Success in burglary, as in other fields of human endeavor, depends on keen awareness of changing values. In London's Mayfair last week, a promising burglar broke into the apartment of Adman Patrick Dolan and took:
One large ham; some imported canned peanuts, hamburger and chile con carne; Dolan's butter and fat ration for the week; all cigars and cigarettes; some French and Swiss chocolate (he scorned some American Hershey bars); several bottles of rye and Noilly Prat vermouth; some razor blades; eight suits; pajamas, shirts; two dozen towels, bed sheets; portable typewriters, clocks; and all of Dolan's soap. He wasted no time on the flat's expensive furniture, paintings and silver.
