| Crime Investigation Committe’s |uphin fight to crack open the hard shell of the national crime syndicate has developed into a battle of ledgers-—and what's in them. Rarely does the present-day mobster use the old hat style of machine gun and 45-caliber pis{tol to conceal Skullduggery from] prying eyes. | The new gang boss, investigators say, is a “businessman” with well-kept books and records—all pointing away from what the committee seeks to learn.

some mortals who have nimbly eluded the swish of his scythe. There is an old gag about a man who fell from a tenth-story window onto a concreté pavement but got up unhurt.’ When the incredulous listener asks how on earth that could possibly happen,

the gagster happily explains that the fellow had on his light fall topcoat. Far-fetched? Maybe—but not much more so than actual expe-| riences of persons who have ot

Four-year-old Karen Weiler neglected to don her light fall |coat when she tumbled out of the ninth-floor window of her home, {last September. Doctors at New York's Belle~ | vue Hospital kept her under observation for 10 days then finally told her mother she could take her home. Karen, who landed in a plot of soft earth beside the building, suffered not the slightest Injury | from her nine-story plunge.

BROAD BACK TRUSS We want to demonstrate to

you absolutely without a penny in advance, our new Truss for securely and com(fortably holding any case of 'Reducible Rupture. If you are ruptured you should be interlested in our ability to fit you with a truss that will do its

- lwork properly and give you

the greatest ease and comfort possible.

Scientific and Practical This new Collings Truss is based on the most scientific principles for holding a rupture. There are no springs or metal parts used in this new truss other than the small ‘necessary buckles; instead it is: made of high grade elastic web with soft, pliable cloth back made wider so as to distribute the pressure over a broader surface. Prevents all cutting and chafing, and gives the necessary uplift to the pads.

It Holds the Rupture It is easily and quickly -adjusted so an even and uniform pressure can be constantly maintained -at any desired tension. The holding pads are lso designed as to give Specific | Point Control at the proper place to support and. hold with great ease and comfort.

It Stays Put When placed in position, the Truss stays put and does

"not skid or slide. Regardless

i of the position of the wearer's body; stooping, jumping or standing erect, the Truss re-| mains firm and set, and adjusts itself as the occasion demands.
