There are just over 7,000 bank offices in Canada, so on _ average one branch in seven was the victim of an offence last year. The 198 offences in British Columbia was an average of about one offence for every four offices. The province has about 12 per cent of the branches in the banking system, and offences were about 19 per cent of the total. Mr. Ballard said that while - ‘the continuing escalation in bank offences disturbs all bankers and law enforcement agencies, there are somé encouraging signs. The or-— ganized gangs responsible © for most bank offences a few years ago have virtually disappeared and now well over half of all incidents involve only one person. And about 18 per cent of all attempts are thwarted with- out loss of money and half of | all robberies net less than $2,000. om [1 12 ¢SPAARALANE AD COrnpaanne Mian AatpePIRARRRRErNARARDCERCCeTEDT -* + cag yen sid si oases NOEL EAE 3027 50 minutes from downtown Vancouver just north of Squamish in the ‘garibaldi highlands 80 x 120° wooded lots; with underground services, close to schools and recreational areas (skiing, boating, hiking, golf) in a CMHC approved subdivision. for information and viewing, call collect, to Anne McEvoy Visit ‘elther branch and talk to one of our loans officers.
