In the course of one brief visit, Syngman Rhee, the Korean President, called on the U.S. to join him in a war to drive the communists out of power in China. After his second or third outburst, even his most devoted U.S. Congressional supporters could not think up any more whole-hearted descriptions of him than redoubtable and dynamic. He is an honest fire-eater who surely believes every word he says, and will have no hesitation about going just as far as he can go without forcing the U.S. to wash its hands of him altogether.
