associates to get out of the Ko-
rean mess. They expected us to
accept almost any terms, which
would have given them one of
the most important military and
political victories in Asia.
Under the reaction of Ameri-
can public opinion this plan did
not succeed. We wanted peace
desperately. but were unwilling
to pay the high price demanded
by the enemy.
Moscow, however, still believes
that in view of the exorbitant
cost of meeting present and fu-
ture Red aggreSSionS. the Ameri-
can people will hesitate to ac-
cept its challenge and ultimately
will demand that our leaders
throw in the sponge.
The Russian espionage sery-
ice may be superlative, insofar
as gathering scientific and mill
tary information is concerned.
But it is lamentably weak in
evaluating the character and
psychology of the American
people. They are likely to mis-
understand us as much as the
Japanese war lords did before
Pearl Harbor.
The apparent bitter dissen-
sion between the political men.
the bitter denunciations of the
administration, may give the
appearance of a nation dis
united. But these Semi-AsiaticS
do not and cannot understand
that if they provoked a show
down these apparently bitter
fights will disappear in

meet the challenge from wher-
ever it may come.

Text of Jap Premier Yoshdo's Address to Conference

of amity with the United States
of America in 1854 Meanwhile,
there have been two world wars
bringing astounding changes on
the map of the Far East. Present
at this conference are the dele
gates representing a number of
new states-most of which are
members of the United Nations,
born here in San Francisco six
years ago. They are united with
many other states in the East and
the West in the one purpose to
advance the cause of world
democracy and freedom and to
promote world peace and pros
perity through unreserved CO.
operation under the charter of
the United Nations.
l am glad to believe that the
signing of the japanese peace
treaty today marks one good fruit
of their noble endeavors in that
direction. 1t is my sincere hope
that Japan will soon be permitted
to join that glorious world organi-
zation of yours. For it is in the
very language Of the charter it
self that there is to be found the
essense of the ideals and the
determination of the new Japan.
Nowhere more than in Japan
itself can there be found today a
greater determination to play a
full part in saving succeeding
generations from the scourge of
war"
New Japan Rises.
We have listened here to the
delegates who have recalled the
terrible human suffering, and the
great material destruction of the
late war iE the Pacific. 1t is with
feelings of sorrow that we recall
the part played in that catastro-
phic human experience by the
old Japan.
I speak of the old Japan, be-
cause of the ashes of the old
Japan there has risen a new
J9pan.
My people have been among
those who suffered greatly from
the destruction and devastation
of the recent war. Purged by that
suffering of all untoward ambi-
tion, of all desire for the path of
military conquest, my people burn
now with a passionate desire to
live at peace with their neighbors
in the Far East, and in the entire
world. and to rebuild their society
so that it will in ever greater full
ness yield a better life for all.
Japan has opened new chap
ter in its history.
We see in the future a new era
among nations, an era of peace
and harmony as described in the
opening words of the charter of
thee United Nations.
We seek to take our place among
the nations who are dedicated to
peace, to justice to progress and
freedom, and we pledge ourselves
that Japan shall play its full part
in striving toward these ends.
We pray that henceforth not
only Japan but all mankind may
know the blessings of harmony
and progress.

We participated. Americas very
existence was not at stake in
them. Now even the uninformed
people in this country realize
that it is no longer a question of
saving France or Britain or any
other free nation from destruc-
ton. but it is a matter of pre-
serving the United States it,
self.
Moscow and it's stooges can
not realize that, regardless of
how much the administration
is attacked from within for its
glaring lack of foresight and
incompetence in the conduct of
postwar foreign relations, and
regardless of how bitter the
political controversies may be in
this country today, there will be
a united America if its existence
is ever threatened.
This lack of understanding of
our psychology by our enemies
is more dangerous to the peace
of the world than all military
preparations which now are TAX
ing place all over the globe. The
Politburo evaluates the power
of its opponents by the number
of divisions and air groups they
now possess. 1t calculates that
the burden of world rearmament,
which falls principally on the;
shoulders of the American tax
payer. will not be carried by
him much longer and that the
prospects of digging much
deeper into his pocket will make
American resistance to the Red
onslaught impossible.
The Politburo overlookS, how
ever. because it has none, the
spiritual power and the intense
devotion of American citizens
to their institutions.

japanese delegation notes the alb
sence of India and Burma. AS an
Asiatic nation. Japan is specially
desirous to cultivate relations of
closest friendship and co-opera-
ton with other Asiatic nations
with whom we share common
problems, common spiritual and
cultural heritageS. and common
aspirations and ideals. We hope
Japan may become a good mem
ber of the world community by
being first a good member of the
immediate neighborhood by con-
tributing her full share toward
its prosperity and progress.
AS regards to China, l confine
my remarks to two points. The
first point is that like others, we
regret that disunity prevents
China from being here. The sec
ond is that the role of China
trade in japanese economy, i'm
portant as it is, has often been
exaggerated, as proven by our ex-
perience of the past six years.
Unfortunately, the sinister
forces of totalitarian oppression
and tyranny operate still through
out the globe. These forces are
sweeping over half the Asiatic
continent. sowing seeds of disSen-
sion. spreading unrest and con-
fusion, and breaking out into open
aggression here and therein
deed, at the very door of Japan.
Being unarmed as we are, we
must, in order to ward off the
danger of war, seek help from
country that can and will help
US. That is why we shall conclude
a security pact with the United
States under which American
troops will be retained in Japan
temporarily until the danger is
past, or international peace and
security will have been assured
under the United Nations auspices
or a collective security arrange
ment. Japan was exposed once to
the menace of ZariSt imperialism
from the North. Today it is the
Communist menace that threat
ems her from the same direction.
When the Allied troops are with
drawn from our country with the
conclusion of peace, producing a
state of vacuum in the country, it
is clear as day that this tide of
aggression will beat down upon
our shores. 1t is imperative for
the sake of our very existence that
we take an adequate security
measure.
Japan No Menace.
This should not raise the bug
bear of japanese peril. Japan,
beaten and battered. dispossessed
of her overseas possessions and
resources, is absolutely incapable
of equipping herself for modern
warfare to such an extent as to
make her a military menace to
her neighborS. For that she has
not the materials; she has not the
means; she has not the will.
President Truman, at the OPEN
ing ceremony of this conference,
spoke of the sweeping political
and social reforms of the spiritual
regeneration, as we'll as the mate
rial rehabilitation of Japan, which
the country has realized during
the past six postwar years of
Allied occupation under the wide
direction and benevolent guidance
of the Supreme Commander for
the Allied Powers, General of the
Army, Douglas Macarthur, and
his successor, General Ridgway.
Japan of today is no longer the
Japan of yesterday. We will not
fail your expectations of us as a
new nation dedicated to peace,
democracy and freedom.
Almost century has passed
since Japan first entered the world
community by concluding a treaty

powers Allied nations, which have
suffered no damage from the war,
to seize japanese private property
in their countries. There is fear
as to whether Japan, reduced to
such a predicament, could ever
manage to pay reparations to GER
tain designated allied powers
without shifting the burden upon
the other allied powers. However,
we have undertaken the obliga-
tions of the treaty in this respect,
and we mean to carry them out. I
solicit the understanding and
support of the governments con-
cerned vis-a-Vis Japan's efforts
toward a satisfactory solution of
this problem in the fact of huge
difficulties.
Progress Toward Recovery.
With her war shattered econ
omy Salvaged through American
aid, Japan is making progress on
the road of recovery. We are de-
termined that "our nation shall
cease to be a burden on other
countries but shall contribute
positively to world prosperity,
while observing fully the fair
trade practices in International
commerce. The present treaty
opens the door to the realization
of such aspirations of Japan in
the field of international economy.
But the same door may be closed
by the allied nations at any time.
This may be an inherent feature
of such a peace treaty. only hope
that the door will be, kept open
by all countries as widely as pos
sible.
Since my speech was prepared.
I have heard the three questions
put to me this morning by the
distinguished Foreign Minister of
IIndoneSia. The questions seek to
resolve doubts such as have been
expressed by some others. The
answer to these questions is eyes"
since that means in our opinion
fair Interpretation of Articles IA
and of the treaty. I hope that
this answer will resolve any doubts
of others as to Japan'S good inten-
tionS under the treaty.
Thirdly, there is the question of
'reparation.
The conclusion of this peace
treaty srouses afresh the anxiety
of the japanese people regarding
the fate of the more than 340,000
of their compatriotS, who have
failed to return. In the name of
humanity, I would like to appeal
to all allied powers for continued
assistance and cooperation
toward speeding the repatriation
of these hapless japanese Nation
ais through the inStrumentality
of the United Nations, or by any
other means. We are thankful
that a provision relating to repa-
ration has been inserted in the
treaty at the final stage of draft
ing.
In spite of the existence of
these causes for anxiety, or rather
because of it, Japan is all the
more anxious to conclude the
peace treaty. For We expect that
Japan as a sovereign and equal
power would gain wider oppor-
Itunities for eliminating anxiety
, as well as for dissipating the dis
Fsatisfactions. apprehensions and
!, misgivings on the part of other
powers.
Regret Absences.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. g.
TeTt of an address By Prem
ier Shigeru YoShida OF Japan
to the japanese Peace Confer
ence last night tolloUS:
The japanese delegation accepts
the peace treaty before the confer
ence. It will restore the japanese
people to full sovereignty. equality
and freedom, and reinState us as
a free and equal member in the
community of nations. 1t is not a
treaty of vengeance, but an inStru-
ment Of reconciliation. This fair
and generous treaty commands, l
assure you, an overwhelming sup
port of my Nation.
On the other hand, during these
past few days in this very con-
ference hall, criticisms and COM
plants have been voiced by some
delegations against this treaty. 1t
is impossible that any one can be
completely satisfied with multi
lateral peace settlement of this
kind. Even we japanese, who are
happy to accept the treaty. find
in it certain points which cause
US pain and anxiety.
I speak of this with diffidence,
bearing in mind the treaty'S fair
ness and magnanimity unparal-
leled in history and the position
of Japan. But would be remiSS
IN my obligation to my own people
if I failed to call your attention
to these points.
In the first place, there is the
matter of territorial disposition.
The Ryukyu Archipelago and the
Bonins may be placed under
United Nations truSteeShip. The
statements by the American and
British delegates on the residual
sovereignty of Japan over these
islands are a source of gratiflca-
ton to my colleagues and to all
my countrymen. l cannot but hope
that the administration of these
islands will be put back into
Japanese hands in the not dis
tant future with the re-eStabliSh-
ment of world security-especially
the security of Asia.
Ownership Not Disputed.
With respect to the KurileS and
South Saghalien (Sadkhalin), the
Soviet delegate spoke the other
day as though Japan had grabbed
them by aggression. To state the
truth, Japan's ownership of the
South KurileS was never disputed
by the CzariSt government, while
the exchange of South Saghalien
for the North KurileS between
Russia and Japan was agreed upon
in 1875 between the two govern
ments through diplomatic negotia-
tionS. 1t was under the treaty OF
Portsmouth of 1905 concluded
through the intermediary of Pres
ldent Theodore Roosevelt of the
United States that South Sag
halien became also Japanese terri
tory.
Both Saghalien and the NORTH
and South Kuriles were placed
under Soviet occupation as of Sep
tember 20, 1945, shortly aftel
Japan's surrender. Even the is.
