(Saturday Evening Post)
Texas banks have fared rather
hard at the hands of bandit?, robbers
and holdup men. During the past
eight years there have been, in that
state, one hundrofcand forty success
ful bank robberies, with losses of
well over half a million, and only
thirty convictions to show for all
thi? lawlessness. Ev?n the perpetra
tors of daylight robberies were hard
to identify and even harder to con
vict. Often they made a clean get
away nnd were not apprehended.
Some of the thirty convicted men
escaped; som? were pardon 1
others were paroled. Burglary in
surance mounted to prohibitive levels
and conditions were going from bad
to worse when lat? last November
some fifteen hundred Texas banks
pouted a notice that their association
would pay a reward of five thousand
dollars for each robber killed while
robbing a Texas bank, but that it
would not pay a cent a hundred for
live ones. The effect of this an
nouncement wag almost electrical in
its sudd:nness. Mr. W. M. Massie.
Pre?ident of the Texas Bankers’ As
sociation, writing in Banker’s Month
ly, tells what was accomplished dur
ing the first six weeks that the new
plan was in operation. During that
short period there were more arrests
in the state for bank robbery than
during the previous; two years,
