The French, and possibly the Bel

A few minutes after the day raiders

to the British coast.
The night raids far up the Rhine

thunderstorms, the air communique
said.
Other forces of British bombers
struck at docks at Dunkerque. Rot

said, adding that planes from all
these operations returned safely.
During the night German raiders

Prosecutor Accuses
Johnson Of Making
Perjjured Defense
Says 6. O. P. Leader
FoiIed to Reveal
Port of, 1887 Income
By the Associated Press.


CAMDEN. N. j., July 23-Special
Assistant United States Attorney
Joseph w. Burns charged in Fed
eral Court today that Enoch l..
(Nucky) johnson, Atlantic City Re-
publican leader, had committed per-
jury in testimony at his trial on in
come tax evasion charges.
The Government attorney also
asserted that part of the defense
testimony was pure concoction."
Mr.. Burns accusations were made
to Judge Albert B. Maris after the
jurist had granted the attorneys re-
quest that the jury and Mr.. johnson
be taken from the courtroom tenn
porarily.
The prosecutor told the court the
perjury was committed through Mr..
Johnson's failure to discuss an
other $4,000 directly concerned in
his 1887 income tax"
Mr.. Burns contended the Johnson
defense was false defense" in
that it was first said that his COL
lectlons from the resort city's num-
bers syndicate ran only to March
1896. Then, said Mr.. Burns. it was
admitted the collections ran to 1887
and later, into 1888.
This turn in the trial came as the
prosecution resumed cross-eXamina-
ton of Mr.. johnson in an effort to
bring out more details of how
sl58.000 was collected from the
numbers syndicate.
The defendant testified yesterday
he accepted the money to maintain
his political organiza tion-that he
spent the money as it came in and
that he never tried to cheat the
Government out of any income
taxes. Part of the money he said
was given to the Atlantic City poor
as gifts.
