BURGLAR.PROOF BANK SAFES.
The term Burglar Proof Is often applied work tina.

be drilled broken forced This has effect where such
personal implicitly relied upon but tell the
banking community that proof safety depends entire
ly upon the price they pay and h for themselves only to
dictate how much or how little security they desire to have
We contend that nothing be made which the same
tools and the same opportunities that built cannot unmake
and any proof safe manufactured cheaply quickly
can be entered in the same ratio Of time.
