S. secret service, are combating the crime of check theft and forgery, according to J, Leo Nelson, vice president. Though exact figures have not been released, it is known that the annual loss is of such magnitude that extreme care on the part of merchants in 'the cashr ing of checks for strangers is necessary. Consequently, as a public service of the First Security Bank of Utah, it was announced by Nelson that the bank has printed a number of placards which are being distributed to retail merchants throughout the state. The placard, displayed promimernently by the recipient chant, serves a triple purpose; it will bring to the attention of the merchants that this crime condition is serious; it Instructs the customers of the stores to have complete and adequate identification prior to the cashing of any checks; and it fircibly brings to the attention of the purchasing public that they should exercise care in their financial habits.
