| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, detailed organizations of the Office of War Inforemation(OWI), USA for overseas propaganda radio broadcasting toward Asia and Pacific area was revealed from public records of NARA. Second, as a result of reviewing radio programs recorded in Japanese, Chinese and Korean, it became clear that OWI attached importance to both Japanese and Chinese broadcasting, though Korean programs were treated lightly until 1944. Contents, policy and staff of Korean radio programs were also clarified. Third, distinctions of Japanese and Chinese programs in OWI broadcasting were usage of news from news agencies including AP, and linguistic varieties of Chinese including not only Northern Mandarin but also Cantonese. Fourth, most of OWI English programs were commentaries including 'Victory for China' series toward Chinese in USA, and programs for the Allied Powers broadcasted in late 1945 after the end of the war.
