The Canadian-born publisher said he did not feel alarmed at the diminishing number of news- papers in the world. "Newspapers are supported largely by advertisements and advertisements won't spread any thinner," he said. "The strong get stronger and the weak get weaker." Asked how big he hoped his empire would become, Lord Thomson said: "There is no limit." He said he was in Australia to inspect his local investments, including publishing and print- ing interests. Prison jimmediately sought to block his imprisonment by asking 'Justice Potter Stewart to delay' sending the court's decision back to the] U.S. district court in Chatta- nooga, Tenn., where Hoffa orig- inally was convicted. | But Stewart, who supervises | that district of the federal court} system, turned down Hoffa's ré-| quests after conferring with the} other justices.

ONE HOPE LEFT Court sources said it ap- peared Hoffa's only remaining hope to avoid prison would be an appeal to the district court to let him remain free on bail pending its action on motions he's already placed before it. Hoffa, 54, was convicted of tampering with a jury at a 1962 conspiracy trial in Nashville, Tenn., that ended with a dead- locked jury. For Hoffa, Monday's Supreme Court decisions marked a stun- ning defeat in a long history of jcourt battles--many of which he won. | Hoffa was indicted in 1957 on 2 charge of bribing a lawyer but was acquitted by a U.S. dis- \trict court in Washington.
