Confident that Japan will never be able to subdue the Chinese people Professor King Yang Kuo, director of the Chinese Institute of Physiology and Psychology declared yesterday afternoon that it was only a matter of time until his people, with the help of foreign nations, can drive the Japanese from China, itself.
"Japan can no longer boast of largesoale victories," the professor remarked. "She has lost a tremendous number of men and materials in China and is anxious to make peace. China, however, will make peace only in terms of her own victory and will resist Japan's efforts to the last."
Need Foreign Support
With American aid China hopes to eventually win out; modern weapons, especially new airplanes, will turn the tide of battle. Japanese military spokesmen, Kuo continued, openly admit that they will be unable to subdue China, but hope to keep what they have already obtained.
United States aid to China, according to Kuo, also benefits the Americas in that it helps to remove the Japanese threat from its western bases and shores. Effective Chinese aid with modern equipment would force Japan to concentrate its efforts in China, weakening the forces it would be able to muster against the United States.
China has not forgotten the importance of education in its present struggle, Kuo pointed out, but has made every effort to give its students as much learning as possible. When the war began in July 1937, there were 31,800 students in colleges; today this number has grown to over 51,000, he concluded.
