TOP SRCRET

reflect that resentment of which I expressed my deep con-
cern during yesterday's conference and I believe that every
effort should be made by our government to reconcile the
position of the United Nations' interim committee on Korea
with the previous resolutions and commitments of the United
Nations with respect to the establishment of the existing
government of the Republic of Korea. As you pointed out in
yesterday's conference, we must not unnecessarily alienate
that government and the people it represents who during the
past 3 months have displayed so determined and gallant a
stand against aggression and in support of the US-UN
principles, nor are we justified in ignoring decisions of
the United Nations of the past 3 years, particularly as to
the bona fides of the elections held on May 10, 1948 and
May 30, 1950. To do so would be to create full legal and
moral grounds for just such resentment. Ambassador Muccio
fully concurs.
