Former Tokyo Editor Says Japan
No Weakling, Supplies Stored Up
(Edltor'a note: Japan Is not
likely to loso her war with the
AUCD power because of a
mortage of oil or other raw
materials, the former managing
editor of the Japan Advortlser,
who for 10 years wan a leading
American newxpuprrman In Tok
yo, aaacrta in the following dispatch.)
By DON BROWN
United Press Staff
Correspondent
Jopan'i militarists expect to
win their war against the Unit
ed Statca, Britain and their allies
because of superior Japanese
armed might.
They envisage armed itrength
In the lomo way tho German! do
total war, with every resource
of tho Japaneae amplro and iti
conquered territories mobilized
for tho fray.
Thut mobilization wai com
pleted long before tho Japanese
struck at I'earl Harbor and
aaainst the Philippines and
Singapore.
It wai as complete In terms
of raw materials needed for war
as It wai In terms of inunpowor,
airplanes and worships.
National Secrecy
This correspondent, during the
decade 1031-41, saw the mobili
zation take place but neither he
nor anybody else was oblc to get
ony precise data In termi of bar
rels of oil, tons of iron, army
divisions or destroyer flotillas.
During all this decade, start
ing with the conquest of Man
churia and leading through the
"practice war" In Chlnu, the mo
bilization steadily wos underway
camouflaged by a smoke-screen
of carefully planted false reports
and probably the most successful
effort at national secrecy ever
achieved by a great power.
In line with their maxim
thdt the enemy must be lulled
Into a false feeling of superior
ity the Tokyo militarist! bottled
up every reliable lource of In
formation and caused to be dis
seminated throughout the world
stories of Nippon's "weakness"
In raw materials.
Correspondents In Tokyo were
permitted, even subtly encour
' aged, to send abroad anything
! they might wish about Japan's
j "Weakness" in raw materials.
I They were not permitted to get
I a single icrap of reliable lnfor
I matlon.
Paopla In Dark
' Not even the Japanese people
wero permitted to know.
But, of course, many of the
war preparations Svere obvious.
They were too big to be com
pletely concealed. Correspon
dents were permitted to travel,
except in certain specified zones,
and could see in a measure the
development that was taking
placo In Manchukuo which has
been made into one of tho em
pire's great military bases and
production centers.
In terms of the production of
essential war materials great
strides were made and It seemi
certain that, by October, 1941,
the imperial general staff was
confident that Japan was ready
to start her war.
It should be remembered that
the Tokyo militarists started this
war coldly and deliberately.
They were not forced Into an
undcslrcd move.
And to those who know the
Japanese military mind that fact
can only mean that the general
staff was confident It could win.
But it Is equally true that the
Japanese military mind Is ig
norant of the world outside Asia.

never have traveled In tho Unit
ed States. That they have grave
ly misjudged our enormous war
capacity seemi certain.
Matt Them In th. Plaid ""
But that fact does not mean
that they will be eaally defeated
or "starved" Into lubmlsslon. In
tho end, all my own long obscr.
vatlon leads me to believe, they
must be beaten In the field
crushed by superior military
force.
Any examination of Nippon's
capacity in raw materials, as has
been pointed out, la pure guess
work. Tho best guesses, so far
as this correspondent could
learn, are about as follows:
Oil and petroleum products:
Sufficient reserves to fight on
all -fronts from three to five
year. Without these reserves
the war would not have been
started.
Iron and steel: Enough for In
definite operations. Consider
able new supplies have been
opened up in Manchukuo and
China: additional supplies win
be obtained from other conquer
ed areas.
Non-ferrous mctala: There la
likely to be an eventual shortage
of aluminum, magnesium and
other products but this well be
overcome In part by use of sub
stitutes.
Food: Supplies for the peculiar
Japanese diet probably ore fair
ly adequate in all categories.
Conquered territories will be
colled on In case of need and
conquered populations, not the
Japanese, will be the ones to go
hungry.
Rubber: Supplies probably
available to run the armed forces
Indefinitely. Civilians may have
to do without.
Cotton: A definite shortage
exists and will get worse until
production In Manchuria, North
Central China, and other occu
pied areas can be increased. Sub
stitute materials long have been
in use.
Cool: Ample supplies of all
kinds. Manchukuo and North
China are supplying largo quan
tities. To conserve oil, many
merchant vessels have been con
verted to burn coal.
Methodically, one may be t
sure, the Japanese militarists
went right down the line of their
supplies and checked each item j
before they struck. Their com
putations cannot have been per-1
feet, of course, but It would be I
dangerous to assume that
many serious errors were made j
In reasoning out the problem as j
the Japanese general staff saw it.
What .They Didn't For.se.
What the Japanese generals
did not foresee, one may be cer- i
tain, Is that President Roosevelt
would announce a program of '
185,000 warplancs, 120,000 tanks
and 18,000,000 tons of shipping ,
In the next two years.
Those are figures simply be-
yond the capacity of the Japa- ;
neso mind. i
The very size of this program i
shows that Washington does not
share the view that Japan is
weak.
Those who consider the Japa
nese under-nourished point out
that meat, dairy products, sugar,
bread and other occidental foods
havo for several years been
available in only limited Quanti
ties. They cite the rationing of '
even tho two fundamental com
ponents of the average Japanese i
diet, rice and fish.
At least in part, this rationing
was enforced not because of seri
ous shortages but because the
authorities wished to build up
stocks and at the same time train
the populace to consume less.
Several recent seasons of un
favorable weather havo reduced
rice production, but it would be
unwise' to count on the weather
to lose the war for Japan.
Oil Problem
Only If American, British and
Dutch submarines patrol the sea
lanes linking Japan proper with
her important Korean and For
mosan granaries and sink more
vessels than the Germans, oper
ating from much closer bases,
have been able to send to the
bottom of the Atlantic can Japan
be starved Into submission.
Much mors serious problems
would seem to be Japan's oil
and iron supplies. Curtailment
of oil: consumption began three
years ago, and today hardly a
drop is lost on purposes not re
lated to tho war. Private auto
mobiles no . longer are driven,
and virtually all buses and busi
ness trucks, as well as at least
one of Emperor Hirohlto's big.
maroon American - made cars,
operate on charcoal. j
Premier Gen. Hidekl Tojo told
ftshermon last fall to get up earl-1
in i ii i i ii in i ii iiiaaaesggpa '
;t i
k-r and use sails or row out to
their fishing grounds Instead of
depending on oil or gasoline mo
tors. Nor Is Japan dependent on the
stocks she has built up over the
yean of Importing great quanti
ties of oil and gasoline from the
United Statei and the Nether
landi East Indies. Domestic
wells yield, according to some
estimate!, 4,500,000 barrels year
ly. As long as Russia remains
neutral the output of the Japanese-leased
wells In north Sakha
lin will continue to flow to Ja
pan. Estimates of this output
have varied from 2,000,000 to 5,
000,000 barrels yearly.
Synthetic gasoline probably Is
Japan s main domestic iupj;ly,
however. Plants have been
rushed to completion during the
past four years near coal sources
in Manchukuo, Hokkaido and on
the main AJapanese island.
Two years ago, a Japanese na
val officer boasted that the navy
would never have to worry
about Its oil supply because of
the domestic natural and syn
thetic production already as
sured at that time. .
Meeting Held for

"With th. Increased demands
on our sewing machines for Red
Cross sewing and remodeling of

ichool on Friday, January 23,
from 10 to 3 p. m.
Homemaken are requested to
bring their own sewing ma
chines to learn to clean it and
oil it, and make tension adjust
ments, and to learn to take care
of any other minor mechanical
difficulties.
Lucy Lane, extension special
ist in clothing at Oregon State
college, will conduct the meet
ing and H. H. Kenago, th. local
Singer sewing machine repre
sentative, will aajiit.
Th. free cllnlei are open to
anyone who wiihei to bring her
sewing machine, according to
Mn. Glllen.
