Who Can't
LickJapan?
Dizzy Dean Of Chemuroy
Is Told His Test Tubes
Don't Measure Courage

Clarence Francis. president Of
General Foods Corporation and
chief industrial consultant Of the
Defense Plant Corporation. yes
terday took tint&cRt in BIS speech
before the Michigan Bankers As
ISOLATION convention TO slap back
AT the reported statement OF Or.
William Jay Hale. noted chemist.
TO the effect that United States
could not lick the Japs.'
Hale, who spoke 10 the bankers
Thursday. is known as tho "Peck's
BAD Boy" and the DIZZY Dean"
of chemurgy.
Francis said fatty that courage
cannot be measured in a test tube
and that while Doctor Hale has a
right Of freedom Of speech, he
should not underestimate the cour-
age and heroism OF the heroes OF
Wake Island, Bataan, Corrcgidor
end the Coral Sea.
NOT THEIR OPINION
yesterday, an eminent sclen-
tIst and chemist was quoted as
saying we could not win" Fran
els said. This IL not the opinion
Of our military leaders, the lead
ers of the United Nations or
even the leaders OF Germany,
Italy and Japan.
"And of vastly greater impor-
lance, IL isn't the opinion OF
5000, 900 American soldiers, of
10000, 900 armament workers or
OF 10000, 900 American people"
Reached at Midland, his head
n quarters as consulting chemist for
v the Dow Chemical Company, Doc
tor Hale pointed out that the
speech was extemporaneous, so
that he had no record Of his exact
words.
However, he explained that in
his opinion the Japs could, by de-
veloping the resources Of con-
quered territories. make them
selves too powerful TO be whipped
by the United States.
WIN IL COMBINED NOW
lie emphasized that if the en-
tire white race combined now, IT
could do the job, but added:
Every time Russian kills n
German. German Russian,
an Englishman n German, etc,
the laps laugh up their sleeves
because they know that's one
less white man TO he conquered
later"
lie said that the war would end
In a stalemate as II is now being
fought and that a white versus
yellow war would follow.
Hale reiterated his contention
that industry must use the prod
ucts Of the farm in both war and
reacetlme, and added that the
area now held by the Japs have
prolific potentialitieS.
VAST RAW MATERIALS
"Java. alone, has more raw
materials than the whole Of
Canada" he concluded.
The Michigan bankers also heard
Or. Melchior Palyi, former head OF
- the German ReichSbank, blast
Hale's stand.

REGROUP FORCES

A British military commentator
said that it seemed likely the Axis
forces would regroup but that 1t
was not yet clear whether they
would attack the main British line
along the Egyptian border or try
to take Tobruk first.
Other quarters doubted that
the Germans would again leave
Tobruk on their flank. where ito
garrison could make sortie timed
with a possible new British offen-
sive.
But the position of Tobruk was
now difficult because the British
navy did not possess the same
measure of command of the Medi-
terranean as it did a year ago.
MORE ARTILLERY
The Germans also had received
considerable reinforcements in are
tillery, including u.s. millimeter
and 210-millimeter (415 and 81.
inch) howitzers.
1t was assured here that the
Germans still had many heavy
tanks despite their recent big
losses.
If an attack on Tobruk sue
ceeded, it was said, the Germans
could then attack the main British
line frontally.
