General Situation: (a) Governmental Functions Transferred: The transfer of all governmental functions and accounts from the old South Korean Interim Government to the Government of the Korean Republic was successfully concluded on 18 Dec when all civilian supply accounts in banks were transferred to the Republic. This final turnover of control completed all action stipulated in the financial and property settlement agreement signed by U.S. and Korean representatives on 11 Sep (Intell. Summary 2211). (a) (b) Impeachment Threatened: SUH Sang Il, member of the National Assembly and the Hankook Democratic Party recently stated that the Hankook party will attempt to impeach YUN Chi Yung, Minister of Home Affairs, on or about 20 Dec. SUH claimed that there is sufficient evidence to support the impeachment, but he did not disclose the nature of this evidence. Another Assemblyman stated recently that the Hankooks may also play a part in an attempt to impeach Prime Minister LEE Bum Suk and Director of Public Information KIM Dong Sung, in addition to the Minister of Home Affairs, according to a fairly reliable source. Source Comment: The Hankook Democratic Party, the foremost exponent of "reorganization," seems intent upon strengthening its position in the Government of the Korean Republic by removing persons who are particularly obstructive in the establishment of a Cabinet predominantly of Hankook members.
