DR.. Chas. b. Mayo says: Men fifty
years old and fifty pounds overweight
are much more likely to have cancer
than the normal This means then
that eating or overeating isca factor
In causing ANGER because half the
cases Of cancer are found In the stom-
ach and intestines."
'sTo sum 1t up, the overweights have
a higher death rate. At fifty years Of
age an excess weight Of IS pounds In
creases the death rate BY so per cent"

Prof. Irving Fisher and Or. Lyman

However, overweights have more
than the death rate to consider; they
must think Of their everyday life
their chances for good health. their

Trenton, N. j., March 21.-(AP)
Bruno Richard Hauptmann's
lawyers, showing increased conf
dence of saving him from execu-
ton, hurried preparations today
for q frontal attack on the testi-
mony of DIR. John F. Condor,
principal states witness at the
condemned mans trial for the
Lindbergh baby kidnap-slaying.
The defense hopes appeared to have
taken a sudden upward surge and
Hauptmann himself was pictured as
feeling certain he would escape the
penalty He is under sentence to die
March 81.
c.. Lloyd Fisher, chief defense coun-
sci, said he did not see how Haupt-
mann could be executed in view of
"the facts in our possession"
The defense hopes were buoyed ~
reports that Robert w. Hicks, spe-
cial investigator in the case, had OBJ
tanned an important affidavit from
Samuel B. Garlick, serving a kidnap-
ing sentence in the Florida State Pri-
son, which he said twill clear up sat-
isfactorily some interesting points in
the Lindbergh kidnap case"
Governor Harold G. Hoffman, mean
while, was still trying to arrange
with Dr. Condor for an interview to
clarity various points in the case
which the governor thinks have by
no means been settled satisfactorily.
