holidays that belong to these 48 states. Those holidays are spaced from February to November, And of every one of those days, it can be said that they belong to the people of the United States exclusively.

That there is one legal holiday observed in this country that does not belong to us exclusively. Any more than it belongs to any nation. It too celebrates a birthday. A birthday which has come to mean much in the hearts of millions of people.

A birthday we call Christmas. It's fire opens in an FBI field office located in a large eastern city. It is two days before Christmas and Special Agent Jim Taylor has just entered the office of Agent in charge.
