_Tuesday - 30 July 1974
9. Called George Gilbert, OMB, to
tell him that things were moving rapidly on the House side on the Foreign
Assistance Act and that our information (both from AID and Al Westphal,
House Foreign Affairs Committee staff) was that Congressman Donald M.
Fraser (D., Minn. ) had already or would soon introduce an amendment
similar ti_adi_ena_tor Abourezk's amendment No. 1511 to S. 3394. Because
the House Foreign Affairs Committee was beginning markup on the
House bill tomorrow morning at 10:00, E requested verbal approval on
our letter to Chairman Morgan. Gilbert said that he would try but it was
unlikely that OMB would be able to give clearance before the next
afternoon.
Later, Mr. Cary called Jim Oliver, OMB, on the same subject
underscoring the urgency of our request. I read our letter to Oliver who
typed out a copy on his end. Oliver said he would do what he could but
again thought it would be the next afternoon before the letter could be cleared.
10. Called Dennis Neill, OGC/AID, to
briefly bring him up-to-speed on the Agency's actions concerning the
expected Fraser amendment to 1-14_,Eagaigi, .s..t-var A_r_?,similar to
Senator s amendment jag...2111. to S. 3391.

Hernard Owe n)
WASHINGT i, JULY 24 cretaxy of State
Kissinger sal oday th though the Nixon
Administratio did approve of South
Korea's represrii p es, it had decided to
continue econien military aid for Asian
security rerison.?
Testifying her Senate Appropriations
subcommittee dministration's fore-
ign aid requ enger was asked by
Senator E W. B'he, Republican of
Massachu how the inistration jus-
tified co 13?4i aid to co tries like South
Korea police units e "authoritar-
ian."
Mr Winger, aware of moire n the Con-
gr to bar military aid to tee ?vernment
esident Park Chung Hee bec of the
espread arrosts and repression critics,
id that aft in a consideration o outh
orea's political and strategic importa e in
Asia, the Administration decided "to au or-
ize economic- and Military assistance n
when we won!D, not recommend the actio
of the Govermaent of South Korea."
.71,PAN'S VIEW IS CTTED
He said the! South Korea's strategic posi-
tion was "very crucial" to Japan and that
"our judgment has been shared by the gov-
ernment of Japan."
"Where we believe the national interest
is at Stake we proceed even when we don't
approve" of ii. country's policies, Mr. Kis-
singer said.
In the H01.:3,:, Representative Donald M.
Fraser, Democrat of Minnesota, chairman of
the Foreign Affairs subcommittee on interna-
tional organizations, plans e, joint hearing
next Tuesday with Representative Robert N.
C. Nix's subcommittee on Asian and Pacific
affairs, to cion iiicier proposing a possible cut-
off of .militar- aid to Korea because of Mr.
Park's policieei. Mr. Nix is a Pennsylvania
Democrat.
The Admit] iitration has requested $161-
million in aid and $52-million in low-inter-
est military credit sales to South Korea for
the current ft E;cal year ending next June 30.
Mr. Kissinger's remarks about South Korea
were consistelit with the Administration's
view that eiem..ity interests take precedence
over lnurnan rig nits considerations in aid mat-
ters.
Mr. Kissing:-c. also strongly defended the
Administration's aid requests for Indochina,
which run more than $3-billion, on the
ground that such aid was needed to main-
tain "the achievement of recent years."
He also disclosed that the Administration
had submitted a six-year projection "which
reflects our expectation of a gradually de-
clining role in Indochina."
Senator Daniel K. Inouye, Democrat of
Hawaii, complained that the six-year projec-
tion was classified "secret," and therefore the
figures could not be debated publicly. Mr.
Kissinger promised to declassify much of
the report by next week.
MIDEAST AID DEFENDED
Mr. Kissinger defended the bill's requests
for more than 31-billion in aid to Middle
Eastern countries. He said "the program be-
fore you is vital to give substance" to the new
improving relations in the area.
"We are witnessing one of the most ardu-
ous but also one of the most hopeful develop-
ments of the past generation," he said.
Most of the committee members seemed
favorably disposed to the aid bill, but Senator
John L. McClellan, Democrat of Arkansas,
chairman of the full Appropriations Commit-
tee, seemed dubious about the program.

EOUL, SOUTH KOREA, July 24.-The Seoul
di ct criminal court sentenced five civil-

uprisi against President Park Chung Hee.
Three her civilians were sentenced to life

SOUTH KOREAN OPPRESSION AND
FOREIGN AID
(Mr. FRASER asked and was given
Permission to extend his remarks at this
point in the RECORD and to include ex-
traneous matter.)
Mr. FRAF3ER. Mr. Speaker, a growing
number of our colleagues are finding it
difficult to justify propping up the op-
pressive regime of South Korea's Park
Chung lice with U.S. military assistance.
How can we Justify military assistance
to South Korea while Park rules with
the iron hand of martial law, arbitrarily
arresting, detaining, and sentencing to
death all manner of political opponents?
Ostensibly, the United States supports
South Korea against potential aggres-
sion from North Korea. But 21 years
after the Korean war, it is increasing],
difficult to determine which Korean
government is more reprehensible.
Under its present domestic policies,
the Park government is its own worst
enemy. How long will the oppressive
regime of Kim n Sung in North Korea
be seen as a greater threat to the rights
and freedom of the People of South
Korea than the oppressive regime of
Park Chung Hee?
President Park arbitrarily casts aside
the rights of his countrymen by saying,
"We can no longer sit idle while wasting
our precious national power in imitating
the systems of others." Whether he imi-
tates other systems or not, he evidently
expects our system to continue support-
ing him. And the poll:I/Makers of our
executive branch intend to fulfill his ex-
pectations. Only last week Secretary of
State Kissinger dismissed a congres-
sional query about aid to Park with this
statement: "where our national interest
Is at stake, we proceed even when we
don't approve." I cannot believe that the
national interest of the United States is
tied to Park Chung Hee's blatant disre-
gard for Internationally recognized
standards of decency toward his own
people. Accordingly, in the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, I intend to Propose a
substantial reduction in the amount re-
quested by the adminstration for mili-
tary assistance to South Korea this year.
I urge all of our colleagues to support
that reduction on the House floor. And
this week, the gentleman from Pennsyl-
vania (Mr. Nix) and I will begin joint
hearings in our two subcommittees on
human rights in South Korea.
Mr. Speaker, I have always been an
active supporter of the concept of assist-
ing developing countries in their hard
task of nation building. But my support
for aid legislation will diminish unless
the policies of the executive branch dem-
onstrate a more active concern for inter-
nationally recognized human rights. I
refer especially to military assistance.
since military power is so often an in-
strument of governmental control over
the civilian population.
I urge our colleagues to ask them-
selves whether the traditional concern
of the American people for human rights
should be represented by strengthening
the appressive hand of gas ernments such
as that of South Korea.
An editorial in the Washington Post
on July 27 addresses itself to some of
the concerns I have expressed here. I
Include It la the RECORD at this point:

Late in 1972. President Park of South
