MEMO FOR RECORD : (SCAPIN - 1077)
WFM/JMcIH/RAM/gg
3 July 1946
1. Pursuant to the policy set forth in JCS Directive 1380/15, dated 3 November 1945, investigations are being made of concerns which are not listed on inclosure to SCAP Memorandum AG 004 (8 Dec 1945) ESS/AC (SCAPIN-403), subject: "Establishment of a Schedule of Restricted Concerns, " or subsequent additions thereto. The Daiwa Industrial Company, Ltd., (Daiwa Sangyo K. K.) was placed on the Schedule of Restricted Concerns on 20 March 1946 as a subsidiary of Fuji Industrial Company, Ltd., by SCAP Memorandum AG 004 (20 Mar 1946) ESS/AC (SCAPIN-831), subject: "Addition of Subsidiaries of Fuji Industrial Company, Ltd. , on Schedule of Restricted Concerns."
2. As the Daiwa Industrial Company, Ltd., (Daiwa Sangyo K. K.) referred to in paragraph 1, above, had not as yet made the reports required of Restricted Concerns, all information on the Daiwa Industry Company, Ltd., (Daiwa Kogyo K. K.) was obtained from the Statistics and Research Division files. Because that Division translates Kogyo to Industrial and Sangyo to Industry, it was believed that Daiwa Industry Company, Ltd,, (Daiwa Kogyo K. K.) was the same concern that had, at a prior date, been restricted as a subsidiary of Fuji Industrial Company, Ltd., and that its subsidiaries were, in fact, second degree subsidiaries. Therefore, the Daiwa Industry Company, Ltd., (Daiwa Kogyo K. K.) and its subsidiaries, although participating in the same malpractices followed by the thirteen (13) textile concerns placed on the Schedule of Restricted Concerns by SCAP Memorandum AG 004 (8 Jun 46) E3S/AC (SCAPIN-1004) the subsidiaries were not placed on the Schedule of Restricted Concerns, but, instead, these "second degree" subsidiary firms were listed on inclosure to SCAP Memorandum ;AG 004 (8 Jun 46) ESS/AC (SCAPIN-1008), subject: "Limitation of Reports from Certain Concerns. "
3. a. To correct this situation, the subsidiaries of Daiwa Industry Company, Ltd. (Daiwa Kogyo K.K.), as listed below, are being deleted from inclosure to Memorandum (SCAPIN-1008), referred to in paragraph 2, above, and because of their indulgence in certain malpractices indicated in paragraph 2, above, and pursuant to JCS Directive referred to in paragraph 1, above, the Daiwa Industry Company, Ltd., (Daiwa Kogyo K. K.), and its subsidiaries listed below, should be added to the Schedule of Restricted Concerns:
b. In Japan:
General Machinery Company, Ltd. Soyo Rubber Company, Ltd.
Kansai Sailcloth Chemical Waterproof Company, Ltd. Yamatogawa Ore Dressing Company, Ltd.
Shimane Fibre Company, Ltd.
c. Outside Japan:
Chosen Daiwa Cotton Spinning Company, Ltd. Taiya Textile Company, Ltd.
Kitsugawa Dock Company, Ltd. Toa Heavy Industry Company, Ltd.
Soyo Rubber Works Company, Ltd.
4. This Division is re-checking the names of all Restricted Concerns to verify the correctness of previous translation of their names;upon completion, any discrepancies will be corrected.
5. The interests of USAFIK have been considered. This action does not affect the Korean area.
6. This is considered an administrative natter.
7. Concurrences: Legal Division, ESS (Lt. Col. E. R. Minnich); Industrial Division, ESS (Major W. L. Bunting).
