SECURITY -2- ess Page 2 to Moscow #825 April 5 1947 comments on draft follow. Antepenultimate paragraph contains a Tactual error. In addition wie feel it mâght be desirable to include in that paragraph reference to reasons for failure to reach agrea- ment. Following redraft of that paragraph is suggested. QUOTE The United States Commander in Korea has several times suggested to the Soviet Commander that the Commission reconvene and get on with its work. However, the Soviet Com ander has insisted on a formula which would result in eliminating the majority of representative Korean leaders from consultation as representatives of Korean democratic parties and social organizations, and has reiterated this position in a letter to the American Commander as recently as Feb 28, 1947. It has therefore been impossible to agree upon a basis for reconvening the Commission. Now in april 1947, almost sixteen months since the agrieement pertaining to Korea was reached in Moscow, there has still been no real progress made toverds the impleuentstion of that agreement. UNQUOTE We see little use in reconvening the Commission without some basis to enable it to progress and therefore suggest second sentence of penultimate paragraph be redrafted along following lines: QUOTE DECLASSIFIED RECBROR E. O. 11652, Sec. 3(E) and 5(D) or (E) Depr. of State letter, Aug. 9, 1973 NLT-HC NARS Date 3.2.76
