NOTE ON SOURCES The materials microfilmed for this publication are reproduced from Record Group 59 located at the National

Archives in Washington, D.C.

EDITORIAL NOTE The Department of State's files in Record Group 59 are composed of Central Files, records originating from

various embassies and consulates, other agencies, and within the State Department itself; and "Special Files" or Lot Files, records maintained by various offices, bureaus, individuals, and committees in the department. The records microfilmed for this publication are reproduced from three Special Files.

University Publications of America made its selection of which special files to microfilm after an extensive search of archival indexes for records relating to the countries of the Northeast Asia region (Japan and Korea) and its special role on the cold war battleground.

These records were microfilmed in their original archival order as filed by the State Department. As a result, while most of the documents within each folder are filmed in reverse chronological order, some are filmed in chronological sequence and a small percentage have no sequential order at all.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE Maintained by various offices, bureaus, individuals, and committees in the Department of State, the Special

Files contain a vast amount of information on a variety of foreign policy subjects. Originally, the Special Files were to contain only reference copies of correspondence, memoranda, minutes of meetings, reports, position papers, briefing materials, studies, and other nonrecord material maintained for convenience in office or individual files. Official copies of all permanently valuable State Department records were supposed to be included in the Central Files of the department. World War II and the s ubsequent cold war, however, put a heavy strain on the record-keeping system at the department Also, officials became more reluctant to send particularly sensitive or important records to the more general Central Files. As a result, many original documents, record copies, working papers, drafts, informal notes, and annotated copies of memoranda were incorporated into the Special Files.

The Special File number comprises the last two digits of the year in which the file was retired or deactivated by the originating office or individual, a letter designation (D for department origination, F for origination at a Foreign Service post, and M for a special mission), and a final number that simply indicates the sequence in which a particular collection was retired. For example, Special File 54-D-278 refers to 1954 as the year in which the file was deactivated, D as originating at the Department of State, and it being the 278th file retired that year. It should be noted, however, that not all files that have been retired are still in existence. Some have been consolidated with similar material or have been destroyed because of a lack of permanently valuable records.

LotFües54-D-278and58-D-529: Records ofthe Directors of the Office ojNortheastAsian Affairs (U.Alexis Johnson), 1945-1953

These are personal files of U. Alexis Johnson, the director ofthe Office of Northeast Asian Affairs in 1950 and 1951. These records primarily relate to the Korean War and to its peace talks.

There is also a chronological file for the early part of 1951 as well as personal files, a correspondence file, and a memoranda of conversations file.

Lot File 60-D-330: Records ofthe Office of Northeast Asian Affairs (Briefing Books), 1943-1954 This is a separate file of briefing books and reference material maintained by the Office of Northeast Asian

Affairs. The briefing books relate to Japan, Korea, and international conferences pertaining to the Far East.
