The Communist empire builders
lost ground, politically and mill
tarily, in their excursion into Q
shooting war with the free nations
on the Korean battle-ground.
Unless Russia tries belatedly to
retrieve it's position by rushing
Chinese Communist or Russian
military aid to the shattered forces
of her North Korean satellite, she
will find the Korean experiment
costly to her military position and
political prestige.
If the Communists had not
gambled, South Korea today woulc
be what it was last June IS mill
tarily weak country with a small
lightly equipped army and an in
ternal security force.
Weak State No Longer.
But now the formerly weak buf-
fer state between Communist Rus
sia and American garrisonec
Japan has 10000 men fighting
for it, powerful air force flying
against its enemy, fleet of 20C
warships ringing the Communists
from the sea.
South Korean troops are NOV
ing in force into North Korea. II
all Korea is unified and becomes
one free nation. Russia will find
she is facing United Nations
forces not across a weak buffer
state but across Communist Man
churia and her own Siberian
border.
In the Korean war a Commu-
mist army of more than 100000
men has been cut up, rendered in
effectual, virtually destroyed.
Russia herself has a huge pool OF
manpower for military purposes,
but a noteworthy portion of Com
munist military strength has been
lost in the gamble.
Launched U. S. Arms Drive.
The Korean war which the
Communists launched triggered q
vast. multi-billion dollar American
rearmament program. Moscow
didn't want that. Why did the
Kremlin make a move that pre-
cipitated It?
What the Communists appear to
have wanted was to wipe out the
free government of South Korea
eradicate the 38th parallel and
make all of the peninsula a Com
munist nation.
There are indications that could
have been accomplished even
tually by the usual Communist
technique of infiltration and sub
version. Now it appears the
political issue of Korean unifica-
ton will be settled-by driving the
Communist government out.
What impelled the Kremlin to
resort to war in the Far East and
risk setting OF another world con-
flict?
Soviet Prestige Involved.
1t may be that the Communist
leaders. the Politburo, felt a sue
cessful. free South Korea no
longer could be tolerated, not even
long enough to overcome it by
stealth.
Soviet prestige was involved.
Some of the Western satellites,
like Yugoslavia. were becoming
restless and should be shown the
power Of communism. In the
Orient, prestige ~ "face"-is of
paramount Importance. Here.
Moscow undoubtedly reasoned, the
need for a demonstration of power
was particularly needed.
Now the attempt at improving
face" appears to have backfired.
1t is for this reason that new
drastic Communist move some
where else in the world is con-
sidered possible. Russia must try
to regain the lost ground.
