destroy organized labor"
 Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox asserted yesterday that the government would treat as enemies of the country" any persons who use union activities as "a cloak to ct. tack American liberty and free- dom,"
 Attorney General Robert IT. Jack. son has accused leaders of the North American strike of being fol- lowers of "the communist party line" and has described the plants shutdown as on "insurrection.
 The administration has discussed with responsible labor leaders it's plan to have SubvcrSive workers discharged, 1t was learned. These conferences have been concerned with forming c committee to con- sider any dismissal cases about which legitimate labor might have c question.
 The administration's strong pol. icy has brought results. The North American plant now is operating with HOO per cent efficiency." Strikes ct the Aluminium Company of America, Cleveland, O.. and tho Bohn Aluminium and Brass Cor- poration, Detroit, which threatened the flow of vital aircraft materials, have been settled.
 Tho remaining major strike Is that of shipyards workers in tho San Francisco area end the media ton board is scheduled to start hearings otl 1t today.
 Before the mediation boards pan- el convenes with company and union representatives, Harvey w. Brown, president of the Interna- tional Association of Mach!nists (AFL), meets with the unions exs ecutive board to convey to 1t Presl- dent Roosevelt'S request that the strike of the TAM local In San Francisco be ended.
 The mediation board Is expected to follow It's new method Of insist ing that the strikers agree to re- turn to work before 1t considers their case. That formula was fol- lowed in the aluminium strikes. But the Shipyards strikers have refused to return to work until their de- nands for SI.i6 an hour and dou" ble time for overtime are met. Un. der an agreement ratified by the San Francisco Metal Trades Coun- ell the machinists would receive $i.i2 an hour and time and one- half for overtime, but the IAM voted against accepting that.
 First indication that the govern inent planned to take drastic action against strike leaders came yester- day when eight officers of the United Automobile Workers Union (CIO) were denied the right to re. turn to work at the North Atneris can plant which still is under cons troi of the army. The men irnn1es diately filed charges with the labor board accusing the company of vios lating the Wagner Labor Relations Act.
 Lieut.. Col. Charles Branshaw, in charge of the army occupation, said the men were suspended" because their action was "pretudiciai to the best interests of the American peo- ple."

sengerS and crew were removed tt life boats before the ship was sunk or whether she was fired on with out warning.
 It also was to be determined what the visibility was at the hour oi the attack. That would have some influence in determining how read- fly the German commander could identify the vessel.
 Rivaling the fate of the Robin Moor in conversation here was recently.published article by news paper columnists Joseph Alsop and Robert Kintner, who related reports of encounter between Q German submarine and a United States war; ship on Atlantic patrol duty. The columnists had said the United States ship discharged depth charges at the submarine.
 Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox was asked about this ct his press conference yesterday. He re- piled "No comment, and said that publication of unconfirmed reports is fuimical to the country's defense efforts.
 Some reporters told Knox they had questioned Navy Department of- ficialS about the same report Sev- eral weeks ago and had received @ flat denial of 1t. Had anything oc- cured, they asked, to cause this flat denial to be changed to & mere "No comment?"
 I'm not going to discuss it," Knox said. 'The answer today Is no cor1- meylt."
 He added that he wouldn't talk about the reported submarine incl. dent If I knew it to be true"
 Pernambueo, Brazil, June l2- (UP)-United States and Brazilian officials today continued their ques- tioning of survivors from the Ameri- can steamer Robin Moor, sunk In the South Atlantic, as the Brazilian steamer Osorio which rescued them resumed its voyage to Rio de Janeiro.
 The Osorio sailed for Rio ct 6:30 Q. m. but the Ii Robin Moor sur- vlvors-i0 crew members and 6 pas- senger remained here. United States officials already have made g preliminary examination of the survivors and reports were under- stood to have been forwarded to Washington and to the Brazilian government.
 How long the questioning of the survivors would continue here was not determined immediately.
 Before the Osorio sailed the sur- vivors left the ship with officials, who will continue their examination at the United States consulate. A consular representative from Rio dc Janeiro arrived to participate in the questioning and 1t was indicated that later some information on the in. vestigation might be given to the press.
 The osorio arrived at the entrance to the port at Ii o'clock last ngiht. The port captain, the port pilot and Lieut.. William Hodgson, U. s. navy retired, acting as unofilcial United States observer, went out by launch to board 1t.
 Maritime police guarded the dock closely when the ship drew in. They permitted no one but authorized Brazilian officials and others ofiicial- ly concerned to go aboard, and no one was permitted to come ashore from the Osorio.
 Walter J. Linthicum, United States consul here, went aboard as the ofii- cial representative Of the United States.
 Linthicum took charge of the sur- vivors, to question them on the fate of the Robin Moor, especially as re-

 Linthicum, Lieut.. Hodgson and Brazilian officials concluded their first inquiry ct 3:30 c. m. today (2:30 Q. m. EDT.)
 Linthicum said photographers of the survivors and the Osorio crew would be permitted to take pictures some time after midday today but that 1t would be necessary to con- tinue e ban on communication with those on the Brazilian ship.

 Reports Of Invasion
 There were unconfirmed reports
 that the nominal leaders of some
 occupied and neutral countries had
 been told that Germany was going to invade Russia. As usual there
 were rumors that Q date had been
 set-June l5, June 30, or certain
 " late this spring or early this
 summer" These reports were not credited.
 There were reports that Hitler was putting extraordinary pressure on Russia for new concessions, eco- homie, political or military; that he .antendedt to march Into the Ukraine
 t0 seize the ripening wheat fields; that he intended to march through \ the Caucasus, with or without Rus eiai1 consent, to gain control of the oil fields there and to strike at the . British rear in the Middle East. { Trap For Britain There were even suggestions that by confronting Russia with for- midable army, and spreading belief ' that he intended to attack, Hitler hoped to catch Britain mapping and try to invade 1t,

mass raids, and the fact that British planes were raiding in force. The moon reaches its full phase tonight.
 A few bombs were dropped during the night on widely scattered points in England. Substantial damage was done ct some points. But the chief German activity of the night was the appearance of Q single plane over the eastern counties, where 1t dropped thousands of leaflets advis- Ing BritonS to give up because they would be doomed to starvation "this year or early next year."
 The leaflets, single sheets printed on both sides in English, quoted various statements by President Roosevelt on British aid and Ger man claims of the sinking of in- numerable British ships in the bat- tie of the Atlantic.
 Britain's avenues of supply are being finally" closed, the leaflets said.
 It was the first German leafiet raid in many months.
 The nights attacks by the Brit- iSh air force came after constant daylight action yesterday.
 The Calais attack was So heavy that buildings 22 miles away, ia the British Dover area, were shaken by bombs seen exploding along the French waterfront. The German ground defenses sent up c heavy aircraft barrage, but the at- tack continued.
 A steady procession of British bombers droned across the Straits of Dover shortly before ] Q. m. aa the moon rose from behind clouds shrouding the French coast. The first planes dropped flares which lighted up targets for following planes carrying heavy explosives Later, the attack increased in vio- { lence and extended along the coast to the Calais, Boulogne and Cape 0ris Neg regions.
 Before dark last night British bombers had attacked the Dutch coast and had sunk e tanker in the Dover Straits with seven direct hits One German Seaplane was shot down adn one British plane was lost.
 German bomberS made "a fairly heavy raid" on c north England town during the night, but else- where there was little action. Sev. eral bombs were dropped In the West Midlands, but caused little damage.
 A night alarm sounded in Loa- don for the first time in 6 week and the third time in 25 nights. It ap- peared that only @ few raiders were flying over the capital en route to the Midlands, although the anti- aircraft fire was heavier and lasted longer than during the last two alarms.
 Berlin, June l2.--(UP)--Brltisl, planes dropped explosive and in- cendiary bombs on several points in north and west Germany last night, causing civilian deaths and injuries, the German high com mand said today.
 A communique said that "heavy destruction of residences resulted at Cologne, Duisburg and Bochum Industrial and railroad installations were slightly damaged, the high command said.
