illegally purchasing out of state
LIQUOR. Commissioner Felix Flynn

Since that time il has been one
of the gathering places for Detroit
cafe society and the scene of
many elaborate banquets.

Shortly after the japanese gen.
eral on Okinawa rejected a sur
render-or-die ultimatum by 1t.
Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner, the
Tokyo radio declared that u. S.
amphibious forces staged a sur
prise landing in the southern
sector Of Okinawa and began an
all-out offensive.
The Americans already preached
the towering Yaeju-Dake Escarp-
ment defenses, two regiments
securing footholds on its heights,
despite furious Japanese resist
ance.
EXPAND HOLDS
According to the Jap propa-
gandists, who claimed that some
1000 Americans were killed or
wounded on Okinawa since the
island was invaded April I, the
Japanese garrison was Inter-
the Yanks who stormed
ashore.
Artillery fire and infiltration
tactics assertedly were "exacting
heavy bleeding" from these troops,
the Japs said, but there was no
official confirmation of the enemy
boasts.
On the other hand, the Ameri-
cans eliminated nearly 1000
enemy cave positions inside Of 48
hours in just a portion of the
escarpment front. Front dis
patches told of these gains, saying
that the 96th Divisions 181st
Regiment and Seventh Divisions
18th Regiment already were ex-
panding their holds in the vital
heights.

At MUCC

Fifteen check writer's and
clerks of the Michigan Unemploy-
ment Compensation Commission
branch office at Grand River and
Oakman staged a spontaneous sit
down strike this morning when
they failed to receive pay checks
due yesterday.
The remainder returned TO
work after a delegation of seven
sent to the state office in High
land Park extracted a promise
from Edward II. Began, chief of
the business management section,
that the checks would be deliv-
cred by noon.
Workers claimed they had been
working as many as u hours a
week in violation of the state
labor law. They said they did not
receive the overtime in lump
sums. but that it was scattered
over future checks. They reported
that Mrs. Kay Ruby, chief ex-
aminer, informed them last night
they would not get their checks
unless they worked overtime.
Began said reason the checks
had been held up was that they
had TO be specially processed be-
cause the group had averaged two
days off during the last pay
period.
