Authorities Proceed on Theory

Determined to bring to an end
wholesale bank robberies in North
Dakota, police today continued their
search for four bandits who held up
the Farmers and Merchants State
bank at Hurdsfield Thursday and es-
capped with about $4,000 cash.
Working on the theory that the
bandits are affiliated with an organ
lied band Of criminals who have set
out to make extensive raids on banks
in this state, authorities pursued
every possible clue in an effort to rid
the state Of robber gangs.
The search for the raiders was un-
der way by police in the vicinity OF
Rugby. It Is believed the quartet
that looted the Hurdsfield bank may
be hiding in the hills in the vicinity
Of Rugby, and several parties were
making an extensive search Of the
countrywide.
Suspect Chicago Gangsters
Indications that organized crime
has moved into North Dakota caused
police to redouble their search fo1
raiders Of half a dozen banks In this
state In recent months.
Police considered a theory that

The BUYING

am told that the buying dur.
ing Saturdays weakness came
from the same big interests that
turned the market up during the
August sinking spell. This may
be so, but it is a question whether
this wasn't mainly refenSive to
prevent the reaction from getting
out of hand.
Saturdays rally was as much
due to an oversold condition as
to anything else. The bears saw
good profits and began taking
them.
The outstanding bullish develop
ment market-wise has been the in
creasing public interest In the
last two weeks. Public buying
has been smarter than in the past.

good stocks and generally waiting
for reactions. This provides an
additional cushion to the market
on dips.
The old pool in Indian Refin-
ing seems to be at work again.
The story of the company's new
refining process is being revived
as well as the old tale of a pos
sible merger with the Texas Cor
poration. Strength of the stock

action alone. Indian looks like
a speculative play but be sure to
limit your losses, and don't wait
for big profits.

the current quarter will probably
be off sharply from the record
