Crime Does Not Pay #37

1944-01-01 · 52 pages

This anthology issue contains at least two true crime stories. The first story follows Daniel, a soldier on leave who asks his wealthy Aunt Agatha for money to start a business; she agrees and he uses the funds to open the Hotel Claremont with a Swiss millionaire named Taegstrom, but Daniel's scheme involves robbing guests of their jewels. The second story features career criminal Joe Kart, a fifty-five-year-old burglar released from Sing Sing prison for the fourth time, who hides stolen jewels in his overcoat pocket; after committing another robbery and evading police, he is eventually recaptured and sentenced to spend his remaining years imprisoned. Both tales illustrate the editorial theme that crime ultimately does not pay.
