Trouble In Korea
The Interim Committee of the General Assembly of the United Nations sent a commission to Korea in an attempt to carry out its order to hold free elections and establish a stable government. The Soviets have refused to allow the commission to enter its occupation zone and to participate in any United Nations settlement of the problem.
Soviet Refusals
Sabotage and disorders have heightened the political disturbances in Korea the past week. A closer study of the scene will reveal the reasons for these troubles.
An agreement was reached at Yalta to divide "temporary" occupation duties in Korea between the United States and Russia. The U. S. was to occupy South Korea which contains two-thirds of Korea's 30 million people. Russia's zone was designated as North Korea. The General Assembly of the United Nations voted overwhelmingly to hold election in both occupation zones and to establish a stable government before withdrawing occupation troops.
Evidently the instigators of these outbreaks of violence hope to force the United Nations commission to give up and withdraw.
The interim committee will soon meet to decide whether to bow to Russia's veto and withdraw from South Korea or to go ahead alone with the elections and formation of a government.
Danger of Civil War
Many observers say that to abandon Korea now would lead to inevitable civil war. If the U. S. stays, the people of South Korea will at least have a chance to develop their country along democratic lines.
But if the area is vacated and subsequently merged with the north, all hope will be lost. North Korea already has a going government with an army of between 100,-000 and 200,000 men. Its government is backed by Communists who would quickly subject all of South Korea to the same rule that North Korea has now, if the occupation troops were withdrawn and the U. N. given up.
Let us hope that the outbreaks convince both the commission and the interim committee that the best hope for a peaceful settlement of the Korean situation still lies in the United Nations—Charles Moffett.
The dollar bill—that which takes up room in your purse, but can't fill much space in your cupboard.
