Stocks rise modestly after last week's rally and Bali attack
Stocks end Monday with modest gains for the third straight session after a strong prior week. The Dow rose 27.11 to 7877.40 and the Nasdaq added 10.06 to 1220.53 as investors weighed Iraq concerns, terrorism, and upcoming earnings amid thin trading and a Columbus Day holiday. Merck jumped 2.30 to 49.60 after a patent ruling against rivals, AstraZeneca rose 4.05 to 36.60, and Andrx fell 7.99 to 12.00.

Airlines spend millions to influence Congress
Airlines cut flights and staff but keep lobbying, with $27 million in political giving from Jan 2001 to Aug 31, 2002. After receiving $15 billion in post 9/11 aid, House bills propose mail and package screening for passenger airlines, funding cockpit door upgrades, and continued terrorism insurance. American Airlines alone contributed nearly $1 million to federal candidates and parties and spent $5.4 million lobbying since 2001.
