DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY STAFF MESSAGE CENTER OUTGOING CLASSIFIED MESSAGE RESTRICTION PARAPHRASE NOT REQUIRED E.O. 12065, Sec. 3-402 DOD Directive 5100.30, June 18, 1979 JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF M M STEPHENS CAPT USN By NLT- NARS, Date 55234 TO: CINCFE TOKYO JAPAN NR: JCS 95328 29 OCT 50 From JCS for MacArthur as CINCUNC. This msg is for United States Officials Only. This radio is in two parts and refers to WAR 1919 93721, C 66303 and WAR 94584. Part I-Hereafter follows the general concept for Lumo occupation of North Korea. The purpose of the occupation will be to establish peace and security so that the Koreans themselves may solve the Korean problem with the aid and assistance of the United Nations. The occupation forces will not impose on the North Korean people a complete administration of government. However, it will be necessary to establish a temporary substitute for the Central North Korean Govt 000 and also to establish and maintain supervision and controls over North Korean de facto provincial and local govts. Three phases are envisaged in this occupation. The first phase will begin with the occupation and will continue until internal security has been established throughout the greater part of the area. The second phase will commence at the end of the first phase and will continue until national elections have been held, and the United Republic of Korea has assumed responsibility. The second phase will be followed by a third phase which will continue until all non-Korean UN forces are withdrawn in accordance with the recommendation contained in the United Nations General Assembly resolution of 7 Oct 1950. During the first phase, conditions of security will be paramount and civil affairs actions will be limited largely to provision of relief and minimum assistance, the establishment and maintenance of law and order and the initial establishment of local and provincial govts.
