TWENTY-SEVENTH EDITION

provide law enforcement agencies with up-to-date data on what to expect in the modern-day thief.

For one thing, the study showed that officers should not expect to find a hardened criminal at the root of many bank crimes. Respectable busi- ness men, youths with no past crim- inal records, and even persons ment- ally incompetent have turned to bank robbery to solve financial difficulties.

The robber with no past record will look for a federally-insured bank, the study said, because he feels the depositors won’t be hurt.

Fifty per cent of the time to- day’s bank bandit prefers to work alone.

“The lone operator,” the. F.B.I said, “has become important in this field of criminal activity where the organized gang once held sway.”

Thing of the Past

Disguises also are becoming a thing of the past.

In the 100 cases studied only seven bandits wore masks. One used soot to make his complexion darker and an- other wore a false nose so ridiculous that the bank teller thought he was a prankster and answered his demand for money by handing him a penny. The bandit fled.

But not all of today’s bank criminals are so timid. There still is a large element of the hard-core professional left.

In one of the seven cases studied where guns were used, the assistant manager of a Louisiana bank was killed and the manager wounded.

“This proves that although the trend is away from assaulting, kid- napping and killing bank employees, it often proves unwise for a person to offer resistance,” the bureau said. * *

Omaha's Store Personnel Preview Possible “Customers”

POLICE and merchants of Omaha. Nebraska, are co-operating in a new approach to crime prevention in stores. Full-length color slides of known bad-check passers, pickpockets, and shoplifters are being circulated among store personnel.

A police inspector came up with the idea, but the department had no funds to put the plan into effect. Retailers provided the money.

Now the pictures are shown at meet- ings of store employees, and the law- breakers’ methods of operation are described. Thus briefed, the store workers should be able to spot these criminals when they enter the store, and so put preventive machinery into operation. * *
