x'onies tr"ua.snorted on days other then payday are suffi-

on paydays. This would provide protection in the event
of a hold-up, and in addition, the guard could monitor the
lines of people waiting; to enter the office to prevent their

nendation was duly considered. However, it is
felt that perhaps a lees elaborate syatcn than that pro ?posed
by APT which would be less expensive to the Credit Union
could be installed. It is the opinion of the Board of
lirectore of the Credit Union that the roeults to be obtained
did not justify the cost. The some amount of funds invested
in robbery and. burglary insurance would t ive far better- pro-
tection of Credit Union assets than would the APT alarm
system,* if a robbery occurred, the .".v ds would be restored.
fnco Credit Union is covered up to 70,000.00.
The security inspection made b,,,. your Office and the recommendations
made are greatly appreciated. Please advise if the action taken is not
completely satisfactory for each recommendation*
