Salesmen ARLOW f NEAL HILLIPS SETON Y- SILVER NEETMAN YOUNG ee te ee a a \ of) \ \ If your car is stolen, how do the police try to find it? First, the local police force notifies its own personnel and phones nearby police forces. It then puts a description of the car on the telex to the Ontario Provincial Police in Toronto, and from there the informa- tion goes out to 150 OPP de- tachments and police forces across the province. If the car has not been re- covered within 24 hours, th &~ OPP sends the description of the missing vehicle to a data bank operated by the RCMP in Ottawa. This center collects information from across Can- ada. From Ottawa, descriptions are sent to the United States data bank, operated by the FBI in Washington. American police agencies, such as the Albany York State Police, obtain infor- mation from the center in Wash- ington. Thus, a few days after the theft of a car, police forces from Newfoundland to New Mex- ico are on the lookout for the car. ° TWO CHANCES However, this system does provide thi¢ves with at least two opportunities of going unde- tected. In 1966, 2,000 stolen cars were never recovered out of 39,000 taken in Canada. If each car 'was worth only $1,000, that's a $2,000,000 theft. First, it the thief can get out of Ontario within a few hours of stealing the car,. he will have almost a 24-hour jump on the Canada - wide police network. If he drives the car into New York State, getting it past border officials, he can go to a big city, such as New York, obtain forged title papers, obtain new licence plates, paint the car a different color and stand a good chance of never being found out. Second, he can strip the car and sell it piecemeal. In the words of Detective Ser- geant L. W. Spry, of the auto theft division of the OPP in Toronto, takedown operations are "a lucrative business for thieves. How does this work? The thief who steals.a car in Oshawa, Whitby or Bowman- ville might belong to a ring, or semi - organized gang of thieves. He might drive the car to a secluded spot in Ontario, Quebec or New York State, into a barn on a farm, or even into a closed garage in a city. COMPLETE STRIP Here the ring, some of them highly - skilled auto mech- anics, would take the car apart, including the engine, the fenders, the bumper, the headlights, the radio -- anything and every- thing comes off. The next step is to sell the parts as used car parts. A mem- ber of the ring simply walks into a hardware or auto supply shop that deals in used parts and sells them. In some cases, the store dealer may suspect or actually know the parts are stolen and collaborate with the thieves if he can make a high profit. If a larger crime organiza- tion, such as the Mafia, is in- volved, storeowners may be ter- rorized into collaboration with the thieves. The point of which is: if some- one swipes your car, he may very well not be a youth going for a joyride, but a member of an organized gang.

A teacher could deliver a lecture or do an experiment in one school and it would be shown to all schools.
