The part-tiIne counterfeiter
who has access to a modern
printing plant presents a grow
ing problem for the United
States Secret Service.
Secret Service Chief James
]. Rowley said in an annual
report yesterday that some
printing-plant employees have
been "using such equipment
after normal working hours
without either the consent or
the knowledge Of their en-
ployers."
He said these supposedly
trustworthy workers accounted
for much Of the counterfeitine
activity during the fiscal year
which ended June 80.
"A secret Service official said
a counterfeiter using modern
equipment could produce q
plate, run off a stable amount
Of bogus currency and then
destroy the plate-all in the
matter Of a few days or even
hours.
Modern Processes
Photographic plates used in
modern offset printing are
quickly made and easily de-
stroyed. Such equipment is in
widespread use in commercial
printshops.
I'VE even had one case where
a counterfeiter rented machin-
cry, used 1t to manufacture bills
and then returned the machine
b fore leaving town." the
spokesman said.
Mr.. Rowley said his agents
seized $2,845,823 in bogus money
during the fiscal year before
the phony currency was passed
He said $548,400 in fake bills
was spent and represented q
loss to the public. The figures
for the preceding year were So
SGT ,020 and $567 1896.
Secret Service agents arrested
662 persons in counterfeit cases
compared to 7S7 in the 1862
fiscal year.
Although the amount Of fake
money turned up by the Secret
Service was lower than in the
previous year, Mr.. Rowley SAID
that 1t did not represent q
trend. He noted that in June
81, 038,000 in $40 notes was
seized in North Carolina, anc
about three weeks later, after
the close of the fiscal year
