This newspaper shows that North Korea invade South Korea. This headline signified the beginning of the Korean war, which began when North Korea invaded South Korea. Basically its showing North Korea invade South Korea to make South a Communist colony. After the war began, later on President Harry Truman committed U.S troops to help the U.N stifle communist North Korea. I learned that officially the war begin because North Korea invade South.

"The Korean War was three different conflicts from the perspective of the disparate groups who fought in it. For North and South Korea, the conflict was a civil war, a struggle with no possible compromise between two competing visions for Korea’s future. To the North was a coalition led by three dictators—Josef Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Kim Il-sung—devoted to creating a Communist Korea, a single-party state that controlled all economic assets and all aspects of the people’s lives. To the south, the Republic of Korea (ROK) had a Western-style constitution and Christian-capitalist orientation and the support of the United States and the United Nations. Within Asia the war was a regional conflict over the future security of two Chinas, one Communist and one Nationalist, and the containment of Japan, while for the United States and the Soviet Union, the war for Korea was a limited part of a post-1945 global competition for power"

Then North part wanted to be a Communist but South wanted to be a Republic so its caused War. This problems led Korean War. I learned that three dictators Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Kim II Sung wanted to make South a Communist but United States help South so the war started.
