OF the Korean situation as the

its Pacific pipelines to reinforce

Ass~<iosea Pres, Sssff Writer


How did we come to get mixed
UP in Korea in the first place
This viii explain.
Korea. with its $1,000 souar,
miles, is about the size OF Utah. i
juts out from the northeast coast
Of Asia. almost touching Japan.
Korea now Is divided into two
Koreas: North and South. The
dividing line. very important ir
this story. Is the 3sth parallel oi
latitude.
North Of the line, where the
population is about 10 millior
Koreans. is the CommuniSt-run
Russian sponsored government
called the Democratic People,
Republic Of Korea"
South Of the 3sth parallel. and
backed by the United States. i.
the Republic OF Korea. Its popu.
lation is about 20 million Koreans
South Korea Is largely agricul-
tural. Most Of the industry Is ir
the North.
This is not the first time the
United States has had . hand ir
Korea's fate.
In 1907. after Russia had lost
its war with Japan. those two
nations signed their treaty OF
peace at Portsmouth. N. H.
President Theodore Roosevelt
assured the Japanese this coun-
try would look upon it favorably
If the japanese took control over
Korea, which at the time was all
one Korea and had its own gov
eminent.
The japanese took control
abused and despoiled the Ko-
reans. and in 1910 Just made
Korea part of Japan. In 1918
some Korean patriots asked the
Japanese for Korea's independ-
ence.
They were slaughtered. But
other Korean patriots. outside
Korea. set up a temporary gov
ernment-in-exile. They elected
DR.. Syngman Rhee President. He
had studied at Princeton Univer-
sity under Woodrow Wilson.
Then World War II. In 1913
at o Cairo conference with other
leaders of the Allies-President
Franklin D. Roosevelt agreed that
when Japan was licked the Ko-
reans should have their independ.
ence again.
In ls45. when the war was
coming to an end. there were
Japanese troops in Korea but
neither Russian nor American
troops. Russian troops were or
Korea's northern border. Ameri.
can troops were no closer than
Okinawa, 600 miles away.
If the war suddenly ended tn.
Russians could rush down anc
take over all of Korea. Then
State Department people explain
this Is what happened:
Heads Of the American Army
Navy and State Department fig.
ured out a plan. When the wal
ended Russians would come intt
Korea from the North and accept
the surrender of all japanese
forces north Of the 38th parallel
and occupy the country there

u. S. Influence in Koreo's S Fate
Can Be Traced Back to 1907

American troops would enter from
the South. accept the surrender
OF japanese troops south Of the
3sth parallel and occupy the
country there.
The japanese offered to sur
render August 10. lS45. The Rus
slams entered Korea August II.
The Americans didn't arrive until
September ls.
There have been statements
that this splitting Of Korea be-
tween Americans and Russians
at the 3sth parallel was agreed
to by President Roosevelt ut
his Yalta conference with Mar
Shal Stain.
tState Department people say
this is untrue. that President
Roosevelt. who died four months
before the Japanese surrender.
had nothing to do with IT.
The Russians threw UP q bar
rter at the 3sth parallel between
North and South Korea. A COM
mission Of Americans and Rus
SLAMS sat down to talk about wip-
ing out this barrier.
This got nowhere. The prob
lem was taken 10 the United Ma
tions. Meanwhile, Russian troops
occupied North Korea. American
troops occupied South Korea.
The Russians would let neither
the Americans nor United Nations
officials into North Korea.
Finally the u. N. decided TO let
the Koreans set up their own GOV
ernment, as promised at Cairo, BY
holding their own elections. Since
the U. N. people couldn't get into
the north. the elections were held
IN the south.
The southern republic began
life on August Is. ls4s. On Sep
tember 0. lS4S. the Russians es-
tablished the northern republic.

The North and South remained
apart. with the Communist-run
North pecking away at the South.
Finally. this week 1t attacked the
South. But the United States had
promised to help Korea II trouble
started. Yesterday President Tru-
man sent help.
This Government has spent
about $526 million In Southern
Korea to help get 1t on its feet.
The Army spent $3.50 million and
left behind s56 million in equip
ment. The Marshall Plan this past
year spent $50 million there and
proposed spending another 500
million next year.

Reds Announce Capture.
The fall of Seoul was first re-
ported by the Red radio from
Pyongyang, northern capital.
Radio Pyongyang broadcast
that Seoul had been occupied by
Northern troops after street tight.
ing. 1t asserted banks, public
buildings and the provincial gov
eminent had been taken over.
The Pyongyang broadcast said:
1.-THE Korean Dem ocratic
Peoples Army general headquar-
ters announced the complete &C.
cupation Of Seoul on June 20 as
follows:
'"The peoples army units, which
encircled Seoul on June ~, have
penetrated into the city and have

they completely occupied the city.
Peoples army units are now ad-
vancing southwark in pursuit of
of remnants of the South Korean
forces.
"On the occasion of the COM

North Korea) issued a statement

people. He urged the people of

South Korean "puppet govern

Washington was awaiting much
more definite word. from behind
the iron curtain.
Rusia's Pravda, often the
mouthpiece of Soviet policy.
charged the United States with
a. direct act OF, aggression against
the North Koreans and the Chi
nese Communists.
On the basis of all available in
formation, it was learned, the
Presidents advisers and the Chief
Executive himself estimated that
Russia probably would refrain
from any act leading to an open
and direct clash with the United
States.
U. 8. Objective Limited.
For the time being the United
States objective is sharply limited.
In accordance with the United
Nations resolution. the United
States is simply trying to drive
the Northern forces out Of South
ern Korea and. prevent new in
vasionS.
Thus officially the United States
is seeking to restore the situation
which existed before the fighting
began Sunday. From the Ameri-
can point of view the most favor
able action which Russia could
reasonably take would be some
thing designed to the same end.
Further to the south and east
the Presidents moves amounted
to stepped-up defensive prepara-
tions. That was the effect Of his
orders to speed aid to the Philip
pines and Indo-China and to send
a military mission to Indo China.
From Hanoi. Indo-C China, the
reaction was one of great enthusi-
asm, more for what. the United
States is now doing in Korea than
for the new aid plans. Leaders
there asserted that if Chinese
Communists invaded their coun-
try the United States could now
be expected to give the same kind
OF assistance as in Korea.
Such a reaction was expected
and even encouraged by the Pres
ident in countries under the threat
of Communist assault.

Communists and the protection
of Formosa, Indo-China and the
Philippines from possible further
Communist aggression. He said
again that he did. not want to
discuss the Soviet Union in any
way in this matter. His remarks
pointed up an obvious hope that
Russia will take advantage OF the
face-saving OUT left her by not
being directly Involved in the
Korean fighting so far.
This attitude was reflected yes
terday by a formal American re-
quest to the Soviet foreign Office
that it use its influence with
North Korea to stop the fighting.
Mr.. Acheson said today there has
been no reply to this request so
far.
He asked whether the develop
ments since Sunday mean that we
have moved from a cold to q hot
war with communism.
Complete Unity Stressed.
The Secretary said he could
not answer the question in that
way, adding that the facts of the
situation are plain-that is, that
the United Safes is employing it's
forces to support the United Ma
tions Security Council.
He emphasized at the outset of
his news conference that there
was complete unity among the
State and Defense departments
and other advisers of President
Truman regarding his decisions
yesterday.
The State and Defense depart
mentS, he said. have worked prac-
tically as one agency ever sincs
the Korean crisis arose. They
were able to present the President
with completed staff work very
quickly to guide him in the diff
cult decisions he had to make,
Mr.. Acheson added.
Complexities and difficulties of
the situation now are so great,
the Secretary said, that very
steady and sober thought and
action is necessary by all Amer
leans. He added that it is not a
time for speculation or trying to
stir up difficulties that do not
exist, and said the press and radio
share deep responsibility in this
connection.
Other Nations Must Decide.
Asked if he expected any more
than moral support from other
members of the United Nations,
Mr.. Acheson said that what they
do is for them to decide.
While stressing that the actions
in Korea are directly under u. N.
aegis, MIR. Acheson conceded that
the Presidents orders for prevent
ing Communist invasion of For
mosa and for reinforcing Indo-
China and the Philippines are in
a slightly different category.
He said the latter actions grow
out OF the Korean situation be-
cause it is perfectly plain that if
the United States does not act to
preserve peace and security in
those other areas of the Far East.
it soon viii be disturbed by fur
ther Communist moves.
The Secretary was asked what
prompted the President to call
for halt to Chinese Nationalist
attacks from Formosa against the
Communicated Chinese main
land as corollary of his orders to
the Navy to prevent any Com
muniSt attack on Formosa.
Truman. Symington to Confer.
He replied that obviously ii
would not make sense in trying to
restore peace and security to per-
NIT either group to attack the
other.
Meanwhile, top officials here

by helping to lift cur jeep out of
the mire and over q river levee.
We forded one river and paid q
Korean boatman $40 to pole rs
and our jeep across the Han River
in his homemade LIST. We had
as extra passenger-one COW
whose owner refused to let her
be pushed OF.
The river banks were crowded
with refugees-all headed south.
We crossed ut q point 10 miles up
river from where the Han River
bridge had blown up. Once on
the other side We drove over rice
paddy roads and potato patches
to reach this city. where the joint
American South Korean COM
mand has been set up.
Here we learned that practi-
cally all the territory north Of
Seoul is now in enemy hands,
with the prospect Of three South
Korean divisions being cut of.
The South Koreans are now
trying to establish a defense line
along the southern bank of the
Han. They have been told to
hold that line at all costs.
Flew to Kimpo.
We few from Japan into Kimpo
Airdrome about IL miles from
Seoul at 1892 last night. Ours was
the last American plane to land
at Kimpo and 1t stayed less than
10 minutes before taking of with
IS Americans evacuees. Kimpo
was in enemy hands less than six
hours later.
AS the plane took of an Ameri-
can officer was burning secret
documents.
There was plenty Of evidence of
the white mans departure in
cluding a couple of dozen new
American automobiles, some with
their keys still in the switches.
I selected a brand new Dodge

more-lined highway had Travelled
many times before. I remembered
how President Syngman Rhee had
those trees planted after his re-
public was born because he said
it was about time his country had
some trees.
We could hear the firing in
Seoul as we approached, but it
was distant. AS we entered the
city Koreans gathered to cheer as
we went by. felt like a symbol of
democracy. but a pretty frail one.
Koreans Fight Bravely.
In Seoul we found q small clus-
ter of tired. red-eyed American
officers who have been advising the
Koreans how to fight. All have
since made their way to Suwon.
The South Koreans have fought
bravely and well In most cases.
One entire battalion wilted before
one enemy tank. But on five diff
ferent occasions Korean soldiers
with dynamite strapped to their
chests hurled themselves in front
Of tanks to blow them up.
Three factors have accounted
for the defeat the South Koreans
have suffered so far:
The stunning surprise Of the
invasion. One wonders why Gen.
MacArthur's intelligence officers
didn't have some inkling OF 1t.
The enemy had tanks and our
side didn't have them because we
wouldn't give it any. Korea is not
tank terrain but the psychological
value would have been enormous.
The enemy had an air force and
our side didn't, because we
wouldn't give them one.

w. Stuart Symington, chairman of
the National Resources Security
Board. - .,,.
That board has the duty of pre-
pairing detailed plans for civilian
defense and industrial mobiliza-
tion in time of war.
Reports from the fighting front
in Korea were scanned eagerly by
Government officials but reactions
from the diplomatic and political
fronts were no less interesting to
the White House and State De-
partment.
MIR. Truman, Mr.. Acheson and
others were reported greatly
cheered by the speed with which
cold war Allies abroad and po-
litical leaders at home rallied in
the warlike atmosphere to support
the American action.
Both Parties Back Truman.
Officials said any hopes the
Soviet may have held that the
bold course would divide the Ma
ton and the free world must
have been dashed by the actual
developments.
At the Capitol, Republican and
Democratic leaders of Congress
alike praised the Chief Executives S
order.
In a dramatic demonstration of
bipartisan support for the Gov
ernment's course. Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey of New York wired Presi-
dent Truman that his unprece-
dented stand Should be supported
by a united America"
Mr.. Truman told Gov. Dewey,
his 1948 opponent. that this
pledge of support will be a source
Of inspiration and fortitude as we
grid ourselves for the difficult
task ahead"
Dewey Agrees on Course.
Gov. Dewey's message follows:
II wholeheartedly agree with
and support the difficult decision
you have made today to extend
American assistance to the Re-
public of Korea in combating
armed Communist aggression.
Your action there, in Formosa, the
Philippines. and in 1ndo-C China
was necessary to the security of
our country and the free world.
It should be supported by a United
America"
MIR. Truman replied:
Il am grateful for your mes
sage and hasten to assure you
that I shall find strength and
courage in your brave words.
1.-THE wholehearted pledge OF
support which you give will be q
source of inspiration and forti-
tude as we grid ourselves for the

taken our stand on the side o1
