Crime Does Not Pay #115
This issue contains two crime stories. "Terror on Loon Street" follows a criminal named Varger who murders a man and attempts to frame an innocent person by planting a tape recorder with a confession; however, detectives discover the deception and Varger is caught, proving that crime does not pay. The second story depicts two criminals, Gat and Joe, who steal cargo from a ship and attempt to escape, but are tracked down by police at the dock; both criminals are captured and sentenced to ten years hard labor, with the final caption reiterating that their crimes could not pay.
