Of U.N. Trusteeship
Over Okinawa
WASHINGTON, UP)— The United
States Saturday ruled out the
possibility of any U.N. trusteeship
over the great island base of Oki
nawa or other islands in the Ryu
kyu and Bonin groups south of

ment made in Tokyo by Secretary

the United States would have full
power of administration over all
the Ryukyu and Bonin Islands,
taken from Japan at the end of
World War II, pending establish
ment of any U.N. trusteeship ar
rangements.
