This article focuses on the long step forward taken by the U.S. on the ideological battlefield by synchronizing their policy in Korea with the larger objectives of the United Nations. Going at last beyond mere lip service to the international organization, the U.S. has begun to act as if it really meant to make it what it has often proclaimed to be-the foundation-stone of American foreign policy. But even after the U.S. had taken the fateful decision to hoist the United Nations flag over General MacArthur's headquarter on-the-spot observers in Korea and in Washington wondered how apt the U.S. would prove at that most difficult warfare of all-the warfare of ideas.
