4 December 1945 From: Ambassador Edwin Pauley, Tokyo, Japan. To : Justin Wolf, The White House Map Room, Washington, D. C. Nr : 6799 (0414532) Refer memorandum entitled Interallied Reparations Commission, The Problem, etc. Plan presented in conclusions not entirely satisfactory. Should not FEAC be the agency through which major policies will be agreed? Expect my recommendations when ratified in Washington and Tokyo by US Government will control U.S. representative. Interallied Reparations Commission would thus be the intergovernmental administrative agency, not (rpt not) the policy agency. It would (1) develop procedures in accord with policies set, (2) make allocations of specific plants, machines and commodities after these have been declared available by SCAP under agreed general policies, (3) adjudicate restitution claims under policies set, and (4) individual members would accept and certify for shipment to his country reparations and restitutions assigned. Nature of membership and size of delegation would be controlled by these considerations. ARE NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS a SERVICE SUPERMENT - 1 -
