要約：米国国務省内部のメールのやり取り （1952年11月4日)
「・・竹島（独島）がＳＦ条約で日本の領土（these rocks as a facility of the Japanese Government）になったのにもかかわらず、韓国がSCAPIN677を理由に竹島（独島）の領土権を主張してるのは馬鹿げているなんとかしなければ・・」という米国政府の苦悩がわかる文書です。

The action of the United States-Japan Joint Committee in
designating these rocks as a facility of the Japanese Government is therefore
justified. The Korean claim, based on SCAPIN677 f January 29, 1946, which suspended Japanese administration of various island areas,
including Takeshima (Liancourt Rocks), did not preclude Japan from
exercising sovereignty over this area permanently. A later SCAPIN, No.1778 of September 16, 1947 designated the islets as a bombing range for the
Far East Air Force and further provided that use of the range would be made only
after notification through Japanese civil authorities to the inhabitants of the Oki Islands and certain ports on Western Honsu.
