CITIZENS WARNED
OF new RACKETS

Cafe owners and merchants in
the City yesterday were warned
by the Wilmington Chamber of
Commerce to beware Of a maroon
eyed Negro with an inventive
mind, six Social Security cards,
a typewriter and an overdevelop-
ed yen for other peoples U. s..

This individual, unknown by
name to the Federal agents who
notified the Chamber of his advent
in this general area, apparently
makes his living by appearing in
beer-parlors and restaurants In
working clothes and cashlng
checks which bear the names OF
reputable local firms.
Claiming usually to be a chauf-
feur or truck-driver for the conf
pany whose name is printed on the
supposed salary-check, the ma
roon-eyed miscreant points out to
his victim that the company has
thoughtfully typed on the reverse
side a suggestion that the cashier
of the check demand to see the
bearers Social Security number
which is typed directly underneath.
Presenting six different num-
ber-cards, in cities from Ohio to
Virginia, the fraud-artist has col
lected approximately $500 in a
year, Federal agents report. His
checks always are neatly typed,
drawn on a local bank and inscrib-
ed on the face with the name Of
large local merchantile estab'
lishment. Often the dark-hued op-
orator disarms his victim by max
ing a small purchase.
