1:11
This one is the called the Lansing Froud Matter from Hollywood. It's time now.
1:18
Poor Johnny Doller, alright, cotter at Universal Adjustments. Jim, how
1:25
are you in a rush? I have to catch a playing in Tucson,
1:27
Arizona. Lucky you nice there this time he listen. One of our brokers
1:32
out there rode a fifty thousand straight life policy and a man named James Lansing.
1:36
Lansing dropped dead two days ago, and you'll never guess why. I'll
1:40
bite why mister Lansing starved at death one with a fifty five He died of
1:46
malatrition. Got the carner's report from Tucson right in my hand. Well,
1:49
if a man could buy a fifty thousand dollars policy, you ought to be
1:52
able to buy himself a square meal. Yeah, Johnny, Flight two or
1:56
three leaves at ten forty five? Are you interested at the airport? Jim?
2:07
Tonight and every weekday night, Bob Bailey in the transcribed Adventures of the
2:12
Man with the Action Packed Expense Account, America's fabulous freelance insurance Investigator, Yours
2:16
truly, Johnny Dollar. Expense account submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Dollar at the
2:31
Universal Adjustment Bureau Home Office, Hartford, Connecticut. The following is an accounting
2:37
of expenditures during my investigation of the Lansing fraud. Expense account. Item one
2:44
one hundred seventy eight dollars and thirteen cents caused a plane ticket Hartford the Tucson.
2:50
I shave, showered, packed, and got out to the airport in
2:52
time to have breakfast there. Jim Carter found me at the cashier's cage.
2:57
Hey, kiddo, you won't need a coat out there in As usual,
3:00
Jim Crater was bigger than I thought. A man who stands six foot five
3:05
always is a little ruddier, a little more blustery, but as efficient as
3:08
ever. I wrote a special delivery airmail to the Insurance Commission in Arizona this
3:14
morning and explain it worldwide. They wrote the policy, we're holding up payment
3:17
pending investigation. Are you going to tell them that in person? We'll be
3:21
out there as soon as the letter. Well, I like to be formal
3:23
on these things, especially with a state commission size. I just as soon
3:28
let them think. We'll get around to a routine investigation later in a week
3:31
or two. In other words, you didn't tell anybody we're coming, No,
3:35
I didn't. Maybe we can work at better this way. The faster
3:38
we move in and find out what's what and aren't bothered by anybody, the
3:40
better off we'll be. They give me a ticket lead June. Yeah,
3:45
sure, hey RL, thank you sir, Yeah, Johnnyette. Commission is
3:49
going to get formal sooner or later and ask a lot of questions, mainly
3:53
why doesn't worldwide honor to claim and pay off the beneficiary? So we'll have
3:57
to askt that on and get ourselves some good answers. Okay, yeah,
4:01
thanks pow. Has anybody asked that question here? The beneficiary sure, James
4:06
lancing sister named Arlene Kennedy. She called the broker and he referred her to
4:12
claims the vision at Worldwide and she called them a long distance and then they
4:15
called me. I told her, put her off for a while, telling
4:18
her it was just routine. Let's see, she's gonna be tough man.
4:21
She could be Johnny. I understand she has money of her own, and
4:26
she has some influence in and around Tucson, a lot of money. Yeah,
4:30
and trust she's very comfortably fixed. It'll watch yourself, get up.
4:35
It's missus. Kennedy's pretty upset by the whole business. Can't blame it for
4:40
that. James Lancing died on the street with no identification on him. By
4:45
the time police found out who he was, a routine PM who had already
4:48
been performed to determine cause you know, the county was going to bury this
4:53
guy with fifteen thousand dollars worth of insurance. Yeah, imagine that. Oh
4:58
excuse me, lady. The post mortem never happened unless Lancing dropped dead on
5:02
a public street. Yeah, I see what you mean. I requested the
5:06
coroner's office and two sons ahold of body until it will get something done for
5:11
a picture seatbelts. Oh yeah, yeah. The first thing that occurred to
5:16
me when I saw the pm plinning was that it might not beat James Lancing
5:19
at all. Chronic heart conditions, long history, the ability. Doesn't sound
5:25
like anybody worldwide would ensure Lancing took a physical before the policy was issued.
5:30
And of course he did. See if you got any material on his insurance
5:33
examination? Sure right here. Standard for James Lancing was one okay when the
5:41
policy was issued a couple of years ago. Malnutrition, long history, chronic
5:47
heart. How could he get in that bad shape in two years? That's
5:54
a pretty good question, Johnny, that the answer is going to be great.
5:57
Yeah, what's the exam? Have any physicians name? I see here
6:05
a doctor Carl Maylood Sweet nine thirty two, Valley National Building, Tucson.
6:11
He's our first job, Johnny, hey cut stewardess. Yeah, Well,
6:20
back to business, kiddo. It was a long trip and I spent most
6:27
of it going over the material and Jim Carter's briefcase by the time we circled
6:30
Tucson Airport at four forty five in the afternoon, I had the facts pretty
6:34
well in mind. Expense account item two three fifty camp fair at Tucson Airport
6:46
to the Pioneer Hotel. Jim Carter and I took a joining role. I
6:49
unpacked my clothes and got on the phone. A sergeant Younger at Tucson Police
6:54
had made the DA report on James Lansing. Yes he was in. Yes,
6:58
he'd be glad to talk to me. Jim Carter contacting the statematical morning,
7:04
let meet mister Doller. How he liked to cent. Well, I've
7:08
been here two hours, sergeant. Why, they're certainly nice, but like
7:11
this all through the winter months. It's a little warm in the summer though,
7:16
this Lansing manner. Yeah, it isn't really much to tell you,
7:20
mister dollar. One of the cards answered. The car man was found dead
7:24
in the doorway of a jewelry store about four blocks down the street. This
7:29
was a day before yesterday's sergeant. Yeah, I went down to the scene
7:32
and called the corner's office. No identification on him, so always started to
7:35
check him out. Took a little while. The time we got to make
7:39
on the corner had already performed an autopsy. Yeah, I understood that was
7:43
about the way it was. So tell me, how did you identify him
7:46
as Lancing? One of his prints matched up on our cards here. Lancing
7:50
was booked on a traffic beef year ago. Otherwise would still be trying to
7:54
make you're sure it's Lansing over in the morning. I wish sure his sister
7:59
came down identify him? Name m Kennedy. Yes, what did missus Kennedy
8:03
have to say about the cause of death? Nothing? That malnutrition bit didn't
8:07
do a thing for her. We all thought Lancing some sort of a transition,
8:13
you know, just some old bum until we identified him. Any witnesses
8:16
see him die? I haven't found any. According to the corner, he
8:20
had been dead an hours so before anybody noticed him at all. Happened early
8:24
in the morning, I see, say, did Lancing have any other business
8:28
down here other than that traffic violation? Nope? All right, who'd I
8:35
have to see to get into the mark off on the corner for you won't
8:37
be any trouble there. You want to go over now? No? Later
8:39
on? Maybe? Uh dollar? Yeah, death was from natural causes.
8:46
There's no doubt about that. Yeah, no matter how much you investigate,
8:50
you people are gonna have to pay off. Well, aren't you. Maybe
8:56
we just have to be sure one thing. What's that that we ensured the
9:01
right man. By the time I finished was Sergeant Younger. It was six
9:09
o'clock. I found a hotel and Jim Carter, busy in the fishing,
9:11
has always had already gotten the vital statistics on doctor Carl Mayhood Northwestern University Medical
9:18
School in nineteen forty, Army Medical Corps in nineteen forty one to forty five.
9:22
Doctor Mayhood's license to practice medicine and Arizona was issued in June of nineteen
9:26
forty six, married two children. Income and practice, according to Carter,
9:30
was average in person. Doctor Mayhood was a tall, blonde man in his
9:35
late thirties. He looked like he needed a week's rest and a few light
9:37
and you have an alarm clock around the house. Was a Garland man.
9:43
He was that. Yes, good bye, Yes, doctor Mayhood. My
9:48
name is Johnny Dollar. I'm from Hartford. I represent the Adjustment Bureau of
9:52
Handling Acclaim for Worldwide Insurance. Well what does that mean? I'm an investigator.
9:58
So my fourteenth, nineteen fifty three, you examine a man I'd like
10:01
to get some information about. I hope this won't take too long. Was
10:07
it an insurance examination? Yeah? The man's name was James Lansing. Do
10:11
you happen to remember James Lansing? No, I can't say that. I
10:16
do remember him, mister Dollar? What about it? Would I like to
10:20
show you the standard examination form? First? Is this your signature? Is
10:28
that your signature? Doctor? I suppose so? Yes, I don't know.
10:35
Aren't you sure? Well? How many people are certain of their signatures?
10:37
It looks like my signature, mister Dollar. I can't say for sure,
10:41
for it is a risin all right? What about these? Are these
10:45
notations on the form and your handwriting? I would think so, I don't
10:50
know. It looks like my handwriting. I can't say. According to this
10:56
form, you gave mister Lansing a complete physical and pronounced him sound. That's
11:01
my job as a doctor on these insurance examinations. Anything unusual about that?
11:05
As the Lancing died two days ago, doctor, there's nothing unusual about that
11:09
either. Did they send you all away from Hertford so I could tendue to
11:13
go back there and buy a book on heart disease. You can get them
11:16
anywhere in the country, the simplest kind, not even a doctor's book.
11:20
Read it, know it, and don't take up my valuable time. I'm
11:26
sure his patient, Lancing was forty one years old if he had no heart
11:33
condition when I examined him two years ago, and obviously he didn't according to
11:37
my findings, it's entirely reasonable to assume that he could have developed heart trouble
11:41
in a very short while, even the day after I examine him. You
11:46
people gauge those things in your premiums. Why do you bother me? Are
11:48
you finished? I take it you've had yourself a tough day, doctor,
11:52
and you don't want to be bothered with anybody. Look, I'm not here
11:54
to bother you. That's from what's on this sheet and what's happened. You're
11:58
on enough trouble to get yourself involved in a police investigation. I'm here to
12:01
try to avoid all that for you as well as me, and please don't
12:05
lecture me on heart trouble. Incidentally, we know the statistics by age,
12:09
race, color, climate, state, religion, occupation, geographical area,
12:13
and sex. It so happens we don't have to go into that. Doctor,
12:16
James Lansing died of malnutrition. I said, Lansing died of malnutrition.
12:24
I'll be coronist report. Look at yourself. Well you should know now,
12:33
was it possible for you to overlook that condition at the time you'll examine Lansing?
12:37
If he'd been suffering from malnutrition in any degree, I would have discovered
12:41
it and noted it. According to the coronist findings, James Lansing had been
12:46
ill several years. The lung and heart condition existed at least ten years.
12:52
Can you explain how you were able to pronounce some physically fit doctor? Nope?
12:58
How about this the angina condition? I could have missed that, but
13:01
it's unlikely with a degree of aggravation noted here on the corner's report. Have
13:05
you had much experience reading chest x rays? Doctor? Of course, alesions
13:11
reported by the KI. If there's been any lesions on Lancing's chest, I
13:13
would have reported them. I can't explain that either. Well, now you
13:16
understand why I'm here. Certainly I wish I could help it. You can
13:22
just let me see your file copy of the examination and the X ray you
13:26
took at that time. I'll have my nurse looked them up. I don't
13:28
keep files over a year old up here. We have a placed on them
13:31
the basement. Okay, I'll have them for you tomorrow. What time tomorrow,
13:37
as soon as possible, like to have them first thing. Doctor.
13:41
You're kind of on the aren't you. That's right, doctor, I'm kind
13:46
of on you, Johnny Dollar, Doctor Maho, I sent you a copy
14:07
of Lansing and Joints examination this morning. Did you get it all right?
14:09
Yes? I did, doctor, Thank you very much. Just looked it
14:11
over and I take everything's all right. It's an exact duplicate of the one
14:15
cent of the insurance company, and that part's okay, but it doesn't straighten
14:18
out matters on this case. I am not concerned with your case particularly.
14:22
I just hope you're through bothering me, mister Dollar. Not quite. What
14:24
does that mean? I want another hour of your time, doctor. I
14:28
want you to go over to the car in his office with me and look
14:30
at mister Lansing's body to identify it. I've got to know if he's the
14:33
man you examine or not. About an hour, doctor, I can get
14:39
an injunction, all right. Expense account submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Dollar,
14:52
location Tucson, Arizona at the Universal Adjustment Bureau Home Office, Hartford, Connecticut.
14:58
The following is a further accounting of expended jurors during my investigation of the
15:01
Lansing fraud or was it a fraud? Expense account IDEM three ten dollars loan
15:09
the Jim Carter, who was working with me on the case. Thanks buddy,
15:13
I pay it back as soon as I can cash check. Been so
15:16
busy I having that time. How's your doctor friend? I'm going to pick
15:20
him up pretty soon and go over to the Carner's office. I want him
15:22
to look at James Lansing and see if he's the same man he passed on
15:24
the insurance examination two years ago. Either we insured the wrong man or doctor
15:30
Mayhood examined the wrong man. I don't know which. How have you done
15:33
so far besides what I told you yesterday about doctor Mayhood? Yeah, well
15:37
he's in healthy financial shape, not bad, but you know, healthy.
15:43
His house halfway paid for, he owns one car upright, man has eight
15:46
months to go on another one, all of which doesn't mean anything. If
15:48
he phonied up an insurance examination. Rue you know, I've been thinking this
15:52
would have worked. But James Lansing died on the street in the city,
15:56
performed an autopsy deaf malnutrition for a private position. Without an autopsy hanging over
16:02
him. It could have been heart failure or most anything. Jim, I
16:06
think we can do whatever we want around here, step on anybody's toes,
16:08
make any kind of noise we like with this kind of situation to investigate.
16:12
We don't have to be careful. Lansing's bodies in the Morgue. There's no
16:17
doubt that it's him Exhibit A, but we aren't sure that his fifty thousand
16:19
dollars policy was issued legitimately. What are you getting to call the State Insurance
16:23
Commission, Jim. Let them know we think this is a bad one from
16:26
top to bottom. Let them know that so that when the beneficiary starts to
16:30
complain, they can tell her it might scare her and whoever helped her end
16:33
up being more ridiculous than they've been already. I'm gonna hold off, Johnny,
16:40
why till I see how you and doctor Mayhoold make out at the Morgue
16:45
expense account item for two dollars cab faired from my hotel to the Valley National
16:51
Building. I pick up a scowling doctor Mayhood, and then we drove over
16:53
to the carna's office. Mister Dollar, is a waste of your time online.
17:00
Sorry to inconvenience your doctor, but it's necessary. I suppose so,
17:03
and I suppose you have a job to do. But I have a job
17:07
too. Mister Franks, the insurance broker telephones me and says he's sending over
17:11
a man for a physical. I do the physical. It's immaterial to me
17:14
whether the man I examine is qualified for insurance or not. My job is
17:18
to examine him. It's up to the insurance company to determine it. Johnny
17:22
Dollar, this is doctor Mayhood. I believe sergeon's younger phone. Yeah.
17:27
Dollar, It's up to the insurance company to do what they want about the
17:32
examining. I understand all that fact. Then don't ignore it with your high
17:34
pressure tactics, because examination is the only part I have to do with his
17:38
business. I examine the man named James Lansing two years ago. You have
17:42
a copy of my findings on that examination. I stand on him and don't
17:47
forget it. I don't forget for one minute, nor do I forget that
17:51
what you've found and what an autopsy surgeon found there are completely different opinions on
17:55
Lansing's physical condition. Here we go, boys, there's the body polish effect.
18:03
Please, yeah, I'll doctor. I called my lawyer after you called
18:11
me today. I won't be intimidated, mister d You aren't being intimidated doctor.
18:15
You're being asked to cooperate. Then maybe I don't like the way you
18:18
west for cooperation. My attorney, you will be in my office to represent
18:21
me if you bother me any more about this look at this body. Your
18:23
attorney can't refute what's already an established doctor. You pronounced James Lansing in good
18:29
physical condition two years ago, and on tops of reports shows that when he
18:33
died two days ago he was in very bad physical condition, so bad that
18:37
two years ago he couldn't possibly have gone through a careful examination in your office
18:40
without some of the symptoms being detected by you. Where is your medical degree
18:44
and what response? Why don't you shut up and take a look and tell
18:47
me if you've ever seen this man before. I won't be spoken to it
18:48
that way. Just a minute, I'll get an injunction and I'll charge malpractice
18:53
and negligence if I have to. Oh on what round? You're being stupid?
18:59
Doctor. All you have to do is look at that corpse and tell
19:02
me if he's the man you examined in your office two years ago. Well,
19:08
I don't know whether I've seen this man before or not, or does
19:11
he look familiar in any way. I can't say I might have examined this
19:15
man. I don't know. This is James Lansing, doctor, the name
19:18
you filled in on your physical examination for the insurance I know that. Is
19:22
this the man you examine? I don't know. I honestly don't know.
19:26
It was two years ago. If I see a man for three hours in
19:30
the course of a physical examination, am I expected to remember his face or
19:33
any details about him two years later? Is there any way you can determine
19:37
whether or not this is the man you examine in your office? No,
19:41
not that I know. Is there any way you can determine it? Believe
19:47
me, doctor, I can try, and I did try that afternoon,
19:56
over the protests of doctor Mayhood. I took all of the personnel can I
20:00
with his office down to the moor a nurse, the receptionist, the x
20:03
ray technician and the laboratory worker. None of them recognize the body of James
20:07
Lansing. Expense a count Adam five ten cents. One phone call the Jim
20:14
Carter, who'd spent the day preparing the necessary forms for the insurance Commission and
20:18
gathering data on Lansing's beneficiary. You think doctor Mayhood was in on it.
20:22
He's too mad, too belligerent, Jim, You don't sound too sure,
20:26
male. And maybe he just strikes me as an an abductor. And let's
20:30
say Mayhood's way down to my list. He examined a man who said he
20:33
was James Lansing. It could have been anybody. All right, we'll want
20:37
to go that way for a while, any ideas I'm on my way out
20:41
to Lansing's old address. He had an apartment on the other side of town.
20:44
I want to see how he's lived out there. Still want me to
20:47
go ahead? The insurance Commission, Yeah, go ahead. The manager at
20:56
James Lansing's apartment house happened to be a woman, and I need a Reagan.
21:00
She also happened to be willing to go back down to the coroner's office
21:03
with me and view of the mortal remain there you are. Oh have you
21:18
ever seen this man before, missus Reagan? Yes, yes, Or that's
21:21
that's mister Lansing, Apartment thirty four. You're positive. Oh yes, I've
21:25
seen him every day for almost two years. Okay, I want to smoke.
21:30
I want to get out of here. I don't know why I'm acting
21:34
this way. He doesn't look any different now than he's looked before. I've
21:37
seen him stretched out like that one hundred times, I mean almost like that.
21:41
Oh s don't me. I mean, I guess it's because I knew
21:45
he was just drunk then, not dead. He was crazy, carrying on
21:48
the way he did. It feels good to be out in the sunlight again.
21:56
I'll take that smoke now, let's tell it. Oh, thank you.
22:07
Oh. Mister Lansing used to get up around ten every morning. He'd
22:11
look awful, but he was always kind of nice, polite, you know,
22:14
he'd be regular as clockwork. He'd walk past my door and dip his
22:17
hat and go right down to the store and come back a little while with
22:19
a sack of groceries, a bottle of milk for his cat, and some
22:22
doughnuts for himself, and some booze. Huh. And then he'd just locked
22:26
himself up in his apartment and stay there all day, drinking real alcoholic.
22:30
Well, I'd say so. At least I wasn't surprised he starved to death.
22:34
He can't live on whiskey. He was pride to the ears by noon
22:37
every day as long as I knew him. Mister Lansing didn't work then,
22:41
well, I think he tried to sell real estate once a long time ago.
22:44
Oh but how could he? I understand he was a retired engineer or
22:48
something like that. He pays rent. Oh, yes, I always seemed
22:52
to have enough money to get along. Did he have any family, missus
22:56
Reagan? Well, I know he's got a sister living in town somewhere.
22:59
What about his friend? They seem to do all his drinking alone. Say
23:03
you're from the insurance company, you should know about his family. Apparently there
23:07
are a lot of things we don't know. A man named James Lansing moved
23:11
into your apartment house two years ago. He didn't work, but he had
23:15
enough money for his rent and his liquor. He also had enough money to
23:18
buy some expensive insurance, very expensive. Somehow he passed an insurance examination,
23:23
and then he suddenly died. No one, nothing, just one beneficiary.
23:27
It's dallar. You don't suppose somebody just gave him enough money to get along
23:33
so he'd drink himself to death, do you that's one way of looking at
23:37
hi, Missus Reagan. Oh, my poor man, My poor poor man.
23:48
I spent another hour with Missus Reagan gathering as much background as they could
23:52
about the last two years of James Lansing's life. I also spoke to the
23:56
janitor of the building and two of the tenants. They all verified the that
24:00
Lansing had been drinking heavily for better than eighteen months prior to his death.
24:03
No one seemed to know why Jim Carter had a nancing. I talked to
24:07
our man in La Johnny Lancing lived there before he came at two cents.
24:11
He had several arrests for drunken us, never married one time. He made
24:15
his living as an engineer, finally got fired for drinking on the job.
24:19
It's just one of those chronic cases. First arrest was back in nineteen thirty
24:23
nine. How's the beneficiary holding on, sister? Yeah, well, missus
24:29
Kennedy was pretty upset when the Insurance Commission, not a fighter. We were
24:32
in town making an investigation and Dignan put out things like that. She I
24:36
don't know how long it it take. This all comes second hand from the
24:40
insurance Commission. Johnny a broken a. Hillary Franks sold the policy. What
24:47
have you got on him? Hillary Franks has represented Worldwide Insurance in this area
24:51
for seventeen years. You're stolen, kid. I'm sure I'm stalling, Jim,
25:00
because we're right down to the meat of it now, and it makes
25:00
me sick. There's only one person who stood to benefit by having James Lansing
25:06
insured. That's the beneficiary, his sister, Arlene Kennedy. So, Jim,
25:11
you know as well as I do. Somebody else had to take the
25:12
physical examination on doctor Mayhood's office. Someone had to help her arrange that,
25:18
Someone had to help her get Lansing signature on the policies. She couldn't have
25:22
pulled it off by herself without gumming it up. She had to have expert
25:25
help. Hillary Franks. Yeah, Hillary Franks, seventeen years broker Worldwide insurance
25:32
company. Okay, the salesman's the first one to come up a suspicion in
25:34
a case like this outside of the beneficiary. So let's get on with all
25:37
right, Jim One thing, but Hillary Franks knows we'll be looking at him,
25:42
and he knows he's under suspicion. That worry a little bit. After
25:47
seventeen years in the business. He should also know where we're going to be
25:49
before we get there. If he did something, he's Dumber's trying to work
25:52
a fifty thousand dollars fraud on his own insurance company. He might do something
25:56
even dumber. If so, what's the thirty h m. Yeah. From
26:03
now on, Johnny, you better carry this. There will be another intriguing
26:22
episode of the Lansing Fraud tomorrow. Tomorrow, Well tomorrow, there's a bit
26:26

a thirty eight. That's a pretty dramatic way to bring a serial to an
28:19
end or to a cliffhanger, and we will find out more of what's so
28:30
of what will happen. This one feels a little bit like it's moving kind
28:33

28:44
sent in the donation, I said, Adam, just wanted to tell you
28:47
how much I enjoy your podcast. I listened to a tones and especially enjoy
28:52
all of the Johnny Holler episodes. My all time favorite is Adventures of the
28:56
Abbots and wish there have been more episodes available. As a part of the
29:00
original TV generation in the fifties, I really find it interesting to connect to
29:04
so many early TV actors with these programs in supporting roles. Thanks again,
29:10
and from Mike in Anthony, Iowa, Well, thanks so much. And
29:17
The Abbots definitely was a great series and we have sixteen episodes. I definitely
29:22
I wish there was more. If you've not listened to The Abbots, I'll
29:26
encouraging you could go to archives dot. Great Detectives dot net. I don't
29:30
have it updated with I don't think I've got the Adventures of Frank Race in
29:36
there, but most of the shows we've gone throughout our history are there,
29:38
and it's a great resource to people to go back and listen to it if
29:44
you're coming in a little bit later program because we only keep an archive about
29:48
the last two hundred or so shows. Well, that'll actually do it for
