Daily Worker Attacks Wallace as Betrayer Prompted by Korea War Stands
The Daily Worker denounces Henry A Wallace as a betrayer for denouncing the North Korean regime. It claims he betrayed the cause of peace and the trust of millions of people. United Nations officials estimate 30,000 to 40,000 troops may be mobilized from 15 to 20 member countries to oppose North Korean invaders. The figure arises from informal inquiries at Lake Success responding to Lie’s call for ground forces.
