Stocks advanced today for the
seventh consecutive session with
the railroad issues leading the
way. Trading, though under
yesterday's volume, was mnrl.
erately active.
Early in the session the mar
ket wavered when trader, cau
tiously took profits in a sizable
group of issues. This selling
failed to bring any wide decline
and soon confidence was re
stored and the leading groups
moved ahead with the utility
average reaching a new high

An unidentified burglar was
forced to leave his loot of cigars,
peanuts and sundries behind
in a burglary attempt Monday
night at the B & E, 220 West
Main street, police reported to
day. Officers investigating evi
dence at the establishment yes
terday reported they believed
the burglar had hid himself in
the building until time to lock
up. After filling a carton with
cigars and other small articles
he was apparently stumped
on how to make a . get-away
through two locked entrances,
police said. Authorities believe
he must have crawled out a
transom over the front door of
the establishment, but found
the extra burden of his loot too
large for the opening.
Police reported marks were
found on the inside front and
back entrances indicating some
one had tried to use a glass cut
ter to pry their way out. $200
in cash was also reported stolen.
Police Seek Owner
1 Of 18 Lost Suits
Houston, Tex. (U.R) There
is a man in Houston who has so
many suits that he doesn't even
miss them when 18 disappear.
At least, that's what city po
lice are led to believe. A taxi
driver "just found" the 18 suits,
and no one seems to have an idea
to whom they belong. There are
no labels on them nor reports
from any Houston citizen as to
the loss of said suits. .
So if he doesn't need them
any more than that, they should
worryi

Chicago, Feb. 7--U.R) Cancer
is on its way out as a fatal di
sease, according to Dr. Clarence
C. Little, executive director of
the American Cancer society
Little told ACS state com
manders last night that cancer
will be reduced by research to
a minor cause of death within
the near future.
"There is no doubt we are
moving in the direction of find
ing the origin and nature of the
disease," Little said. "We are
not seeking a 'cure' for cancer
but methods of preventing and
controlling it."
In the last decade more pro
gress has been made In cancer
research than in the previous
200 years, he told the group.
This advance, he said, justified
the society's $3,000,000 cam
paign, scheduled to open April
1 to help promote research .in
the field.
