Between 5 p.m. on Sunday and 6 am on Monday thieves entered the office of the Tunvut Co-operative Dairy Company by forcing the door. With the aid of a powerful explosive, believed to be gelignite. They blew the door clean off a large iron safe, extracting therecfrom £6/9/ in cash, but leaving cheques and stamps intact, as well as 8/ in an envelope belonging personally to the manager. The valuable safe was damaged beyond repair, which is the great loss to the company, books and other safe contents being undisturbed. Another safe alongside, which contained no property of value to thieves, was left unlocked, but the contents were ransacked by the intruders, without removal of anything. The method adopted to blow open the safe was place plaster of paris around the edge of the door and over the lock. A holo was drilled through the latter and a fuse inserted to reach the explosive in the keyhole. Police believe the work to be that of experts. They have a clue and are investigating. _(Ref- Albury Banner and Wodonga Express (NSW : 1896 - 1938)(about) Previous issue Friday 17 January 1930 Next issue Previous page Page 13).

This is the first case of professional safe blowing known in Tumut for very many years and confirms the Police are convinced that criminals are now extending their operations to country centres, Tumut being 300 miles from Sydney and 400 from Melbourne cities. _(Ref- Albury Banner and Wodonga Express (NSW : 1896 - 1938)(about) Previous issue Friday 17 January 1930 Next issue Previous page Page 13).
