Description
The Pauley Mission was among the first Americans to officially investigate conditions in Manchuria after World War II. This photograph was taken in Mukden, showing the welcome sign. Edwin Pauley was the U.S. Ambassador on the Allied Reparations Committee from 1945-47 (the committee that assessed the reparations the Axis powers could afford to pay the victors).
