"PURE FAKING."
NAZI RACE THEORIES.
U.S. Minister's Outspoken Criticism. SCIENTISTS CONDEMNED. United Press Association. —Copyright. (Received 11 a.m.) NEW YORK, February 13. Ridiculing Nazi racial theories as "pure scientific faking," the Secretary for Agriculture, Mr. Henry A. Wallace, in a Lincoln birthday speech, aimed the most outspoken criticism at Germany since Mr. H. L. Ickes' speech at Cleveland last December.
Mr. Wallace deplored ■ the treatment that great scientists received in totalitarian States, where they were exiled or put in concentration camps, while "others who call themselves scientists are willing to play the dictators' game by twisting science into a mumbo-jumbo of dangerous nonsense in order to teach that the German race is a nation superior to all others. "Thus, by implication, they say Germany has the right to dominate all others."
