MEMORANDUM SUMMARIZING INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE PRESIDENT
By Yong Shik Kim
The following is a summarization of the instructions given me by the President at Kyung Mu Dai on September 24, 1956. Acting Foreign Minister Cho Chung Whan was also present on the occasion.
I. a. With regard to the alleged Japanese property claims a memorandum containing United States interpretation on the issue which was given by Ambassador Dowling to Acting Foreign Minister Cho will be made the basis. Efforts will be made to press Japan to accept the US interpretation in accordance with the said memorandum and the Japanese Government should be pressed to publicize its acceptance.
b. In our effort to press the Japanese Government to accept the said US interpretation, cooperation of Ambassador Allison of the US Embassy in Tokyo and also of General Lemnitzer, Commander-in-Chief of the United Nations Command, will be sought. For this purpose meetings with them will be requested after my return to the pose in Tokyo.
c. In case Japan is prepared to accept the said interpretation on the property claims issue and declares itself ready to publicize its acceptance, prior arrangements will be made so that a simultaneous announcement can be made in Seoul, Tokyo and Washington, inasmuch as the matter is a common concern of the three countries.
d. When Japan publicizes its acceptance of the US interpretation on the property claims issue and also the withdrawal of the Kubota statement, informal talks between the Japanese Government and myself will be started.
II. Regarding our own property claims Japan which include return of gold reserve, art treasures and other items, a total of $400-million in the term of US currency will be demanded.
III. With regard to the problem concerning the status and treatment of Korean residents in Japan, in addition to our previous stand a request will be made of the Japanese Government for payment of $500- per capita, whenever any of the Korean residents leave Japan for Korea permanently. The amount will be in compensation for contribution they were forced to make toward Japan during World War II and after. Korean residents who refuse to return to Korea will forfeit their right to protection by our Government.
IV. Regarding the detainee problem it is recognized that the issue is developing to the advantage of our side, recently. We continue to press Japan to obtain its pleage against further detention of pre-war Korean residents in the future.
V. After all the above problems are pushed through, we will present our reparations program to the Japanese Government for its consideration and payment.
VI. Regarding the Okinawa problem it is the contention of the Government that the entire Ryukyu Islands be given the status as an independent state, since Japan is now negotiating with the Soviet Union for tile return of small islands in the Kurile Archipelago.
