This is Your FBI: The Stranger

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 transcribed as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States.

And the Equitable Society's representative in your community. Friends, if you are covered by Social Security, you'll be vitally interested in how to turn that Social Security, which is partial security into full security. The equitable life assurance society will show you how simple and easy it can be.

So listen carefully in about 12 minutes to this important message from the equitable life assurance society of the United States. Tonight, the subject of our FBI file, Man Hunt, its title, The Stranger. Tonight's case from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation is typical of many.

Clothes are few and far between. You will follow step by step as your FBI agents trail them down. This brings up a point we'd like to make clear to our listeners. From time to time we receive letters asking whether these programs do not tip off criminals by revealing specific methods of crime detection,

thus putting potential lawbreakers on their guard. We wish to assure you that every program is carefully scrutinized at FBI headquarters in Washington, with this point in mind. No information that would give aid and comfort to the underworld is ever disclosed.

However, your FBI is grateful for your concern and interest. Tonight's FBI file opens on a main highway in a southern state. It is late afternoon as a young man stands at the edge of the road attempting to thumb a ride through a national park.
