Thertstortx the plight oi the Kurrmr nationals tn Japan has

There are 600,00!) Korean nationals in Japan. Most nt them
are those who went tu Japan to find a way at warning :1 liveli-
hoorl, tlriven out from thCll' native place by the Japanese imperi-alists in the days ni the Japanese occupation of Korea, or those

Lug to all sorts oi persecutiu‘ and .hreata to drag the intenteesin South Korea against their will and u used even the case ofmurder of Chang: Dong Keun. Korean citizens were forced to
take the “pledge” to go to Swath Korea at their “flee will.” Thisshows that the Japanese government did not seek justly to solvethe question of the Korean cit' ens held in the Oniura Camp as
a question pertaining in humanity, but pruceerlcu from the designto use them as ho" ages aurl forcibly expel them to South Korea,deceiving the unhia it public opinion, in “exchange" in: the re
lease of the Japanese fishermen hehl in South Korea.We deem it necessary to recall here that the ivlfltenlent dated

oi Foreign Minister Nam ll of the D.P.R.Kvon the question of the Korean cit ,ens in Japan and the state-ment of spokesman oi the Foreign Ministry of the D.P.R,K. dat-erl October 15, 1955 on the question of the Korean citizens held
in the Omura Camp pointed out the unreasonable move at the
Japanese government against the Korean citizens held in the()mura Camp and outlined a series of measures for the solutionoi this question.
The fact shows however, that even after the above-mention-ed statements were made the conditions of the Korean citizensheld in the Ornura Camp have been far from improving midimore, situations Hi‘r being lurthcr aggravated (lite to the mH'

STATEMENT OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE C.C. OF
THE KOREAN RED CROSS SOCIETY DEMANDING
COMPLETE ENSURANCE 0F EXPRESSION OF
FREE WILL OF KOREAN INTERNEES IN
JAPANESE CAMPS
February 18, 1958
These days, the Japanese government and the South Korean
piithorities, under the manipulation of the (LS, imperialists.nave taken steps to repatriate forcibly to South Korea the most
[tart or the Korean nationals detained in the Japanese eanips.
_'tlte Japanese Red Cross Society allirmed more than oi
their Willingness to have a regard for the Red Cross principles'
l promised in take necess' ry measures for reali7inq the home
Qtilllq ni Korean nationals in Japan. The actual situation, how-
“\":t', has been going: from bad to worse.
,
Syntzman Rhee’s agents who have smuggled theiiisnhv»,
ttttn the Japanese camps, are resorting: to every ilirtv means to
litt‘tl tlinxe K ’Call iniernees who want to return to the l).P.l?,K.
from expressing their will in choose their plane til residenre
lt'm‘ly. To add to this, s Kort-an interiiees wishing to return (It
the l).P.R.l<. were growing in number, the Japanese authorities
haw been bringing pre ire to bear upon them to etirh the fret?-
tittlll iii expressing the, desire.
Such state oi Eli'I-illl'g iii the Japanese ramps caused mam

death prescribed for them by the Syngman Rhee eliiiue and
Japanese authorities,
The Japanese eamp authorities are trying to riirh the free
dam of those Koreans who are released from the camps, by pro-
riding a “guarantee [or fidelity.” Members of tllt‘ isn‘t iIt‘tl
“Legation” in Japan oi Rhee's regime, “hi :hi- tarit athni ‘10“
of the Japanese authorities, smuggled tlieiiiselvrs tlltt) the t-anips
and are pressing Korean nationals wishing to return to the
D.l-’.R.K, ta register themselves as“
'ti‘zens iii the Ropuhlir oi
Korea."
All this tells of the fact that the detained Korean nationals
are even denied their right in expressing their genuinely fret‘
will.‘
The Red Cross Society Hi the D l’.l<’.l<. has alway, claimed
that the Japanese government s outd itilir- measure» for ltllt‘ul’ltil'

among the Korean CittZL‘ItS in Japan,Such illegal act of interference must be stopped at once.
l‘rom the standpoint of the Red Cross organ' tinns it l5clear that the so»ealled “confirming the will” nr “streening” are
alien to the mis ion of the Red Cross Organizations and thingdiet should under no circumstances be done, A5 is publicly rer
engmzed, the basic nus on of the Red Cress organizationsvalue the life and rights of man and serve in a humanitarianway by rescuing the people in distress at an early dare. There-inre, we do not presume that the International Committee at theRed Cross will take part in the “screening" which encroaehesupon human rights.
The desire of the Korean citizens in Japan for returninghome is clear to anyone. They must be repatriated without delayin accordance with their ardent wish for returning to their fatherland r-the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. ,
We demand that the deci on of the Japanese governmentt)“ their repatriation be ptit into practice immediately.
Question: When and where will the businesslike negotia-tions [or realizing the Teturn home of the Korean citizens in
Japan he held with the Japanese Red Cross Society?

If the Japanese attiht .tnzs aqr to o Views thattalks should be held betw the Red Crns Societies HiKorea anti Japan, on the ba

hi this principle, we are fully prt.»pared to send at any time the represmttatives of this society InGeneva.
In order to hinder the return home of the Korean citizensin Japan the Syngman Rhee clique are lrantiealty manoeuvringto use the urgent humanitarian question for their unjust politicallots.[1
Such hooligan act of the Syngman Rhee clique ignoring tht~standards of international law and humanitarian principle~deserves no consideration at all and are being duly Condemnedand rejected by all the people oi the world who value justiceand human conscience.
Availing myself of this opportunity I expect that your new:service and other press organs irt Japan will cooperate from un~biased stand so that the return home of the Korean citizens inJapan may be realized as soon as possible.

men Inuue himself hilly understands this. Therefore, he
made it clear in his statement that “no one has an reason to
oppose the choosing oi re~idenoe by the Korean nationals iii
Japan” anrl “the method oi realizing their will must also he Li
humanitarian one”
This notwith. unrlina', luoue linked the collective return

Defying the t‘tillt lively manifested resolve oi the Korean

Ill
A
The miserable lot has made all of them unanimously desi-
TKAus' of returning home; and it is fully understandable that they
are launching a movement in cooperation with one another for
Collectively returning home in view of the prevailing circum-
stances in Japan, in which it is practically impossible to realize
we return homo individually.This notwithstanding, how could a responsible personage of
the Red Cross Society of a Country, which should regard the de-
[ance of true humanism as its first creed, advance such an absurd
argument as that it becomes a “political question" and not a
matter oi humanism when we relieve at one time hundreds of
mousanils oi people who are in distress and it is humanism when
we relieve people only?In the light of these tarts, the stand oi Inoue who speaks a-
bout the "individual return" of the Korean nationals in Japan is
nothing but an attempt to delay intentionally the, return home of
the Korean nationals in Japan to continuously ioree uponthem
a hard life and, more, to defend the stand of the Kishi govern»
ment which is trying to use the Korean nationals in Japan as
lever in the political bargaining with the traitorous Syngman
Rhee clique. _
No one can infringe upon the rights of the Korean nationalsin Japan to return to their iatherlanrt, the Democratic Peoples
Republic of Korea.'
Despite the bitter experiei , s of the rigid oppression iiiltl
exploitation hy the Japanese imperialist colonial rulers, we as
Mn‘tletl treatment due foreigners to the Japanese who had rL»
niained in Korea alter liberation and gave all assistance from the
lninninitarian standpoint in their returning home._
_
inuue may as Well recall once again the humanitarian niear
litre taken and as istance given by the Government at the Re
puhlw and the Korean Red Cross Society in the returning home
iii the Japanese from Korea in Apiil, 1956,
Our stand on the question at the return home
lll Japan is clear.'
All we demand is for the Kishi government to adrint the
«ntry oi ships oi our side into Japanese ports and immediately.Etlfl' appropriate measures for the exit of Koreans in Japan so the
mllpctive return home of the Korean nationals in Japan who are

The preparatory work for receiving them with warm fratern-

The Korean people are eagerly awaiting the home coming
of our fellow countrymen from Japan. They should come back
at the earliest possible date,
We will continue to do everything in our power till the re-

(From the Rodent; Shirtmoon, I‘d‘hl'll‘dil'v 21, 1959)
Today the entire Korean people are paying keen attentionto the question of the home coming oi the Korean nationals in
Japan and the broad public opinion of the world which i'e'peets

the verge of tarvzttiun. vannot be delayed any longer. The sett-
leiiient at ths question has entered the praitieal stage.As already reported, the Japanese government adopted on
February ill, a fiet‘lslun to send haelt lothe I).P.ll h’ the Korean nationals in Japan.
'
In solving the question of the return limiie oi the Koreans
llt Japan to the DPRK. the only thing leit tn he done is to talit‘
business-like measures,

alas, it should be solved between the governments of the two
nottntries without. any political consideration. To our regret,
hOWeVer, the Japanese government did not take such stand,
Accordingly, under such circumstances, the most reasonable
way would be [or the business-like question on the home t'tml-
tug of the Korean nationals in Japan to be solved between the
Red Cross Societies of the two countries.
There is no ground Whatever to delay the solution oi
businesslike question between the Red Cross Societies at tht’
two countries and there must be no hindrance.
The question depends upon whether the Japanese authoritieswill accept the proposal for holding at the earliest possible uittt- tl
negotiation between the Red Cross Societies oi the two countriesand solving the business-like problem through this negotiation
l'Or solving returning home the Korean nationals in Japan.
The Korean people as well as the [air public, opinion oi
