Algarian rebel terrorists attacked Villacoublay Airport, near Versailles, for the second straight night last night, and also attempted to sabotage an oil depot near Marseilles and an electric power centre in the Paris area, it was announced today.

All of the attacks failed when the terrorists retreated before the fire of French army guards, stationed at important centres since the wave of rehel terrorism erupted in France last month.

French Scientists Greeted In Japan Like Film Stars

Toulon, Sept. 8.

French Commander Georges Sylvain Houot, who holds the world record for deep-sea diving, said today that when a new French "bathyscape" takes to the water in 1960, "there will no longer exist an ocean depth, a single mysterious abyss, that we cannot reach and explore."

The new diving apparatus, built on the same prin- ciple as the record-making one the Commander used to reach a depth of 4,050 metres (13.162 feet) in 1954, will be stronger than the earlier model,

Its added strength should allow it to reach a depth of

11.000 metres (37,750 feet)-200 mctres 1650 feat) more than the greatest known depth. Commander Houot, who just arrived back in France after a serios of nine dives near Japan, told re- porters here that French and Japanese scientists had made studies of particular interest to Japan. "We proved once more that there exist under-water

currents even at great depths," he said.

He added: "This destroys the theory that with the great depths motionless, it would be feasible to dump atomic waste materials there."

He then described the other studies made near Japan. A few kilometres from Tokyo Bay at a depth of two to three thousand metres, he said, the scientists observed great masses of plankton, a form of marine life which, sald-Houat might one day keep humanity from starving to death. From the bathyscape's windows, the plankton re- sembled a thick snowstorm, through which the diving machine's powerful lights could not ponetrate, the commander said,

He added that attempts to bring samples of the delicate organism to the surface intact failed, as they turned into a sort of "mud" with no resem- blance to their original state,

In other dives, he said, the lights had picked out ex- tremely rare fish, which may never have been seen before. The scientists had photographed them and tried to bring back samples from depths of a thousand to 1,500 metres.

Commander Houot described with laughter the wel-
