mand planes had left off last
night In their Furnishing raids along
a 400-mile stretch of the occupied

The afternoon target of the

HINT NEW RAIDS
The warning stirred speculation
that the British were preparing
to send a new commando force
against some vital military OBJ
jective on the French coast or
increase their devastation raids
throughout the invasion area.
Raj bombers were grounded by
bad weather last night, but the
fighter and coastal command planes
carried on.

Sd Major Siege
Being Defeated
BY Sevastopol
BY HENRY SHAPIRO
United Press stan Correspondent

MOSCOW, June S.-Sevastopol,
Russia's great Black Sea naval
base, now in its two hundred and
nineteenth day of siege, battled
the third major assault by Axis
forces today.
For the last three days, fighting
against superior odds, the garrison,
supported by the Soviet Black Sea
feet and the Red air force. has
been turning back large-scale at
tacks and infiicting heavy losses,
official dispatches said.
At the other end of the 1900
mile battle line, on the Karelian
front, fierce air battles were fought
when German planes attempted to
raid detectives behind the Soviet
lines, the official news agency
Tass reported.
CLAIM as NAZI PLANES
In one battle, it said, four Rus
sian pilots engaged 10 enemy
planes, shooting down one and
dispensing the others. Later, Tass
said, Russian bombers raided Ger
man bases, destroyed 43 planes or
the ground and damaged 20.
The Germans tried to storm
from land and sea the unyieldine
defenses Of Sevastopol, the army
newspaper Red Star said, and
bombers came over in mass.
The assault was comparable. I
said, to the first offensive against
the naval base last November
when six divisions of infantry ant
one of cavalry, seven crack S.
regiments, several Rumaniar
brigades and hundreds of tank
land planes were thrown back.

Last week the PRESS carried story of an expeetant
mother who was brutaly beaten by AN irate grocery
manager because she questioned the weight of the CON-
modify she had paid for. This expectan mother was
customer this store like many other mothers who seek
stores with managers who carry chips their should
ers' for Negroes who demand fair treatments Many
of these stores have appreciation whatever for Negro
patronage and merely tolerate because the Negroes
will insist going there, and the Negro goes there be-
cause the Merchants who do appreciate his trade
uctant to make bid for it thru the columns of the Ne
gro Press.
The Negro is not to be censored for not knowing
where to rghtfuy place his patronage. The Negro
called leaders have made any concrete effort
the Negroes purchasing power and direct it into channels
where he receive benefit from it. but instead they
have the rounds individually and sold the Negro
to the highest bidder for few patry dollars and leave
suits that may arise
The merchants who mean we'll are reluctant to adj
vertise in Negro papers, for they have been "gypped
from promises of walking delegates begging campaigns

The answer is this: House wives will have to organize
themselves that they viii be able to call on merchants
