光復初期臺糖的銷售問題-十五萬噸敵糖的來龍去脈(1945-1947)

The Sales of Tai-Sugar during 1945-1947: An Investigation into the Cause and Effect of 150,000 Metric Tons of Sugar Obtained from the Japanese Government

摘要


本論文研究之緣起,肇因於「二二八事件處理委員會」處理大綱42條款中有一項要求中央歸還15萬噸糖,未悉其與228事件有何關係?此外,坊間書籍有陳儀用15萬噸糖與中央交換法幣不在臺灣發行之說,類此說法難免令人質疑。故本文主要在探討臺灣光復初期,政府接收日本15萬噸敵糖的來龍去脈及其影響。首先,敘述15萬噸敵糖的來源,原是在戰後日本留存臺灣約34萬餘噸的砂糖,嗣因各種原因及耗損,至1946(民國35)年3、4月間,始確知砂糖數量只剩下約15萬噸。其次,分析何以中央與地方爭相獲得這批敵糖?行政院下令歸中央所有後,臺糖公司奉令代運至上海銷售,所得糖款全部收歸國庫,地方並無所得,因而導致民怨。再次,考證臺灣省行政長官陳儀是否曾以15萬噸糖送給中央政府做為交換條件,以阻止法幣在臺發行?經據檔案史料考證分析,並將兩者發生時間交叉比對推論後,證明此說法乃是以訛傳訛之誤。最後,敘及白崇禧來臺宣慰調查後提出臺政改革意見之一,就是建議將15萬噸糖銷售所得一半撥還臺糖公司,以消除民怨,經蔣中正主席批准後,臺灣省終於得以收回二分之一食糖的貨款,由此印證15萬噸糖與228事件民怨確實有密切關係,此有助於228事件發生原因的探究,也是另一項史料的重大發現。總之,本文旨在試圖釐清歷年來史學界對於15萬噸敵糖的爭議性課題,並瞭解其對光復初期臺灣經濟社會的影響。

In Item 42 of the Outlines for Handling the 228 Incident, it regulated that there is an amount of 150,000 metric tons of sugar to be returned by the central government to the people. It is quite interesting to know what the sugar had to do with this Incident. It arise a rumor that Chen Yi used the 150,000 metric tons of sugar to trade with the central government in order to stop it from issuing legal currency in Taiwan. The purpose of this article is to explore the cause and effect of the takeover of 150,000 metric tons of sugar from the Japanese government. It was said that there had been more than 340,000 metric tons of sugar left by the Japanese after the war, but in reality only 150,000 metric tons was found in the spring of 1946. Why did then the central government and the local government try to seize this sugar? The Executive Yuan announced that the sugar belonged to the central government and ordered Tai-sugar Company to sell it in Shanghai and the obtains should all go into the national treasury. This enraged the local government and the people of Taiwan. This paper further cites evidence to show that the trade between Chen Yi and the central government with the sugar was a mere speculation. Furthermore, it found that the investigation made by Pai Chung-hsi finally provided a suggestion that the central government should return half of the gains from the sales to Tai-sugar Company to appease the people. This suggestion was later approved by Chiang Kai-shek and part of the sugar money was returned to Taiwan Province Government. In this sense, the sales of the sugar did have something to do with the 228 Incident.
