CANTERBURY, England, December
24.-The Most Rev. Cosmo Gordon
Lang, newly enthroned Archbishop of
Canterbury, who is suffering from in
ternal Inflammation, was described as
being in less pain in a medical bulletin
issued this morning. The bulletin said:
THE archbishop'S pain is less today.
The Inflammation, which is in the
region Of the liver, appears to be sub
siding"
It was announced that it would be
necessary for him to remain in bed
some days.
Sir Hugh Rigby, the surgeon in daily
attendance on King George, was sum-
moned to the primates bedside yester-
day.
Although the archbishop had suffered
slight periodic attacks of pain for some
days, it was only after dinner Satur-
day night that he became seriously i'll
and the internal Inflammation devel-
oped. The prlmate was sufficiently well
Friday to attend meeting at Buck
ingham Palace Of the state counSelorS
who act for King George during his
illness.
At that meeting those of the Kings
household thought that he seemed quite
well, and it came as surprise to them
when word of the archbishops illness
was conveyed to Buckingham Palace
by the Rev. L. j. Percival, domestic
chaplain to the King.

Invites, but reports of abundant crops

Because of the abrupt break in War;
ner Brothers Pictures issues just before
the close yesterday, interest centered in
their action again today. The A stock,
having left off previously at 80, rallied
we'll across los and the junior shares
moved sympathetically. There was
nothing outside of the technical market
position of these stocks to account for
yesterdays sudden decline, which was
set down to the touching off OF stop
loss orders.
Other Amusement Shares.
Other amusement shares which were
Influenced by the break in Warner
Brothers rallied with the leaders OF
the group and Keith-Albee, Stanley
Co. of America and Fox Film A were
up from 2 to 3 points. The announce
ment of the $12,750,000 new financing
to be done by the last named company
failed to have any effect.
Operations for the rise in the cop
per group received added stimulus by
the advance in the price for the red
metal to IS cents a pound delivered.
It indicated a larger profit margin ana
the prospect for increased earnings
during the latter half of 1928. Ana
conda, Calumet & Arizona, Cerro de
Pasco and Chile we're the favorites,
while American Smelling & Refining
crossed the $50 level.
There were no developments In the
outside news to account for the buying
in the railway section, which was more
pronounced than at any time during
the past weeks. The bidding up of
such issues as New Haven, which was
taken in large blocks; Northern Pacific,
Great Northern preferred, Southern Pa
cific, Canadian Pacific, Atchison and
Atlantic Coast Line was attributed, in
some quarters, to the desire upon the
part of powerful stock market interests
to liquidate recently favored industrials
under cover of strength in the rails.
Representation of the Fisher interests
in New York Central was given as the
reason for the upturn of some 3 points
in that issue.
Inc motors were nOC aS prominent
on the side of the advance, although
General Motors at 207l2 was points
higher. Chrysler and Studebaker con-
tinued to improve, but were held in
check by realizing sales. Republic Iron
81 Steel was again the favorite in its
group. while U. S. Steel was fraction
ally higher.
Other Issues in Demand.
Low priced oils were in demand,
notably Barnsdall A, the Pan-Amer-
lean issues, Standard of New Jersey
and Tidewater Associated new.
Union Carbide & Carbon gained
almost 3 points, Brooklyn Manhattan
Transit was the leader of the traction
issues and Electric Auto Lite, on reports
of record earnings, sold up sharply to
a new high record.
