TOBACCO STOCKS RAIDED SAFE REMOVED BODILY , (Per United Press Association) FEILDING, Dec. 19. Feilding's long immunity from burglaries was broken over the weekend, when the head office of Community Stores was entered and the safe removed bodily. It is understood that tobacco stocks were also raided. The safe contained about £2B, together with valuable business and private papers. Fortunately, the manager banked on Saturday morning, otherwise the loss would have been much heavier. The police are investigating.
