to a total of 300 or more, attacked
the German Ruhr war industry Gen.
ter during the night for the third
time in five days of their new dew

nounced today.
Throughout the night, as they
struck again at the heart of Ger
many's war production, light bomb
ers and night fighters hurled bombs
and poured machine gun bullets into
targets over a wide area of German
occupied territory.
Planes based on the Mediterran-
can and the middle east extended
the offensive to a front of more
than 800 miles by bombing Naples,
Italy's third city, in waves and, by
admission of the Italian command,
starting fires.
DAY SHIFT BOMBING
And as the night force winged
homeward, with distant explosions
still shaking the southeast English
coast as the result of their bomb
ings in the Boulogne area, hundreds
of British day shift planes raced
into the rising sun to resume the
round the clock offensive which
entered its second week today.
Last night strong bomber forces
attacked an objective in the indus
trial district of the Ruhr," the air
ministry communique said of the
night raid.

MELBOURNE, June Cup -
A Japanese submarine has sunk a
second merchantmen off the south
east coast but is believed to have
paid with it's life, to bring the total
of enemy undersea craft destroyed
in six days to seven and probably
eight, it was announced today.
The japanese submersible, lurk-

coast in the new offensive against
the vital Pacific supply line from

The stricken ship broke in halves

A form of fifth-cOlumn activity
which has not been widely herald
ed in the press but which has been
a contributing factor to the lag
in our production offensive, is
causing much concern in official
circles here. That is the problem
of racial and religious discrimina-
ton in defense employment.
This type of sabotage is the
most difficult to halt, since it is
perpetuated not by enemy agents
but by some of our largest indus
trial firms-firms which are en-
gagged on vitality important war
orders. That the President HIM
self, is aware of the dangers of
this situation was made clear some
time ago when he issued an order
that no discrimination be practic-
ed by government bureaus and
asked employers engaged in de-
Tense work to hire all qualified
workers regardless of race, relig-
ion or national origin. To put
teeth into his request the Presi-
dent appointed the Committee on
Fair Employment Practices, whose
hearings in Chicago and New
York, so far, have highlighted the
evils of this situation.
Figures presented to the New
York sessions of the Committee
by the representative of several
Jewish groups, furnished concrete
evidence that the allegations as
to discriminatory practices were
definitely not unfOunded. They
indicated that employers, defense
training schools and fee-charging
employment agencies worked to-
gether to prevent the hiring of
