Continued from Page D tacks upon the power station and submarine base.
 "A number of high explosives fell on the submarine base, starting a flre," the communique said.
 The attack upon desert conveys northwest of Giarabub was carried out by both fighter and bomber planes, some of them coming down to low levels and causing "consid- erable damage"
 A low-level assault was made on the Fascist airf1eld at Martuba, southeast of Derna where II SS79'S and several CRAPS were discovered on the ground. Two of the SS79's were set afire and the others badly damager, the RAF reported. Two SS79'S were found On the ground at GaZala, one being severely dam aged and the other being found already unserviceable.
 At the Tmimi landing field seven SS79's which had been set afire in a previous RAF raid were noted.
 The RAF also made fresh attacks upon the defenses and military ob- jectives of Tobruk.
 Mechanical Advance
 Mechanical advance British skirmishers slashed at Italian com munications lines west of Tobruk in the region between that base and Derna, 130 miles deeper in Libya.
 At the same time the first suc- cessful action of Ethiopian rebel forces against the Italian occupa- ton troops was reported.
 The rebels attacked an Italian garrison at Gubba, just north of Kenya Colon, and were reported closing in on the fleeing Italian garrison.
 On Italian Africa's northern front British patrols driving in from anglo-Egyptian Sudan forced the Italians to abandon a post northeast of Kassala and then occupied the position themselves.
 There was no indication here wether the spurt of British and Ethiopian action against Premier Benito Mussolini's East African Empire was 8 prelude to an import ant drive similar to that already in progress against Libya. Philippians Aided
 The Ethiopian forces, it was re- vealed, are being aided by support from the Royal Air Force.
 The high commands announce ment said:
 Tn Abysinia patriots encouraged by support from the Royal Air Force compelled the Italians to evacuate the post of Gubba. The patriots are now closing in around the fleeing Italian garrison. In Kenya nothing important to report"
 l The reports of action on these fronts came as Britain's desert forces advised that flies, blowing sand and heat were the worst enemies they have encountered in their drive a. gainst the Italian forces.

officers designated to represent them; production experts of the national defense commission, and top-rank.ng members of congress as ex-officio members.
 Agreement on all parts of the legislation was unders .ood to have been reached and if the commission plan is ironed out today at a series of scheduled conferences, the bill may be ready for congress tomor- row.
 With the presidents state of the union and budget messages out of the way, Congress is ready to go to work on the "as serious as war itself" problems outlined by MT. Roosevelt.
 The general Congressional reac- tion to the proposed expenditure Of $17,485 ,528, ,049 ir fiscal year 1942 for regular and total defense" expen- ditures was favorable, but there was a cool reception to his proposal to remove the statutory debt lim- it. Even Democratic members of the House ways adn means committee, usually response to the presidents wishes, disapproved of this sugges- tion and were joined by Sens Harry F. Byrd, D., Va, Willard E. Tyd- ings, D., Md, and Arthur H. Van- denberg, R., Mich.--all advocates ot economy.
 Carries No Limit
 The British-aid bill will carry no limit on appropriations, 1t was learned, being merely an authoriza- tion measure. But Congress will be asked for the cash later.
 Thus while Congress will still control the purse strings, the grant of power to the president was de- scribed by one leader as "the broad cast kind of blank check authority" !" He added that there was no other way of doing the job.
 Senate Democratic Leader Alben w. Barkley said he understood the

 Another group of demonstrators it was reported, gathered in front of the U. s. Embassy building in the Place De La Concorde. They assembled outside the high iron grilled fence, shouting, "Vive Roose- Velt!", "Vive L. Aramrique!" and ~Vive l. Angleterre."
 German troops, aided by Paris police, it was said, finally dispersed them.
 Nazi Officers Abused
 Meantime, according to this &C., count, anti-Nazi and pro British or pro De Gaulle demonstrations spread to the Latin quarters, espe- cially to the student cafes ln the Boulevard St. Michel Three Ger man officers, it was said, were thrown through plateglaSs windows by the angry students. Small scale disorders also were said to have oc- cured in the LaVillette and Belle vile quarters.
 German occupation authorities, it was Said,' ordered the Paris meat supply cut off for two days as pun ishment for the outbreak. They also were said to have forced the Vichy government to remove M. Gustave Roussy, rector of the

 Westward of Tobruk, the next Italian base, and possible British objective, could be Derna, 100 miles by road along the coast past the Jebel Akhdar or Green mountain range, whose hills, following the curve of the coast, rise to 2,OO0 feet. Twenty thousand Italian colonists had settled on the vegetated land in this area.
 Germany Admits It
 Berlin, January g. (UP) - British planes last night bombed a northwest German coastal area, killing II civilians and wounding IA others, the German high com- mand said ina communique today.
 (In London the British said their planes last night bombed Emden, land)
 The British raiders dropped ex- plOo1tC dIlo uICC1O1dGy UOAuJo, L4AC night command said, but itchy hit mainly residential districts" It was admitted that at one point damage was done to an industrial plant.
 The communique said that yes terday a heavy German bomber at tackled an armed merchantmen of about 10000 tons 300 miles west of Donegal Bay, Ireland.
 ''The ship lay motionless and blaz- ing with smashed side after heavy bomb hits" the high command said.
 It said that despite bad weather the air force yesterday made a number of individual raids against the British Isles, but was asserted that a motor factory near Coventry was attacked from only 300 feet. A military camp on the south coast of England was effectively bambed."

 Asked By Govt.
 = He said his company had been asked by the government to under take the organization and manage ment of one of several government built plants in the midwest for con- Etruction of four -engined bomberS in large quantities.
 ' "The size of the plant outlined to us will require the employment of 10000 persons" he said.
 The plane which would be pro- duced is Consolidated Aircraft'S B. s24 bomber, powered by four l,20O Horsepower motors, and designed to earry four tons of explosives or in- Hendiaries and crew of nine. ~ Experts said it was one of the most powerfule warplanes in the world and one of the fastest, with a speed of 300 miles an hour. It has a range of 5000 miles which admir- ably suits it for continental defense. e A high-winged monoplane, it has no 'Solind spots: I. E. angles from which it could be approached safely by an enemy fighter. It has hatches in its nose, turtledeck, back, sides and bottom ill which guns are in- stalled. but the details of its arma- mens is a military secret.
 The planes would be assembled at Tulsa and Forth Worth, it was said, beca use Douglas and Consolidated facilities on the west coast are in full use, and the government is building huge plants there. More pver,s they would be safer from at- tack.

BLEW HIMSELF TO
 PIECES IN HOTEL

Buffalo, N. F., Jan. g. WP) - A man who had registered at the Ford Hotel as W. D. Wright. 70, of Rochester, sat quietly in the lobby all last night and early today blew himself to bits with @ charge of dynamite.
 Police, who could not confirm his identity at the Rochester address, said they hoped to do so through fingerprints from the victims hands.
 According to police, the victim destroyed himself by setting oil a bundle of dynamite he held in his lap or had strapped to his person as he sat in the lobby shortly be- fore 2 a. m. He had been evicted from his room yesterday for failure to pay-his bill

 The raid on Palermo caused no casualties and no important dam age, it was asserted.
 The high command said that an Italian torpedo boat had rammed and sunk a British suomarine and that an Italian submarine, operat- ing in the Atlantic, had sunk Brit ish auxiliray cruiser and 8 3,60O-ton Merchant ship.
 Italian airplanes bombed Salon ika with evident results, it was add. ed.
 "Nothing worthy of mention" took place in Libya, the communique said' through British air raids on Beng hazi and Tripoh, it was admitted caused slight" material damage. Three persons were killed at Tripon, the communique said.
 Activity by patrols and actions of local character were noted on the Albanian front.

 One of the IS buildings struck in the city, it was said, was church.
 Italian plane raids in Lbya were announced. It was said that num- erous British armored cars there were destroyed by bombs, and on the Albanian front, where according to the communique troop concen- trations and military works were bombed.

 Tobruk May Have Fallen
 London, Jan. 9-(UP)-Tobruk, Italian naval base on the Libyan coast 60 miles west of Bardia, may be in British hards within 8 few days, military experts reported today.
 Fresh reports from Egypt indicat- ed that the defenses of the area were weaker than those of Bardia, despite its ring of Perimeter forts, and that the garrison probably would not exceed 10000 at most.
 British forces were believed to be investing Tobruk in force already, after having moved advance units westward of it on the main Tobruk- BenghaN route.
 Tanks, armored cars, artillery and infantry were reported to be reach- ing the Tobruk area in ever greater numbers ready for an attack. It was believed here that British naval authorities already were pre- pairing, in anticipation of the fall of Tobruk, to make it a base for new naval operations against the Italians.
 The port is good. The Italians had used it as naval base and as

HOWARD HOPSON
 GIVEN SENTENCE
Continued from Page D

The maximum penalty which Judge Coxe could have assessed would have been 85 years in prison and $17,000 in fines. The govern ment asked no fine because all funds available to Hopson have al- ready been tied up by age trustees.
 Penalty Recommended
 Judge Coxe assessed the penalty recommended by Assistant U. s. Att torney Hugh A. Fulton who said Hopson's crime was lone of the largest frauds ever perpetrated."
 The sentence was five years on each of IT counts, the sentences to run concurrently.
 Hopkins exhibited no emotion ex- cept to moan "oh, ah, oh" as he faced the judge. He was remanded to the custody of the U. s. Marshal and was taken to the Federal prison at Lewisburg, Pa, by Marshals Will liam Tubman and John Moran.
 In asking sentence Fulton said Hopson was guilty of many other frauds in addition to those for which he was tried and asserted the utilities man had forced his com- panies to buy stocks, rigged the market and otherwise cheated stock holders.
 Hopson's attorney, Fred A. Iron side, pleaded for leniency on the ground that his client was the "vic- tim of the standards of a different era" from the present.
 Hopson arrived at federal court from the Neurological Institute, where he has been living since the trial opened November 6, apparently resigned to immediate commitment
 Sought To Evade Trial
 Hopson, who for months had sought to evade prosecution, first by pleading illness and then by claim ing instantly, sat throughout his eight weeks trial in an attitude of incomprehension. He doZed much Ot the time, snoring occasionally.
 On the day the verdict was an- nounced, after the jury had deliber- ated for 25 hours and five minutes Hopson bestirred himself long enough to scratch his head and moan. But he said nothing.
 One of the original 19 counts was dismissed during the trial and the jury ruled out the single conspiracy count. In so doing the jury acquit- ted Hopson's two cc-defendants Garrett A. Brownback and Charles M. Travis, attorneys.
 From the opening of the trial to its close the government presented HOO exhibits and millions of words of testimony to show that Hopson manipulated security issues of his various companies, charged all man. ner of personal items to age and otherwise enriched himself at the stockholders expense.
 Hopson spoke not a word in his own defense and, apparently, male TO effort to aid either his own or the governments case.
 Even as Hopson was sentenced receivers had his utilities empire with millions of dollars in federal tax liens against it. The Securities and Exchange Commission forced the age to file in bankruptcy just a year ago tomorrow by ruling 1t could no longer pay dividends on capital stock or interest on a $70,000, ,000 note held by the parent company. Four government agencies are still at work examining the systems rec ordS.
 And the sentencing did not ring down the curtain on Hopson's difi- culties with the federal government Still pending is the charge that he owes income taxes on the $l9,519, ,792 he stole from Age--taxes tota.ing at the last equalization $1,886. .405.
