II it had not been for the cool
courage of the 18-year-old boy they
knew as "Hoppy," some of them
would not be alive today to tell
the story.
Two nights after he was mortal

friends in the service, men of his

he was picked off by a japanese

1T was during the second night
of the battle for the Marshall is
lands. Private First Class Hopkins
was working as an ammunition
carrier and flank security man
when his outfit was called in to
relieve a badly battered company.
Several Japs already had been kill
ed near the beach in an encounter
with the first pillbox. About so of
the Japs remaining fled toward a
trench about $50 yards to the rear.
Twelve Marines, including Private
First Class Hopkins, were out in
front of their main body chasing
the Japs toward the trench.

who had been passed up as dead

AIDE poised in his hand Hopkins,
the only man who saw him in time,
quickly shot him through the head.
During the early part OF the
night Hopkins went back three
times through heavy enemy fire
to bring Up ammunition, when the
supply ran low, then took his place
again as flank security man on the
front lines.
HE was the farthest man for
ward toward the Jap lines, trying
to dig a fixhole with his hands,
when he fell MORALLY wounded by

TAX MEASURE IS

measure will be passed this year.
The House Ways and Means Com
mittee currently is studying tax
simplification, but expects to gain
little; if any revenue, from any
changes that might be made in
this direction.
Reports were that the President
would object, in veto message, to
certain provisions of the act such
as the so-called timber amend
ment, a gas well depletion clause,
corporation reorganization pro-
vision and other changes of this
nature.
Labor leaders have opposed a
provision which would require I'M
ions to file annual financial re-
ports with the treasury.
Administration leaders in the
Senate fought a provision which
would prevent the charging off for
tax purposes of large, losses sus.
tanned in 'hobby' enterprises. AS
finally approved, this amendment
would limit to $4,000, plus.sinter-
est and taxes paid on the enter
prise, the amount deductible; and
then only if a loss had been sus-
tanned for five consecutive years.
The so-called timber amendment
would permit individuals who cut
their own timber to pay taxes on
the basis of the comparatively low
er capital gains levies, instead OF
including profits in normal income.
| If veto is forthcoming, it was
considered unlikely that attempts
would be made in the House to
override.

Ran ON ITALIAN
| WAR NEWS FLAYED

WASHINGTON, Feb. IT, Up -
The ban on direct filing Of press
disnatches from the Anzio beach
head in Italy brought protest to-
dav from War Information Director
Elmer Davis who declared the pub
lie "is entitled to the fullest and
most rapid supply of news con-
s,stent with military security"
The immediate inclination OF
military authorities here, however,
apparently was to back UP firmly
the decision of the commanders on
the spot. Asked what he thought OF
the requirement that news dis
patches be sent by courier to Ma
ples for censorship, rather than
being transmitted from the beach
head by available radio, Secrets y
of War Stimson told a press c~ll-
ference:
my only comment on that is in
accord with my usual policy: Gen.
eral (Sir Henry Maitland) Wilson,
commanding in the Mediterranean
theater, is in the best possible posi-
ton to judge whether factors such
as you refer to affect the opera
tons in this theater either favor
ably or adversely. The theater
commander is under a great re-
sponsibility, particularly at this
time"
Stirnson's press conference was
held before Davis had lodged his
views with the War Department.
Speaking with reporters, the wal
information director expressed
confidence his agency's protesta
lions would have some influence

with President Roosevelt at the

The courier system of getting

Before Stimson was asked for di
