Too Much of a Shock
Bandit Brings Money Back
MIAMI, Fla. UP — One of this
city’s slickest holdups solved it
self when the bandit returned his
loot.
Eugene Snyder handed a sack
of bills to the manager of a Flag
ler Federal Savings and Loan
Assn, office.
“This is the money I stole,” said
Snyder, and began weeping.
“I needed money for groceries
and medical bills. I was desper
ate.”
“I only needed $300. When I
looked in the bag and saw all
that money I was shocked. I
stayed awake all night thinking
about it. Then I decided to bring
the money back.”
Snyder was held on $20,000
bond.
Here's a tipoff on why so many
of us have money troubles: Only
four out of 10 U. S. families even
try to operate on a budget. A third
of these families confess they
can’t make their budget work.

Even doctors are finding it dif
ficult to keep up with all the new
“wonder drugs.” In the last 20
years more new specific drugs
have been developed than in all
previous medical history.
