Needless to say in that part of the world the cold war is quite warm. There are a number of responsible people in the Republic of Korea who believe that once the Chinese Communists have liquidated the remaining resistance by the forces of the Republic of China to their regime that they will then move both Communist troops and equipment back into Manchuria and make them available to the North Korean Communists for an invasion against the Republic of Korea. For that reason these Koreans have taken a realistic view of the situation and have urged that the Republic of Korea move against the illegal Communist regime of North Korea and unify their. country before all of Asiatic communism can unite to destroy the last vestiges of freedom in Asia. This Government along with more moderate Koreans have constantly urged that no such action be taken because it might appear in the eyes of the world to be an act of aggression even though the North Korean regime has no standing except in the eyes of the Soviet Union and her satellites. It is difficult to be asked to stand and wait when every responsible Korean knows that should communism overwhelm the Republic of Korea wholesale liquidations would take place.
