A Clash of Interests Even before World War II ended the wartime alliance between the United States and

the Soviet Union had begun to show signs of strain President Roosevelt had hoped thata victory over the Axis and the creation of the United Nations would lead to a morepeaceful world Instead the United States and the Soviet Union became increasinglyhostile toward each other after the war This led to an era of confrontation and competi-tion between the United States and the Soviet Union that lasted from about 1946 to 1990This era became known as the Cold War

On April 23 1945 President Harry S Truman welcomed Soviet Foreign MinisterVyacheslav Molotov into the Oval Office of the White House Truman had been president forless than two weeks but he was determined to get tough with Molotov

Truman told the Soviet diplomat how disgusted he was with Moscowrsquos refusal to permitfree elections in Poland expressing his ldquodeep disappointmentrdquo that the Soviet Union was notcarrying out its agreements Bluntly he warned Molotov that Soviet defiance would seriouslyshake the confidence of the United States and Great Britain in their wartime ally

Molotov began to explain the Soviet position but Truman interrupted again and againrepeating his demand that Stalin ldquocarry out that agreement in accordance with his wordrdquoAstonished Molotov blurted out ldquoI have never been talked to like that in my liferdquo

ldquoCarry out your agreementsrdquo the president snapped back ldquoand you wonrsquot get talked tolike thatrdquo

Soviet Security Concerns Tensions between theUnited States and the Soviet Union began to increasebecause the two sides had different goals As the warended Soviet leaders became concerned about secu-rity Germany had invaded Russia twice in less than30 years The Soviets wanted to keep Germany weakand make sure that the countries between Germanyand the Soviet Union were under Soviet control

Although security concerns influenced their think-ing Soviet leaders were also Communists Theybelieved that communism was a superior economicsystem that would eventually replace capitalism andthat the Soviet Union should encourage communismin other nations Soviet leaders also accepted Leninrsquostheory that capitalist countries eventually would tryto destroy communism This made Soviet leaderssuspicious of capitalist nations

American Economic Concerns While Soviet lead-ers focused on securing their borders American lead-ers focused on economic problems Many Americanofficials believed that the Depression had causedWorld War II Without it Hitler would never havecome to power and Japan would not have wanted toexpand its empire

American advisers also thought the Depressionhad been overly severe because countries cut back ontrade They believed that when nations seal them-selves off economically it forces them to go to war toget the resources they need By 1945 PresidentRoosevelt and his advisers were convinced that economic growth was the keyto world peace They wantedto promote economic growthby increasing world trade

Similar reasoning convincedAmerican leaders to promotedemocracy and free enterpriseThey believed that democraticgovernment with protectionsfor peoplersquos rights made coun-tries more stable and peacefulThey also thought that the freeenterprise system with privateproperty rights and limitedgovernment intervention in theeconomy was the best route toprosperity

Describing Why did US leaderspromote both international tradeand free enterprise

The Yalta ConferenceIn February 1945 with the war in Europe almost

over Roosevelt Churchill and Stalin met at YaltamdashaSoviet resort on the Black Seamdashto plan the postwarworld Although the conference seemed to go wellseveral agreements reached at Yalta later played animportant role in causing the Cold War

Poland The first issue discussed at Yalta was whatto do about Poland Shortly after the Germansinvaded Poland the Polish government leaders hadfled to Britain In 1944 however Soviet troops droveback the Germans and entered Poland As they liber-ated Poland from German control the Sovietsencouraged Polish Communists to set up a new gov-ernment This meant there were now two govern-ments claiming the right to govern Poland oneCommunist and one non-Communist

President Roosevelt and Prime MinisterChurchill both argued that the Poles should be freeto choose their own government ldquoThis is what wewent to war against Germany forrdquo Churchillexplained ldquothat Poland should be free and sovereignrdquo

Stalin quickly responded to Churchillrsquos commentsAccording to Stalin the Polish government had to befriendly to the Soviet Union It was a matter of ldquolifeand deathrdquo Eventually the three leaders compro-mised Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to recognizethe Polish government set up by the Soviets Stalinagreed that the government would include members

of the prewar Polish government and that freeelections would be held as soon as possible

Declaration of Liberated Europe After reaching acompromise on Poland Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to issue the Declaration of LiberatedEurope The declaration asserted ldquothe right of allpeople to choose the form of government underwhich they will liverdquo

The Allies promised that the people of Europewould be allowed ldquoto create democratic institutionsof their own choicerdquo They also promised to createtemporary governments that represented ldquoall demo-cratic elementsrdquo and pledged ldquothe earliest possibleestablishment through free elections of governmentsresponsive to the will of the peoplerdquo

Dividing Germany After agreeing to a set of principles for liberating Europe the conferencefocused on Germany Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to divide Germany into four zonesGreat Britain the United States the Soviet Unionand France would each control one zone The same

four countries would also divide the city of Berlineven though it was in the Soviet zone

Although pleased with the decision to divideGermany Stalin also wanted to weaken the countryeconomically He demanded that Germany payheavy reparations for the war damage it causedRoosevelt agreed but he insisted reparations bebased on Germanyrsquos ability to pay He also sug-gested and Stalin agreed that Germany pay repara-tions with trade goods and products instead of cashThe Allies would also be allowed to remove indus-trial machinery railroad cars and other equipmentfrom Germany as reparations

This decision did not resolve the issue Over thenext few years arguments about reparations and eco-nomic policy in Germany increased tensions betweenthe United States and the Soviet Union These argu-ments became one of the major causes of the Cold War

Tensions Begin to Rise The Yalta decisions shapedthe expectations of the United States Two weeks afterYalta the Soviets pressured the King of Romania into

appointing a Communist govern-ment The United States accusedthe Soviets of violating the Dec-laration of Liberated Europe

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

Germanyrsquos industrial heartland and there was noway for the Soviets to get any reparations except bycooperating Nevertheless the Potsdam conferencemarked yet another increase in tensions between theSoviets and the Americans further paving the wayfor the Cold War

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

The United States kept formal diplomatic relationswith only the Nationalists in Taiwan It used its veto power in the UN Security Council to keeprepresentatives of the new Communist China out ofthe UN allowing the Nationalists to retain their seat

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

History teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasementbut begets new and bloodier war Like blackmail it lays thebasis for new and successively greater demands until as in black-mail violence becomes the only other alternative Why my sol-diers asked of me surrender military advantage to an enemy inthe field I could not answer

It was my constant effort to preserve them and end this savageconflict honorably and with the least loss of time and minimumsacrifice of life

I am closing 52 years of military service But I still remem-ber the refrain of one of the most popular barrack ballads of thatday which proclaimed most proudly thatmdash

As the Cold War began talks to reunify Korea brokedown A Communist Korean government was organ-ized in the north while an American-backed govern-ment controlled the south Both governments claimedauthority over all of Korea and border clashes werecommon The Soviet Union provided extensive mili-tary aid to the North Koreans who quickly built up alarge well-equipped army On June 25 1950 NorthKorean troops invaded into the south rapidly drivingback the poorly equipped South Korean forces

The UN Intervenes Truman saw the Communistinvasion of South Korea as a test of the containmentpolicy and ordered United States naval and airpower

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

May 1946

A Clash of Interests Even before World War II ended the wartime alliance between the United States and

the Soviet Union had begun to show signs of strain President Roosevelt had hoped thata victory over the Axis and the creation of the United Nations would lead to a morepeaceful world Instead the United States and the Soviet Union became increasinglyhostile toward each other after the war This led to an era of confrontation and competi-tion between the United States and the Soviet Union that lasted from about 1946 to 1990This era became known as the Cold War

On April 23 1945 President Harry S Truman welcomed Soviet Foreign MinisterVyacheslav Molotov into the Oval Office of the White House Truman had been president forless than two weeks but he was determined to get tough with Molotov

Truman told the Soviet diplomat how disgusted he was with Moscowrsquos refusal to permitfree elections in Poland expressing his ldquodeep disappointmentrdquo that the Soviet Union was notcarrying out its agreements Bluntly he warned Molotov that Soviet defiance would seriouslyshake the confidence of the United States and Great Britain in their wartime ally

Molotov began to explain the Soviet position but Truman interrupted again and againrepeating his demand that Stalin ldquocarry out that agreement in accordance with his wordrdquoAstonished Molotov blurted out ldquoI have never been talked to like that in my liferdquo

ldquoCarry out your agreementsrdquo the president snapped back ldquoand you wonrsquot get talked tolike thatrdquo

Soviet Security Concerns Tensions between theUnited States and the Soviet Union began to increasebecause the two sides had different goals As the warended Soviet leaders became concerned about secu-rity Germany had invaded Russia twice in less than30 years The Soviets wanted to keep Germany weakand make sure that the countries between Germanyand the Soviet Union were under Soviet control

Although security concerns influenced their think-ing Soviet leaders were also Communists Theybelieved that communism was a superior economicsystem that would eventually replace capitalism andthat the Soviet Union should encourage communismin other nations Soviet leaders also accepted Leninrsquostheory that capitalist countries eventually would tryto destroy communism This made Soviet leaderssuspicious of capitalist nations

American Economic Concerns While Soviet lead-ers focused on securing their borders American lead-ers focused on economic problems Many Americanofficials believed that the Depression had causedWorld War II Without it Hitler would never havecome to power and Japan would not have wanted toexpand its empire

American advisers also thought the Depressionhad been overly severe because countries cut back ontrade They believed that when nations seal them-selves off economically it forces them to go to war toget the resources they need By 1945 PresidentRoosevelt and his advisers were convinced that economic growth was the keyto world peace They wantedto promote economic growthby increasing world trade

Similar reasoning convincedAmerican leaders to promotedemocracy and free enterpriseThey believed that democraticgovernment with protectionsfor peoplersquos rights made coun-tries more stable and peacefulThey also thought that the freeenterprise system with privateproperty rights and limitedgovernment intervention in theeconomy was the best route toprosperity

Describing Why did US leaderspromote both international tradeand free enterprise

The Yalta ConferenceIn February 1945 with the war in Europe almost

over Roosevelt Churchill and Stalin met at YaltamdashaSoviet resort on the Black Seamdashto plan the postwarworld Although the conference seemed to go wellseveral agreements reached at Yalta later played animportant role in causing the Cold War

Poland The first issue discussed at Yalta was whatto do about Poland Shortly after the Germansinvaded Poland the Polish government leaders hadfled to Britain In 1944 however Soviet troops droveback the Germans and entered Poland As they liber-ated Poland from German control the Sovietsencouraged Polish Communists to set up a new gov-ernment This meant there were now two govern-ments claiming the right to govern Poland oneCommunist and one non-Communist

President Roosevelt and Prime MinisterChurchill both argued that the Poles should be freeto choose their own government ldquoThis is what wewent to war against Germany forrdquo Churchillexplained ldquothat Poland should be free and sovereignrdquo

Stalin quickly responded to Churchillrsquos commentsAccording to Stalin the Polish government had to befriendly to the Soviet Union It was a matter of ldquolifeand deathrdquo Eventually the three leaders compro-mised Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to recognizethe Polish government set up by the Soviets Stalinagreed that the government would include members

of the prewar Polish government and that freeelections would be held as soon as possible

Declaration of Liberated Europe After reaching acompromise on Poland Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to issue the Declaration of LiberatedEurope The declaration asserted ldquothe right of allpeople to choose the form of government underwhich they will liverdquo

The Allies promised that the people of Europewould be allowed ldquoto create democratic institutionsof their own choicerdquo They also promised to createtemporary governments that represented ldquoall demo-cratic elementsrdquo and pledged ldquothe earliest possibleestablishment through free elections of governmentsresponsive to the will of the peoplerdquo

Dividing Germany After agreeing to a set of principles for liberating Europe the conferencefocused on Germany Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to divide Germany into four zonesGreat Britain the United States the Soviet Unionand France would each control one zone The same

four countries would also divide the city of Berlineven though it was in the Soviet zone

Although pleased with the decision to divideGermany Stalin also wanted to weaken the countryeconomically He demanded that Germany payheavy reparations for the war damage it causedRoosevelt agreed but he insisted reparations bebased on Germanyrsquos ability to pay He also sug-gested and Stalin agreed that Germany pay repara-tions with trade goods and products instead of cashThe Allies would also be allowed to remove indus-trial machinery railroad cars and other equipmentfrom Germany as reparations

This decision did not resolve the issue Over thenext few years arguments about reparations and eco-nomic policy in Germany increased tensions betweenthe United States and the Soviet Union These argu-ments became one of the major causes of the Cold War

Tensions Begin to Rise The Yalta decisions shapedthe expectations of the United States Two weeks afterYalta the Soviets pressured the King of Romania into

appointing a Communist govern-ment The United States accusedthe Soviets of violating the Dec-laration of Liberated Europe

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

May 1946

A Clash of Interests Even before World War II ended the wartime alliance between the United States and

the Soviet Union had begun to show signs of strain President Roosevelt had hoped thata victory over the Axis and the creation of the United Nations would lead to a morepeaceful world Instead the United States and the Soviet Union became increasinglyhostile toward each other after the war This led to an era of confrontation and competi-tion between the United States and the Soviet Union that lasted from about 1946 to 1990This era became known as the Cold War

On April 23 1945 President Harry S Truman welcomed Soviet Foreign MinisterVyacheslav Molotov into the Oval Office of the White House Truman had been president forless than two weeks but he was determined to get tough with Molotov

Truman told the Soviet diplomat how disgusted he was with Moscowrsquos refusal to permitfree elections in Poland expressing his ldquodeep disappointmentrdquo that the Soviet Union was notcarrying out its agreements Bluntly he warned Molotov that Soviet defiance would seriouslyshake the confidence of the United States and Great Britain in their wartime ally

Molotov began to explain the Soviet position but Truman interrupted again and againrepeating his demand that Stalin ldquocarry out that agreement in accordance with his wordrdquoAstonished Molotov blurted out ldquoI have never been talked to like that in my liferdquo

ldquoCarry out your agreementsrdquo the president snapped back ldquoand you wonrsquot get talked tolike thatrdquo

Soviet Security Concerns Tensions between theUnited States and the Soviet Union began to increasebecause the two sides had different goals As the warended Soviet leaders became concerned about secu-rity Germany had invaded Russia twice in less than30 years The Soviets wanted to keep Germany weakand make sure that the countries between Germanyand the Soviet Union were under Soviet control

Although security concerns influenced their think-ing Soviet leaders were also Communists Theybelieved that communism was a superior economicsystem that would eventually replace capitalism andthat the Soviet Union should encourage communismin other nations Soviet leaders also accepted Leninrsquostheory that capitalist countries eventually would tryto destroy communism This made Soviet leaderssuspicious of capitalist nations

American Economic Concerns While Soviet lead-ers focused on securing their borders American lead-ers focused on economic problems Many Americanofficials believed that the Depression had causedWorld War II Without it Hitler would never havecome to power and Japan would not have wanted toexpand its empire

American advisers also thought the Depressionhad been overly severe because countries cut back ontrade They believed that when nations seal them-selves off economically it forces them to go to war toget the resources they need By 1945 PresidentRoosevelt and his advisers were convinced that economic growth was the keyto world peace They wantedto promote economic growthby increasing world trade

Similar reasoning convincedAmerican leaders to promotedemocracy and free enterpriseThey believed that democraticgovernment with protectionsfor peoplersquos rights made coun-tries more stable and peacefulThey also thought that the freeenterprise system with privateproperty rights and limitedgovernment intervention in theeconomy was the best route toprosperity

Describing Why did US leaderspromote both international tradeand free enterprise

The Yalta ConferenceIn February 1945 with the war in Europe almost

over Roosevelt Churchill and Stalin met at YaltamdashaSoviet resort on the Black Seamdashto plan the postwarworld Although the conference seemed to go wellseveral agreements reached at Yalta later played animportant role in causing the Cold War

Poland The first issue discussed at Yalta was whatto do about Poland Shortly after the Germansinvaded Poland the Polish government leaders hadfled to Britain In 1944 however Soviet troops droveback the Germans and entered Poland As they liber-ated Poland from German control the Sovietsencouraged Polish Communists to set up a new gov-ernment This meant there were now two govern-ments claiming the right to govern Poland oneCommunist and one non-Communist

President Roosevelt and Prime MinisterChurchill both argued that the Poles should be freeto choose their own government ldquoThis is what wewent to war against Germany forrdquo Churchillexplained ldquothat Poland should be free and sovereignrdquo

Stalin quickly responded to Churchillrsquos commentsAccording to Stalin the Polish government had to befriendly to the Soviet Union It was a matter of ldquolifeand deathrdquo Eventually the three leaders compro-mised Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to recognizethe Polish government set up by the Soviets Stalinagreed that the government would include members

of the prewar Polish government and that freeelections would be held as soon as possible

Declaration of Liberated Europe After reaching acompromise on Poland Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to issue the Declaration of LiberatedEurope The declaration asserted ldquothe right of allpeople to choose the form of government underwhich they will liverdquo

The Allies promised that the people of Europewould be allowed ldquoto create democratic institutionsof their own choicerdquo They also promised to createtemporary governments that represented ldquoall demo-cratic elementsrdquo and pledged ldquothe earliest possibleestablishment through free elections of governmentsresponsive to the will of the peoplerdquo

Dividing Germany After agreeing to a set of principles for liberating Europe the conferencefocused on Germany Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to divide Germany into four zonesGreat Britain the United States the Soviet Unionand France would each control one zone The same

four countries would also divide the city of Berlineven though it was in the Soviet zone

Although pleased with the decision to divideGermany Stalin also wanted to weaken the countryeconomically He demanded that Germany payheavy reparations for the war damage it causedRoosevelt agreed but he insisted reparations bebased on Germanyrsquos ability to pay He also sug-gested and Stalin agreed that Germany pay repara-tions with trade goods and products instead of cashThe Allies would also be allowed to remove indus-trial machinery railroad cars and other equipmentfrom Germany as reparations

This decision did not resolve the issue Over thenext few years arguments about reparations and eco-nomic policy in Germany increased tensions betweenthe United States and the Soviet Union These argu-ments became one of the major causes of the Cold War

Tensions Begin to Rise The Yalta decisions shapedthe expectations of the United States Two weeks afterYalta the Soviets pressured the King of Romania into

appointing a Communist govern-ment The United States accusedthe Soviets of violating the Dec-laration of Liberated Europe

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

Germanyrsquos industrial heartland and there was noway for the Soviets to get any reparations except bycooperating Nevertheless the Potsdam conferencemarked yet another increase in tensions between theSoviets and the Americans further paving the wayfor the Cold War

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Soviet Security Concerns Tensions between theUnited States and the Soviet Union began to increasebecause the two sides had different goals As the warended Soviet leaders became concerned about secu-rity Germany had invaded Russia twice in less than30 years The Soviets wanted to keep Germany weakand make sure that the countries between Germanyand the Soviet Union were under Soviet control

Although security concerns influenced their think-ing Soviet leaders were also Communists Theybelieved that communism was a superior economicsystem that would eventually replace capitalism andthat the Soviet Union should encourage communismin other nations Soviet leaders also accepted Leninrsquostheory that capitalist countries eventually would tryto destroy communism This made Soviet leaderssuspicious of capitalist nations

American Economic Concerns While Soviet lead-ers focused on securing their borders American lead-ers focused on economic problems Many Americanofficials believed that the Depression had causedWorld War II Without it Hitler would never havecome to power and Japan would not have wanted toexpand its empire

American advisers also thought the Depressionhad been overly severe because countries cut back ontrade They believed that when nations seal them-selves off economically it forces them to go to war toget the resources they need By 1945 PresidentRoosevelt and his advisers were convinced that economic growth was the keyto world peace They wantedto promote economic growthby increasing world trade

Similar reasoning convincedAmerican leaders to promotedemocracy and free enterpriseThey believed that democraticgovernment with protectionsfor peoplersquos rights made coun-tries more stable and peacefulThey also thought that the freeenterprise system with privateproperty rights and limitedgovernment intervention in theeconomy was the best route toprosperity

The Yalta ConferenceIn February 1945 with the war in Europe almost

over Roosevelt Churchill and Stalin met at YaltamdashaSoviet resort on the Black Seamdashto plan the postwarworld Although the conference seemed to go wellseveral agreements reached at Yalta later played animportant role in causing the Cold War

Poland The first issue discussed at Yalta was whatto do about Poland Shortly after the Germansinvaded Poland the Polish government leaders hadfled to Britain In 1944 however Soviet troops droveback the Germans and entered Poland As they liber-ated Poland from German control the Sovietsencouraged Polish Communists to set up a new gov-ernment This meant there were now two govern-ments claiming the right to govern Poland oneCommunist and one non-Communist

President Roosevelt and Prime MinisterChurchill both argued that the Poles should be freeto choose their own government ldquoThis is what wewent to war against Germany forrdquo Churchillexplained ldquothat Poland should be free and sovereignrdquo

Stalin quickly responded to Churchillrsquos commentsAccording to Stalin the Polish government had to befriendly to the Soviet Union It was a matter of ldquolifeand deathrdquo Eventually the three leaders compro-mised Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to recognizethe Polish government set up by the Soviets Stalinagreed that the government would include members

Declaration of Liberated Europe After reaching acompromise on Poland Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to issue the Declaration of LiberatedEurope The declaration asserted ldquothe right of allpeople to choose the form of government underwhich they will liverdquo

The Allies promised that the people of Europewould be allowed ldquoto create democratic institutionsof their own choicerdquo They also promised to createtemporary governments that represented ldquoall demo-cratic elementsrdquo and pledged ldquothe earliest possibleestablishment through free elections of governmentsresponsive to the will of the peoplerdquo

Dividing Germany After agreeing to a set of principles for liberating Europe the conferencefocused on Germany Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to divide Germany into four zonesGreat Britain the United States the Soviet Unionand France would each control one zone The same

Although pleased with the decision to divideGermany Stalin also wanted to weaken the countryeconomically He demanded that Germany payheavy reparations for the war damage it causedRoosevelt agreed but he insisted reparations bebased on Germanyrsquos ability to pay He also sug-gested and Stalin agreed that Germany pay repara-tions with trade goods and products instead of cashThe Allies would also be allowed to remove indus-trial machinery railroad cars and other equipmentfrom Germany as reparations

This decision did not resolve the issue Over thenext few years arguments about reparations and eco-nomic policy in Germany increased tensions betweenthe United States and the Soviet Union These argu-ments became one of the major causes of the Cold War

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

Germanyrsquos industrial heartland and there was noway for the Soviets to get any reparations except bycooperating Nevertheless the Potsdam conferencemarked yet another increase in tensions between theSoviets and the Americans further paving the wayfor the Cold War

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

In the 1940s Ruth Goldberg belonged to the Parent-Teacher Association in Queens NewYork In 1947 she agreed to run for PTA president but the campaign turned nasty BecauseGoldberg had associated with people with left-wing interests a rumor spread through theneighborhood that she was a Communist Suddenly Goldbergrsquos quiet life became terrifyingCallers threatened her and the local priest denounced her in his sermons One afternoonGoldbergrsquos eight-year-old son came home in tears A playmate had told him ldquoYou knowyour motherrsquos a Red She should be put up against a wall and shotrdquo

Looking back much later Goldberg saw the PTA campaign as part of a bigger and morecomplex pattern of distrust and hatred ldquoIt was a small thing but it was an indication of whathad happened with the Cold War with this Red spectermdashthat somebody like me could be adanger to a communityrdquo

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Page 5: The Cold War Begins€¦ · Causes of Cold War Soviet Union Western Allies General Goals In Europe In the Middle East In Asia At Home The Cold War • To create a protective sphere

of the prewar Polish government and that freeelections would be held as soon as possible

Declaration of Liberated Europe After reaching acompromise on Poland Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to issue the Declaration of LiberatedEurope The declaration asserted ldquothe right of allpeople to choose the form of government underwhich they will liverdquo

The Allies promised that the people of Europewould be allowed ldquoto create democratic institutionsof their own choicerdquo They also promised to createtemporary governments that represented ldquoall demo-cratic elementsrdquo and pledged ldquothe earliest possibleestablishment through free elections of governmentsresponsive to the will of the peoplerdquo

Dividing Germany After agreeing to a set of principles for liberating Europe the conferencefocused on Germany Roosevelt Churchill andStalin agreed to divide Germany into four zonesGreat Britain the United States the Soviet Unionand France would each control one zone The same

four countries would also divide the city of Berlineven though it was in the Soviet zone

Although pleased with the decision to divideGermany Stalin also wanted to weaken the countryeconomically He demanded that Germany payheavy reparations for the war damage it causedRoosevelt agreed but he insisted reparations bebased on Germanyrsquos ability to pay He also sug-gested and Stalin agreed that Germany pay repara-tions with trade goods and products instead of cashThe Allies would also be allowed to remove indus-trial machinery railroad cars and other equipmentfrom Germany as reparations

This decision did not resolve the issue Over thenext few years arguments about reparations and eco-nomic policy in Germany increased tensions betweenthe United States and the Soviet Union These argu-ments became one of the major causes of the Cold War

Tensions Begin to Rise The Yalta decisions shapedthe expectations of the United States Two weeks afterYalta the Soviets pressured the King of Romania into

appointing a Communist govern-ment The United States accusedthe Soviets of violating the Dec-laration of Liberated Europe

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

Germanyrsquos industrial heartland and there was noway for the Soviets to get any reparations except bycooperating Nevertheless the Potsdam conferencemarked yet another increase in tensions between theSoviets and the Americans further paving the wayfor the Cold War

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

appointing a Communist govern-ment The United States accusedthe Soviets of violating the Dec-laration of Liberated Europe

Soon afterward the Sovietsrefused to allow more than threenon-Communist Poles to serve inthe 18-member Polish govern-ment There was also no indicationthat they intended to hold freeelections in Poland as promisedOn April 1 President Rooseveltinformed the Soviets that theiractions in Poland were not accept-able Eleven days later withSoviet-American relations deterio-rating President Roosevelt diedand Vice President Harry Trumantook office

IdentifyingWhat did the Allies decide at Yalta

Truman Takes ControlAlthough inexperienced in diplomacy Truman

already had his own views about how to deal withthe Soviets Truman was strongly anticommunist andsuspicious of Stalin He believed World War II hadbegun because Britain had tried to appease Hitler Hewas determined not to make the same mistake withStalin ldquoWe must stand up to the Russiansrdquo he toldSecretary of State Edward Stettinius the day aftertaking office

Ten days later Truman did exactly that duringhis meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister MolotovTruman immediately brought up the issue ofPoland and demanded that Stalin hold free elec-tions as he promised at Yalta Molotov took theunexpectedly strong message back to Stalin Themeeting marked an important shift in Soviet-American relations and set the stage for furtherconfrontations

The Potsdam Conference In July 1945 with thewar against Japan still raging Truman finally metStalin at Potsdam near Berlin Both men had come toPotsdam primarily to work out a deal on Germany

Truman was now convinced that German industrywas critical Unless Germanyrsquos economy wasallowed to revive the rest of Europe would neverrecover and the German people might turn to com-munism out of desperation

Stalin and his advisers were equally convincedthat they needed reparations from Germany The warhad devastated their economy Soviet troops hadbegun stripping their zone in Germany of its machin-ery and industrial equipment for use back home butStalin wanted Germany to pay much more

At the conference Truman took a firm standagainst heavy reparations He insisted thatGermanyrsquos industry had to be allowed to recoverTruman suggested that the Soviets take reparationsfrom their zone while the Allies allowed industry torevive in the other zones Stalin opposed this ideasince the Soviet zone was mostly agricultural Itcould not provide all of the reparations the Sovietswanted

To get the Soviets to accept the deal Trumanoffered Stalin a small amount of German industrialequipment from the other zones but required theSoviets to pay for part of it with food shipments fromtheir zone He also offered to accept the newGerman-Polish border the Soviets had established

Stalin did not like Trumanrsquos proposal At PotsdamTruman learned that the atomic bomb had been suc-cessfully tested and he told Stalin about the testStalin suspected Truman was trying to bully him intoa deal and that the Americans were trying to limitreparations to keep the Soviets weak

Despite his suspicions Stalin had to accept the deal American and British troops controlled

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Germanyrsquos industrial heartland and there was noway for the Soviets to get any reparations except bycooperating Nevertheless the Potsdam conferencemarked yet another increase in tensions between theSoviets and the Americans further paving the wayfor the Cold War

The Iron Curtain Descends Although Truman hadwon the argument over reparations he had less suc-cess on other issues at Potsdam The Soviets refusedto make any stronger commitments to uphold the

Declaration of Liberated Europe The presence of theSoviet army in Eastern Europe ensured that eventu-ally pro-Soviet Communist governments would beestablished in Poland Romania Bulgaria Hungaryand Czechoslovakia ldquoThis war is not as in the pastrdquoStalin commented ldquoWhoever occupies a territoryalso imposes his own social system It cannot beotherwiserdquo

The Communist countries of Eastern Europe cameto be called satellite nations Although not underdirect Soviet control they had to remain Communistand friendly to the Soviet Union They also had tofollow policies that the Soviets approved

As he watched the Communist takeover in EasternEurope Winston Churchill coined a phrase todescribe what had happened On March 5 1946 in aspeech delivered in Fulton Missouri Churchill said

ldquoFrom Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatican iron curtain has descended across the continentBehind that line lie all the capitals of the ancientstates of central and Eastern Europe All are sub-ject in one form or another not only to Soviet influ-ence but to a very high and increasing measure ofcontrol from Moscowrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

History teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasementbut begets new and bloodier war Like blackmail it lays thebasis for new and successively greater demands until as in black-mail violence becomes the only other alternative Why my sol-diers asked of me surrender military advantage to an enemy inthe field I could not answer

It was my constant effort to preserve them and end this savageconflict honorably and with the least loss of time and minimumsacrifice of life

I am closing 52 years of military service But I still remem-ber the refrain of one of the most popular barrack ballads of thatday which proclaimed most proudly thatmdash

ldquoOld soldiers never die they just fade awayrdquo And like the oldsoldier of that ballad I now close my military career and just fadeawaymdashan old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave himthe light to see that duty Good-by

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Containing CommunismThe early Cold War shaped the politics and economics of many parts of the world

especially Europe The airlift of supplies to Berlin like Halvorsenrsquos own candy airliftreassured Europeans that the United States would help them rebuild their lives even inthe shadow of growing Soviet hostility

Air Force lieutenant Gail Halvorsen was one of the pilots who airlifted supplies into Berlinin 1948 On one of his days off he was shooting a home movie outside Berlinrsquos TempelhofAirport and soon drew a crowd of curious boys and girls As a wartime pilot Halvorsen hadmet children in other cities They would playfully confront American soldiers asking ldquoAnygum chumrdquo While digging into his pockets for gum Halvorsen had an idea He said that ifthe children would wait at the end of the runway the next day he would drop candy fromhis airplane

The next day eager children gathered at the airport As Halvorsenrsquos plane flew over-head three small white parachutes floated down with a payload of candy Halvorsenrsquosldquochocolate bombsrdquo became a routine earning him the nickname Schokoladenflieger (ldquochocolate-flyerrdquo) Other pilots joined in and by the end of the airlift American pilots haddropped 250000 candy parachutes for the children of Berlin

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

The Berlin Airlift The decision to create WestGermany convinced the Soviets that they wouldnever get the reparations they wanted In late June1948 Soviet troops cut all road and rail traffic to WestBerlin The blockade provoked a crisis PresidentTruman sent long-range bombers with atomicweapons to bases in Britain General Lucius Clay theAmerican commander in Germany warned of whatmight happen ldquoIf we mean to hold Europe againstcommunism then we must not budgerdquo he said

The challenge was to keep West Berlin alivewithout provoking war with the Soviets In June1948 Truman ordered the Berlin airlift to beginFor 11 months cargo planes supplied Berlinerswith food medicine and coal The airlift continuedthrough the spring of 1949 bringing in over 2 million tons of supplies Stalin finally lifted theblockade on May 12 The Berlin airlift symbolizedAmerican determination to stand by Berlin

NATO The Berlin blockade convinced many Amer-icans that the Soviets were bent on conquest Thepublic began to support a military alliance withWestern Europe By April 1949 an agreement had beenreached to create the North Atlantic Treaty Organ-ization (NATO)mdasha mutual defense alliance

NATO initially included 12 countries the UnitedStates Canada Britain France Italy Belgium DenmarkPortugal the Netherlands Norway Luxembourg and

Iceland NATO members agreed to come tothe aid of any member who was attackedFor the first time in its history the UnitedStates had committed itself to maintainingpeace in Europe Six years later NATOallowed West Germany to rearm and join itsorganization This decision alarmed Sovietleaders They responded by organizing amilitary alliance in Eastern Europe whichbecame known as the Warsaw Pact TheUnited States also created other regionalalliances The Organization of AmericanStates (OAS) started in 1948 and the South-east Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO)formed in 1954

Evaluating What

triggered the beginning of the Berlin airlift

The Cold War Spreads toEast Asia

The Cold War eventually spread beyondEurope Conflicts also emerged in Asia

where events in China and Korea brought about anew attitude toward Japan

Civil War and Revolution in China In ChinaCommunist forces led by Mao Zedong had beenstruggling against the Nationalist government led byChiang Kai-shek since the late 1920s During WorldWar II the two sides suspended their war to resistJapanese occupation With the end of World War IIhowever civil war broke out again Although Maomade great gains neither side could win and neitherwould accept a compromise

To prevent a Communist revolution in Asia theUnited States sent the Nationalist government $2 bil-lion in aid beginning in the mid-1940s but it squan-dered this advantage with poor military planning andcorruption By 1949 the Communists had capturedthe Chinese capital of Beijing and moved southwardwhile support for the Nationalists declined

In August 1949 the State Department discontin-ued aid to the Chinese Nationalists The defeatedNationalists then fled the Chinese mainland for thesmall island of Taiwan (Formosa) The victoriousCommunists established the Peoplersquos Republic ofChina in October 1949

The Berlin Airlift The decision to create WestGermany convinced the Soviets that they wouldnever get the reparations they wanted In late June1948 Soviet troops cut all road and rail traffic to WestBerlin The blockade provoked a crisis PresidentTruman sent long-range bombers with atomicweapons to bases in Britain General Lucius Clay theAmerican commander in Germany warned of whatmight happen ldquoIf we mean to hold Europe againstcommunism then we must not budgerdquo he said

The challenge was to keep West Berlin alivewithout provoking war with the Soviets In June1948 Truman ordered the Berlin airlift to beginFor 11 months cargo planes supplied Berlinerswith food medicine and coal The airlift continuedthrough the spring of 1949 bringing in over 2 million tons of supplies Stalin finally lifted theblockade on May 12 The Berlin airlift symbolizedAmerican determination to stand by Berlin

NATO The Berlin blockade convinced many Amer-icans that the Soviets were bent on conquest Thepublic began to support a military alliance withWestern Europe By April 1949 an agreement had beenreached to create the North Atlantic Treaty Organ-ization (NATO)mdasha mutual defense alliance

NATO initially included 12 countries the UnitedStates Canada Britain France Italy Belgium DenmarkPortugal the Netherlands Norway Luxembourg and

Iceland NATO members agreed to come tothe aid of any member who was attackedFor the first time in its history the UnitedStates had committed itself to maintainingpeace in Europe Six years later NATOallowed West Germany to rearm and join itsorganization This decision alarmed Sovietleaders They responded by organizing amilitary alliance in Eastern Europe whichbecame known as the Warsaw Pact TheUnited States also created other regionalalliances The Organization of AmericanStates (OAS) started in 1948 and the South-east Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO)formed in 1954

Evaluating What

triggered the beginning of the Berlin airlift

The Cold War Spreads toEast Asia

The Cold War eventually spread beyondEurope Conflicts also emerged in Asia

where events in China and Korea brought about anew attitude toward Japan

Civil War and Revolution in China In ChinaCommunist forces led by Mao Zedong had beenstruggling against the Nationalist government led byChiang Kai-shek since the late 1920s During WorldWar II the two sides suspended their war to resistJapanese occupation With the end of World War IIhowever civil war broke out again Although Maomade great gains neither side could win and neitherwould accept a compromise

To prevent a Communist revolution in Asia theUnited States sent the Nationalist government $2 bil-lion in aid beginning in the mid-1940s but it squan-dered this advantage with poor military planning andcorruption By 1949 the Communists had capturedthe Chinese capital of Beijing and moved southwardwhile support for the Nationalists declined

In August 1949 the State Department discontin-ued aid to the Chinese Nationalists The defeatedNationalists then fled the Chinese mainland for thesmall island of Taiwan (Formosa) The victoriousCommunists established the Peoplersquos Republic ofChina in October 1949

The United States kept formal diplomatic relationswith only the Nationalists in Taiwan It used its veto power in the UN Security Council to keeprepresentatives of the new Communist China out ofthe UN allowing the Nationalists to retain their seat

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

The downing of Powersrsquos plane set off one of the major confrontations of the Cold Warduring the presidency of Dwight D Eisenhower

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Page 9: The Cold War Begins€¦ · Causes of Cold War Soviet Union Western Allies General Goals In Europe In the Middle East In Asia At Home The Cold War • To create a protective sphere

Despite the growing tensions between the SovietUnion and the United States many American offi-cials continued to believe cooperation with theSoviets was possible In late 1945 the foreign minis-ters of the former wartime Allies met first inLondon then in Moscow to discuss the future ofEurope and Asia

Although Ernest Bevin the British foreign minis-ter and James Byrnes the American secretary ofstate pushed the Soviets to hold free elections inEastern Europe the Soviets refused to budge ldquoOurrelations with the Russiansrdquo Bevin gloomily con-cluded ldquoare drifting into the same condition as thatin which we had found ourselves with Hitlerrdquo

The Long Telegram Increasingly exasperated bythe Sovietsrsquo refusal to cooperate officials at the StateDepartment asked the American Embassy inMoscow to explain Soviet behavior On February 221946 diplomat George Kennan responded withwhat came to be known as the Long Telegram a5540-word cable message explaining his views ofSoviet goals

According to Kennan the Sovietsrsquo view of theworld came from a traditional ldquoRussian sense of inse-curityrdquo and fear of the West intensified by theCommunist ideas of Lenin and Stalin BecauseCommunists believed that they were in a long-termhistorical struggle against capitalism Kennanargued it was impossible to reach any permanentsettlement with them

Kennan therefore proposed what became the basicAmerican policy throughout the Cold War ldquoa long-term patient but firm and vigilant containment of

Russian expansive tendenciesrdquo Kennan explainedthat in his opinion the Soviet system had severalmajor economic and political weaknesses If theUnited States could keep the Soviets from expandingtheir power it was only a matter of time until theSoviet system would fall apart Communism couldbe beaten without going to war The Long Telegramcirculated widely in Trumanrsquos administration It gaverise to the policy of containmentmdashkeeping commu-nism within its present territory through the use ofdiplomatic economic and military actions

Crisis in Iran While Trumanrsquos administration dis-cussed Kennanrsquos ideas a series of crises erupted inthe spring and summer of 1946 These crises seemedto prove that Kennan was right about the SovietsThe first crisis began in Iran in March 1946

During World War II the United States had puttroops in southern Iran while Soviet troops occupiednorthern Iran to secure a supply line from the PersianGulf After the war instead of withdrawing as prom-ised the Soviet troops remained in northern IranStalin then began demanding access to Iranrsquos oil sup-plies To increase the pressure Soviet troops helpedlocal Communists in northern Iran establish a sepa-rate government

To American officials these actions signaled a Sovietpush into the Middle East Secretary of State JamesByrnes sent Moscow a strong message demanding thatthey withdraw At the same time the battleship USSMissouri sailed into the eastern Mediterranean Thepressure seemed to work Soviet forces withdrew hav-ing been promised a joint Soviet-Iranian oil companyThe Iranian parliament later rejected the plan

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

ECONOMICS

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

At the same time these fears were hauntingAmericans the country was enjoying postwar pros-perity and optimism That spirit combined withMcCarthyism witch hunts fears of Communist infil-tration and the threat of atomic attack made theearly 1950s a time of contrasts As the 1952 electionapproached Americans were looking for someone orsomething that would make them feel secure

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Page 10: The Cold War Begins€¦ · Causes of Cold War Soviet Union Western Allies General Goals In Europe In the Middle East In Asia At Home The Cold War • To create a protective sphere

The Truman Doctrine Frustrated in Iran Stalinturned to Turkey There the straits of the Dardanelleswere a vital route from Soviet Black Sea ports to theMediterranean For centuries Russia had wanted tocontrol this strategic route In August 1946 Stalindemanded joint control of the Dardanelles withTurkey Presidential adviser Dean Acheson saw thismove as the first step in a Soviet plan to control theMideast and he advised Truman to make a show offorce The president declared ldquoWe might as well findout whether the Russians are bent on world con-questrdquo He then ordered the new aircraft carrierFranklin D Roosevelt to join the Missouri in protectingTurkey and the eastern Mediterranean

While the United States supported Turkey Britaintried to help Greece In August 1946 GreekCommunists launched a guerrilla war against theGreek government For about six months Britishtroops helped the Greeks fight the guerrillas Theeffort strained Britainrsquos economy which was stillweak from World War II In February 1947 Britaininformed the United States that it could no longerafford to help Greece

On March 12 1947 Truman went before Congressto ask for $400 million to fight Communist aggres-sion in Greece and Turkey His speech outlined a pol-icy which became known as the Truman Doctrine Itsgoal was to aid ldquofree peoples who are resistingattempted subjugation by armed minorities or byoutside pressuresrdquo Its immediate effects were to sta-bilize the Greek government and ease Sovietdemands in Turkey In the long run it pledged theUnited States to fight communism worldwide (See page 1076 for more on the Truman Doctrine)

The Marshall Plan Meanwhile postwar WesternEurope faced grave problems Economies were inruin people were near starvation and political chaoswas at hand The terrible winterof 1946 made things worse

In June 1947 Secretary ofState George C Marshallproposed the EuropeanRecovery Program orMarshall Plan whichwould give Europeannations American aid torebuild their economiesTruman saw the MarshallPlan and the TrumanDoctrine as ldquotwo halves of thesame walnutrdquo both essential

for containment Marshall offered help to all nationsplanning a recovery program

ldquoOur policy is not directed against any country ordoctrine but against hunger poverty desperationand chaos Its purpose should be the revival of aworking economy in the world so as to permit theemergence of political and social conditions in whichfree institutions can exist rdquo

mdashquoted in Marshall A Hero for Our Times

The Soviet Union and its satellite nations inEastern Europe rejected the offer Instead theSoviets developed their own economic programThis action further separated Europe into compet-ing regions The Marshall Plan pumped billions ofdollars worth of supplies machinery and food intoWestern Europe Western Europersquos recovery weak-ened the appeal of communism and opened newmarkets for trade

Summarizing What were the goalsof the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan

The Berlin CrisisThe Marshall Plan was only one part of the

American strategy for rebuilding Europe PresidentTruman and his advisers believed that WesternEuropersquos prosperity depended on Germanyrsquosrecovery The Soviets however still wantedGermany to pay reparations to the Soviet UnionEventually the dispute over Germany brought theUnited States and the Soviet Union to the brink of war

West Germany Is Founded By early 1948 US offi-cials had concluded that the Soviets were deliber-ately trying to undermine Germanyrsquos economy Inresponse the United States Great Britain and Franceannounced that they were merging their zones inGermany and allowing the Germans to have theirown government They also agreed to merge theirzones in Berlin and to make West Berlin part of thenew German republic

The new nation was officially called the FederalRepublic of Germany but it became known as WestGermany West Germanyrsquos economy was completelyseparate from the Soviet zone which eventuallybecame known as East Germany West Germany wasnot allowed to have a military but in most respects itwas independent

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

NATO The Berlin blockade convinced many Amer-icans that the Soviets were bent on conquest Thepublic began to support a military alliance withWestern Europe By April 1949 an agreement had beenreached to create the North Atlantic Treaty Organ-ization (NATO)mdasha mutual defense alliance

NATO initially included 12 countries the UnitedStates Canada Britain France Italy Belgium DenmarkPortugal the Netherlands Norway Luxembourg and

Iceland NATO members agreed to come tothe aid of any member who was attackedFor the first time in its history the UnitedStates had committed itself to maintainingpeace in Europe Six years later NATOallowed West Germany to rearm and join itsorganization This decision alarmed Sovietleaders They responded by organizing amilitary alliance in Eastern Europe whichbecame known as the Warsaw Pact TheUnited States also created other regionalalliances The Organization of AmericanStates (OAS) started in 1948 and the South-east Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO)formed in 1954

The Cold War eventually spread beyondEurope Conflicts also emerged in Asia

where events in China and Korea brought about anew attitude toward Japan

Civil War and Revolution in China In ChinaCommunist forces led by Mao Zedong had beenstruggling against the Nationalist government led byChiang Kai-shek since the late 1920s During WorldWar II the two sides suspended their war to resistJapanese occupation With the end of World War IIhowever civil war broke out again Although Maomade great gains neither side could win and neitherwould accept a compromise

To prevent a Communist revolution in Asia theUnited States sent the Nationalist government $2 bil-lion in aid beginning in the mid-1940s but it squan-dered this advantage with poor military planning andcorruption By 1949 the Communists had capturedthe Chinese capital of Beijing and moved southwardwhile support for the Nationalists declined

In August 1949 the State Department discontin-ued aid to the Chinese Nationalists The defeatedNationalists then fled the Chinese mainland for thesmall island of Taiwan (Formosa) The victoriousCommunists established the Peoplersquos Republic ofChina in October 1949

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

The downing of Powersrsquos plane set off one of the major confrontations of the Cold Warduring the presidency of Dwight D Eisenhower

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

The United States kept formal diplomatic relationswith only the Nationalists in Taiwan It used its veto power in the UN Security Council to keeprepresentatives of the new Communist China out ofthe UN allowing the Nationalists to retain their seat

The Chinese revolution brought about a signifi-cant change in American policy toward Japan At theend of World War II General Douglas MacArthurhad taken charge of occupied Japan His missionwas to introduce democracy and keep Japan from

threatening war again Once the United States lostChina as its chief ally in Asia it adopted policies toencourage the rapid recovery of Japanrsquos industrialeconomy Just as the United States viewed WestGermany as the key to defending all of Europeagainst communism it saw Japan as the key todefending Asia

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

788 CHAPTER 26 The Cold War Begins

GeneralDouglas MacArthuraddresses Congress April 19 1951

History teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasementbut begets new and bloodier war Like blackmail it lays thebasis for new and successively greater demands until as in black-mail violence becomes the only other alternative Why my sol-diers asked of me surrender military advantage to an enemy inthe field I could not answer

It was my constant effort to preserve them and end this savageconflict honorably and with the least loss of time and minimumsacrifice of life

I am closing 52 years of military service But I still remem-ber the refrain of one of the most popular barrack ballads of thatday which proclaimed most proudly thatmdash

ldquoOld soldiers never die they just fade awayrdquo And like the oldsoldier of that ballad I now close my military career and just fadeawaymdashan old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave himthe light to see that duty Good-by

As the Cold War began talks to reunify Korea brokedown A Communist Korean government was organ-ized in the north while an American-backed govern-ment controlled the south Both governments claimedauthority over all of Korea and border clashes werecommon The Soviet Union provided extensive mili-tary aid to the North Koreans who quickly built up alarge well-equipped army On June 25 1950 NorthKorean troops invaded into the south rapidly drivingback the poorly equipped South Korean forces

The UN Intervenes Truman saw the Communistinvasion of South Korea as a test of the containmentpolicy and ordered United States naval and airpower

into action He then called on the United Nations to actTruman succeeded because the Soviet delegate wasboycotting the Security Council over its China policyand was not present to veto the American proposalWith the pledge of UN troops Truman orderedGeneral MacArthur to send American troops fromJapan to the Korean peninsula

The American and South Korean troops weredriven back into a small pocket of territory near theport of Pusan Inside the ldquoPusan perimeterrdquo as itcame to be called the troops stubbornly resisted theNorth Korean onslaught buying time for MacArthurto organize reinforcements

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

In the 1940s Ruth Goldberg belonged to the Parent-Teacher Association in Queens NewYork In 1947 she agreed to run for PTA president but the campaign turned nasty BecauseGoldberg had associated with people with left-wing interests a rumor spread through theneighborhood that she was a Communist Suddenly Goldbergrsquos quiet life became terrifyingCallers threatened her and the local priest denounced her in his sermons One afternoonGoldbergrsquos eight-year-old son came home in tears A playmate had told him ldquoYou knowyour motherrsquos a Red She should be put up against a wall and shotrdquo

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Should the War in Korea Be Expanded

A controversy between President Harry S Truman andGeneral Douglas MacArthur began shortly after the outbreakof the Korean War It reached a climax when the presidentrelieved MacArthur of his command Truman believed in alimited war in Korea while MacArthur wanted total victory

President Harry S Truman defends limited war

The Kremlin [Soviet Union] is trying and has beentrying for a long time to drive a wedge between us andthe other nations It wants to see us isolated It wants tosee us distrusted It wants to see us feared and hated byour allies Our allies agree with us in the course we arefollowing They do not believe that we should take theinitiative to widen the conflict in the Far East If theUnited States were to widen the conflict we might wellhave to go it alone

If we go it alone in Asia we may destroy the unity ofthe free nations against aggression Our European alliesare nearer to Russia than we are They are in far greaterdanger Going it alone brought the world to the dis-aster of World War II

I do not propose to strip this country of its allies inthe face of Soviet danger The path of collective securityis our only sure defense against the dangers thatthreaten us

GeneralDouglas MacArthuraddresses Congress April 19 1951

History teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasementbut begets new and bloodier war Like blackmail it lays thebasis for new and successively greater demands until as in black-mail violence becomes the only other alternative Why my sol-diers asked of me surrender military advantage to an enemy inthe field I could not answer

It was my constant effort to preserve them and end this savageconflict honorably and with the least loss of time and minimumsacrifice of life

I am closing 52 years of military service But I still remem-ber the refrain of one of the most popular barrack ballads of thatday which proclaimed most proudly thatmdash

ldquoOld soldiers never die they just fade awayrdquo And like the oldsoldier of that ballad I now close my military career and just fadeawaymdashan old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave himthe light to see that duty Good-by

As the Cold War began talks to reunify Korea brokedown A Communist Korean government was organ-ized in the north while an American-backed govern-ment controlled the south Both governments claimedauthority over all of Korea and border clashes werecommon The Soviet Union provided extensive mili-tary aid to the North Koreans who quickly built up alarge well-equipped army On June 25 1950 NorthKorean troops invaded into the south rapidly drivingback the poorly equipped South Korean forces

The UN Intervenes Truman saw the Communistinvasion of South Korea as a test of the containmentpolicy and ordered United States naval and airpower

into action He then called on the United Nations to actTruman succeeded because the Soviet delegate wasboycotting the Security Council over its China policyand was not present to veto the American proposalWith the pledge of UN troops Truman orderedGeneral MacArthur to send American troops fromJapan to the Korean peninsula

On September 15 MacArthur ordered a daringinvasion behind enemy lines at the port of InchonThe Inchon landing took the North Koreans by sur-prise Within weeks they were in full retreat backacross the 38th parallel Truman then gave the orderto pursue the North Koreans beyond the 38th paral-lel MacArthur pushed the North Koreans north tothe Yalu River the border with China

China Enters the War The Communist Chinesegovernment saw the advancing UN troops as a threatand warned the forces to halt their advance Whenthose warnings were ignored China launched a mas-sive attack across the Yalu River in NovemberHundreds of thousands of Chinese troops floodedacross the border driving the UN forces back acrossthe 38th parallel

As his troops fell back an angry MacArthurdemanded approval to expand the war againstChina He asked for a blockade of Chinese ports theuse of Chiang Kai-shekrsquos Nationalist forces and thebombing of Chinese cities with atomic weapons

Truman Fires MacArthur President Truman re-fused MacArthurrsquos demands because he did notwant to expand the war into China or to use theatomic bomb MacArthur persisted He publicly criti-cized the president saying ldquoThere is no substitutefor victoryrdquo

Determined to maintain control of policy and showthat the president commanded the military an exas-perated Truman fired MacArthur for insubordinationin April 1951 MacArthur who remained populardespite being fired returned home to parades and aherorsquos welcome Despite criticism Truman remained

committed to limited warmdasha war fought to achieve alimited objective such ascontaining communism

Changes in Policy Trumanchose General MatthewRidgway to replaceMacArthur By mid-1951 theUN forces had pushed theChinese and North Koreanforces back across the 38thparallel The war then set-tled down into a series of relatively small battles overhills and other local objectives In November 1951peace negotiations began but an armistice would notbe signed until July 1953 More than 33600 Americansoldiers died in action in the Korean War and morethan 2800 died from accidents or from disease

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

In the 1940s Ruth Goldberg belonged to the Parent-Teacher Association in Queens NewYork In 1947 she agreed to run for PTA president but the campaign turned nasty BecauseGoldberg had associated with people with left-wing interests a rumor spread through theneighborhood that she was a Communist Suddenly Goldbergrsquos quiet life became terrifyingCallers threatened her and the local priest denounced her in his sermons One afternoonGoldbergrsquos eight-year-old son came home in tears A playmate had told him ldquoYou knowyour motherrsquos a Red She should be put up against a wall and shotrdquo

Looking back much later Goldberg saw the PTA campaign as part of a bigger and morecomplex pattern of distrust and hatred ldquoIt was a small thing but it was an indication of whathad happened with the Cold War with this Red spectermdashthat somebody like me could be adanger to a communityrdquo

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Convicted of Conspiracy Ethel and Julius Rosenberg were convicted of transmitting atomicsecrets to Soviet Russia What sentence did they receive

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Evaluating What were the effects ofMcCarthyism

Life During the Early Cold WarThe Red Scare and the spread of nuclear weapons

had a profound impact on life in the 1950s Fear ofcommunism and of nuclear war dominated life forordinary Americans as well as for government lead-ers throughout the era

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

The Korean War marked an important turning pointin the Cold War Until 1950 the United States had pre-ferred to use political pressure and economic aid tocontain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States embarked on a major military buildup

The Korean War also helped expand the Cold Warto Asia Before 1950 the United States had focused onEurope as the most important area in which to con-tain communism After the Korean War began theUnited States became more militarily involved inAsia Defense agreements were signed with JapanSouth Korea Taiwan the Philippines and AustraliaAmerican aid also began to flow to the French forcesfighting Communist guerrillas in Vietnam

In the 1940s Ruth Goldberg belonged to the Parent-Teacher Association in Queens NewYork In 1947 she agreed to run for PTA president but the campaign turned nasty BecauseGoldberg had associated with people with left-wing interests a rumor spread through theneighborhood that she was a Communist Suddenly Goldbergrsquos quiet life became terrifyingCallers threatened her and the local priest denounced her in his sermons One afternoonGoldbergrsquos eight-year-old son came home in tears A playmate had told him ldquoYou knowyour motherrsquos a Red She should be put up against a wall and shotrdquo

Looking back much later Goldberg saw the PTA campaign as part of a bigger and morecomplex pattern of distrust and hatred ldquoIt was a small thing but it was an indication of whathad happened with the Cold War with this Red spectermdashthat somebody like me could be adanger to a communityrdquo

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

1950 1953

In the 1940s Ruth Goldberg belonged to the Parent-Teacher Association in Queens NewYork In 1947 she agreed to run for PTA president but the campaign turned nasty BecauseGoldberg had associated with people with left-wing interests a rumor spread through theneighborhood that she was a Communist Suddenly Goldbergrsquos quiet life became terrifyingCallers threatened her and the local priest denounced her in his sermons One afternoonGoldbergrsquos eight-year-old son came home in tears A playmate had told him ldquoYou knowyour motherrsquos a Red She should be put up against a wall and shotrdquo

Looking back much later Goldberg saw the PTA campaign as part of a bigger and morecomplex pattern of distrust and hatred ldquoIt was a small thing but it was an indication of whathad happened with the Cold War with this Red spectermdashthat somebody like me could be adanger to a communityrdquo

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Page 16: The Cold War Begins€¦ · Causes of Cold War Soviet Union Western Allies General Goals In Europe In the Middle East In Asia At Home The Cold War • To create a protective sphere

The Red Scare began in September 1945 when aclerk named Igor Gouzenko walked out of the SovietEmbassy in Ottawa Canada and defected Gouzenkocarried documents revealing a massive effort by theSoviet Union to infiltrate organizations and govern-ment agencies in Canada and the United States withthe specific goal of obtaining information about theatomic bomb

The Gouzenko case stunned Americans It impliedthat spies had infiltrated the American governmentSoon however the search for spies escalated into ageneral fear of Communist subversion Subversionis the effort to secretly weaken a society and over-throw its government As the Cold War intensified in1946 and early 1947 Americans began to fear thatCommunists were secretly working to subvert theAmerican government

GOVERNMENT

The Loyalty Review Program In early 1947 justnine days after his powerful speech announcing theTruman Doctrine the president established a loyaltyreview program to screen all federal employeesRather than calm public suspicion Trumanrsquos actionseemed to confirm fears that Communists had infil-trated the government and helped increase the fear ofcommunism sweeping the nation

Between 1947 and 1951 over 6 million federalemployees were screened for their loyaltymdasha termdifficult to define A person might become a suspectfor reading certain books belonging to variousgroups traveling overseas or even seeing certain for-eign films About 14000 employees were subject tointensive scrutiny from the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) Some 2000 employees quit theirjobs during the check many under pressure Another212 were fired for ldquoquestionable loyaltyrdquothough no actual evidence against themwas uncovered

HUAC Although the FBI helped screenfederal employees FBI Director J EdgarHoover was not satisfied In 1947 Hooverwent before the House Un-AmericanActivities Committee (HUAC) Formed in1938 to investigate both Communist andFascist activities in the United StatesHUAC was a relatively minor committeeuntil Hoover catapulted it to prominence

Hoover urged HUAC to hold publichearings on Communist subversion Thecommittee Hoover said could reveal ldquothediabolic machinations of sinister figures

engaged in un-American activitiesrdquo Once Com-munists were identified he explained the publicwould isolate them and end their influenceHooverrsquos aim was to expose not just Communistsbut also ldquoCommunist sympathizersrdquo and ldquofellowtravelersrdquo Under Hooverrsquos leadership the FBI sentagents to infiltrate groups suspected of subversionand wiretapped thousands of telephones

Alger Hiss In 1948 Whittaker Chambers a Timemagazine editor and former Communist Party mem-ber testified to HUAC that several government offi-cials were also former Communists or spies

The most prominent government official namedby Chambers was Alger Hiss a lawyer and diplomatwho had served in Rooseveltrsquos administrationattended the Yalta conference and taken part inorganizing the United Nations After Hiss sued himfor libel Chambers testified before a grand jury thatin 1937 and 1938 Hiss gave him secret documentsfrom the State Department Hiss denied being eithera spy or a member of the Communist Party and healso denied ever having known Chambers

The committee was ready to drop the investiga-tion until Representative Richard Nixon of Californiaconvinced his colleagues to continue the hearings todetermine whether Hiss or Chambers had lied Asthe committee continued to question Hiss he admit-ted that he had indeed met Chambers in the 1930sWhen Chambers continued to claim that Hiss was aCommunist Hiss sued him claiming that his accusa-tions were unfounded and malicious

To defend himself Chambers produced copies ofsecret documents along with microfilm that he hadhidden in a hollow pumpkin on his farm Theseldquopumpkin papersrdquo Chambers claimed proved that

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Evaluating What were the effects ofMcCarthyism

Life During the Early Cold WarThe Red Scare and the spread of nuclear weapons

had a profound impact on life in the 1950s Fear ofcommunism and of nuclear war dominated life forordinary Americans as well as for government lead-ers throughout the era

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Hollywood on TrialOne of HUACrsquos first hearings focused on

the film industry as a powerful cultural forcethat Communists might use and manipulateIts interviews routinely began ldquoAre you nowor have you ever been a member of theCommunist Partyrdquo As fear of Communists inHollywood spread producers then drew upa blacklist and agreed not to hire anyone inthe film industry who was believed to be aCommunist or who refused to cooperatewith the committee The blacklist createdan atmosphere of distrust and fearPeople could be blacklistedfor making chance remarkscriticizing HUAC or knowinga suspected Communist

Ronald Reagan head of the ScreenActors Guild at the time testifiedthat there were Communists inHollywood

Ten screenwriters known as the ldquoHollywood Tenrdquo(shown here with their lawyers) used their FifthAmendment right to protect themselves from self-incrimination and refused to testify before HUAC

he was telling the truth A jury agreed and con-victed Hiss of perjury or lying under oath

The Rosenbergs Another sensational spy case cen-tered around accusations that American Communistshad sold the secrets of the atomic bomb Many people did not believe that the Soviet Union couldhave produced an atomic bomb in 1949 without helpThis belief intensified the hunt for spies

In 1950 the hunt led to Klaus Fuchs a British scien-tist who admitted sending information to the SovietUnion His testimony led the FBI to arrest Julius andEthel Rosenberg a New York couple who weremembers of the Communist Party The governmentcharged them with heading a Soviet spy ring

The Rosenbergs denied the charges but were con-demned to death for espionage Many peoplebelieved that they were not leaders or spies but vic-tims caught up in the wave of anti-Communistfrenzy Appeals public expressions of support andpleas for clemency failed however and the couplewas executed in June 1953

Project Venona The American public hotly debatedthe guilt or innocence of individuals like theRosenbergs who were accused as spies There washowever solid evidence of Soviet espionagealthough very few Americans knew it at the time In1946 American cryptographers working for a projectcode-named ldquoVenonardquo cracked the Soviet spy code ofthe time enabling them to read approximately 3000

messages between Moscow and the United Statescollected during the Cold War The messages con-firmed extensive Soviet spying and sent federalinvestigators on a massive hunt To keep the Sovietsfrom learning how thoroughly the United States hadpenetrated their codes authorities chose not to makethe intercepted messages public Not until 1995 didthe government reveal Project Venonarsquos existenceThe Venona documents provided strong evidencethat the Rosenbergs were guilty

The Red Scare Spreads Following the federal gov-ernmentrsquos example many state and local govern-ments universities businesses unions and churchesbegan their own efforts to find Communists TheUniversity of California required its 11000 facultymembers to take loyalty oaths and fired 157 whorefused to do so Many Catholic groups becamestrongly anticommunist and urged their members toidentify Communists within the church

The Taft-Hartley Act required union leaders to takeoaths that they were not Communists but many unionleaders did not object Instead they launched their ownefforts to purge Communists from their organizationsThe president of the CIO called Communist sympa-thizers ldquoskulking cowardsrdquo and ldquoapostles of haterdquo TheCIO eventually expelled 11 unions that refused toremove Communist leaders from their organization

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Evaluating What were the effects ofMcCarthyism

Life During the Early Cold WarThe Red Scare and the spread of nuclear weapons

had a profound impact on life in the 1950s Fear ofcommunism and of nuclear war dominated life forordinary Americans as well as for government lead-ers throughout the era

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Red Channels published in 1950 wasprepared by three ex-FBI agents Thebooklet claimed to identify 151 subver-sive entertainers in radio and television

A number of well-known Hollywood celebritiesincluding actors Humphrey Bogart and LaurenBacall (front row) went to Washington to protestHUACrsquos investigation of alleged Communists

ldquoA Conspiracy So ImmenserdquoIn 1949 the Red Scare intensified even further That

year the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomicbomb and China fell to communism To manyAmericans these events seemed to prove that theUnited States was losing the Cold War Deeply con-cerned they wanted an explanation as to why theirgovernment was failing As a result many continuedto believe that Communists had infiltrated the gov-ernment and remained undetected

In February 1950 soon after Alger Hissrsquos perjuryconviction a little-known Wisconsin senator gave apolitical speech to a Republican womenrsquos group inWest Virginia Halfway through his speech SenatorJoseph R McCarthy made a surprising statement

ldquoWhile I cannot take the time to name all the menin the State Department who have been named asmembers of the Communist Party and members of aspy ring I have here in my hand a list of 205 thatwere known to the Secretary of State as being mem-bers of the Communist Party and who neverthelessare still working and shaping the policy of the StateDepartmentrdquo

mdashquoted in The Fifties

By the next day the Associated Press had picked upthe statement and sent it to papers all over the countryWhen McCarthy arrived at the Denver airport

reporters crowded around him and asked to see hislist of Communists in the state department McCarthyreplied that he would be happy to show them the listbut unfortunately it was packed in his bag on theplane In fact the list never appeared McCarthy how-ever continued to make charges and draw attention

McCarthyrsquos Charges Born in 1908 near AppletonWisconsin Joseph R McCarthy studied law andserved in World War II before his first run for theSenate McCarthyrsquos 1946 political campaign soundedthe keynote of his career Without making any spe-cific charges or offering any proof McCarthyaccused his opponent Robert M La Follette Jr ofbeing ldquocommunistically inclinedrdquo Fear of commu-nism plus McCarthyrsquos intense speeches won himthe election

After becoming a senator McCarthy continued toproclaim that Communists were a danger both athome and abroad To some of his audiences he dis-tributed a booklet called ldquoThe Party of Betrayalrdquowhich accused Democratic Party leaders of corrup-tion and of protecting Communists Secretary ofState Dean Acheson was a frequent targetAccording to McCarthy Acheson was incompetentand a tool of Stalin He wildly accused George CMarshall the former army chief of staff and secre-tary of state of disloyalty as a member of ldquoa conspir-acy so immense as to dwarf any previous suchventures in the history of manrdquo

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Popular Culture in the Cold War Worries aboutnuclear war and Communist infiltration filled peoplersquosimaginations Cold War nightmares soon appeared infilms and popular fiction

At the same time these fears were hauntingAmericans the country was enjoying postwar pros-perity and optimism That spirit combined withMcCarthyism witch hunts fears of Communist infil-tration and the threat of atomic attack made theearly 1950s a time of contrasts As the 1952 electionapproached Americans were looking for someone orsomething that would make them feel secure

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

794 CHAPTER 26 The Cold War Begins

McCarthy Goes Too Far Army lawyer Joseph Welch listensto Senator McCarthy during the televised Army-McCarthy hear-ings How did televising the hearings affect McCarthyism

History

McCarthy was not alone in making such chargesIn the prevailing mood of anxiety about communismmany Americans were ready to believe them

The McCarran Internal Security Act In 1950 withthe Korean War underway and McCarthy and othersarousing fears of Communist spies Congress passedthe Internal Security Act usually called theMcCarran Act Declaring that ldquoworld Communismhas as its sole purpose the establishment of a totali-tarian dictatorship in Americardquo Senator PatMcCarran of Nevada offered a way to fight ldquotreach-ery infiltration sabotage and terrorismrdquo The actmade it illegal to ldquocombine conspire or agree withany other person to perform any act which wouldsubstantially contribute to the establishment of atotalitarian governmentrdquo The law required all Com-munist Party and ldquoCommunist-frontrdquo organizationsto register with the United States attorney generaland publish their records The act also created otherrestrictions for Communists For example they couldnot get passports to travel abroad

The McCarran Act did not stop there In case of anational emergency it allowed the arrest and deten-tion of Communists and Communist sympathizersUnwilling to punish people for their opinionsTruman vetoed the bill but Congress easily passed it

over his veto in 1950 Later Supreme Court caseshowever ensured that the McCarran Act wouldnever be very effective

McCarthyrsquos Tactics After the 1952 election gave theRepublicans control of Congress McCarthy becamechairman of the Senate subcommittee on investiga-tions Using the power of his committee to force gov-ernment officials to testify about alleged Communistinfluences McCarthy turned the investigation into awitch huntmdasha search for disloyalty based on flimsyevidence and irrational fears His tactic of damagingreputations with vague and unfounded chargesbecame known as McCarthyism

McCarthyrsquos theatrics and sensational accusationsdrew the attention of the press which put him in theheadlines and quoted him widely When he ques-tioned witnesses McCarthy would badger themand then refuse to accept their answers His tacticsleft a cloud of suspicion that McCarthy and othersinterpreted as guilt Furthermore people wereafraid to challenge him for fear of becoming targetsthemselves

own internal investigation and found no spies orany suspicion of espionage Furious at the denialMcCarthy took his investigation onto television Hequestioned and challenged officers in a harsh voiceharassing them about trivial details and accusingthem of misconduct

During weeks of televised Army-McCarthyhearings in the spring of 1954 millions ofAmericans watched McCarthy bully witnesses Hispopular support started to fade Finally to strikeback at the army lawyer Joseph Welch McCarthybrought up the past of a young lawyer in Welchrsquosfirm who had been a member of a Communist-frontorganization during his law school years Welchwho was fully aware of the young manrsquos past nowexploded at McCarthy for possibly ruining theyoung manrsquos career ldquoUntil this moment I think Inever really gauged your cruelty or your reckless-ness You have done enough Have you nosense of decency sir at long last Have you left nosense of decencyrdquo

Spectators cheered Welch had said aloud whatmany Americans had been thinking One senator onthe committee Stuart Symington of Missouri was alsorepelled ldquoThe American people have had a look at youfor six weeks You are not fooling anyonerdquo McCarthyhad lost the power to arouse fear Newspaper head-lines repeated ldquoHave you no sense of decencyrdquo

Later that year the Senate passed a vote ofcensure or formal disapproval against McCarthymdashone of the most serious criticisms it can level againsta member His influence gone McCarthy faded frompublic view Although he remained in the Senate hehad little influence He died in 1957 a broken andembittered man

Life During the Early Cold WarThe Red Scare and the spread of nuclear weapons

Popular Culture in the Cold War Worries aboutnuclear war and Communist infiltration filled peoplersquosimaginations Cold War nightmares soon appeared infilms and popular fiction

Matt Cvetic was an FBI undercover informantwho secretly infiltrated the Communist Party inPittsburgh His story captivated magazine readers inthe Saturday Evening Post in 1950 and came to thescreen the next year as I Was a Communist for the FBIAnother suspense film Walk East on Beacon (1951)features the FBIrsquos activities in an espionage case In1953 television took up the theme with a series aboutan undercover FBI counterspy who was also aCommunist Party official Each week I Led ThreeLives kept television viewers on edge

In 1954 author Philip Wylie published TomorrowThis novel describes the horrific effects of nuclearwar on an unprepared American city As an adviseron civil defense Wylie had failed to convince the fed-eral government to play a strong role in buildingbomb shelters Frustrated he wrote this novel to edu-cate the public about the horrors of atomic war

At the same time these fears were hauntingAmericans the country was enjoying postwar pros-perity and optimism That spirit combined withMcCarthyism witch hunts fears of Communist infil-tration and the threat of atomic attack made theearly 1950s a time of contrasts As the 1952 electionapproached Americans were looking for someone orsomething that would make them feel secure

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

At the same time these fears were hauntingAmericans the country was enjoying postwar pros-perity and optimism That spirit combined withMcCarthyism witch hunts fears of Communist infil-tration and the threat of atomic attack made theearly 1950s a time of contrasts As the 1952 electionapproached Americans were looking for someone orsomething that would make them feel secure

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

On May 1 1960 CIA pilot Francis Gary Powers sat in the cockpit of his U-2 spy plane fly-ing at more than 60000 feet over Afghanistan His mission was to fly over suspected Sovietmissile bases and photograph them

As Powers passed over the forbidden border into the Soviet Union he felt a familiar thrillldquoThere was no abrupt change in topographyrdquo he remembered ldquoyet the moment you crossedthe border you sensed the difference Knowing there were people who would shoot youdown if they could created a strange tension I wondered how the Russians felt knowingI was up here unable to do anything about it I could imagine their frustration and ragerdquo

Suddenly Powers heard a dull thump A surface-to-air missile exploded nearby in a flashof orange The planersquos wings snapped off leaving the spinning aircraft plummeting downtowards the earth Powers screamed ldquoIrsquove had it nowrdquo

The downing of Powersrsquos plane set off one of the major confrontations of the Cold Warduring the presidency of Dwight D Eisenhower

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Tired of the criticism and uncertain he could winTruman decided not to run again The Democratsnominated Adlai Stevenson governor of Illinois TheRepublicans chose Dwight D Eisenhower the gen-eral who had organized the D-Day invasion

Despite Stevensonrsquos charming personality andskilled speech making he had no chance against anational hero who had helped win World War IIAmericans were looking for someone they couldtrust to lead the nation in its Cold War struggleagainst communism Eisenhower won in a landslide

ldquoMore Bang for the Buckrdquo The Cold War shapedEisenhowerrsquos thinking from the moment he tookoffice Eisenhower was convinced that the key to vic-tory in the Cold War was not simply military mightbut also a strong economy The United States had toshow the world that free enterprise could produce abetter and more prosperous society than commu-nism At the same time economic prosperity wouldprevent Communists from gaining support in theUnited States and protect society from subversion

As a professional soldier Eisenhower knew thecosts associated with large-scale conventional warPreparing for that kind of warfare he believedwould cost far too much money ldquoWe cannot defend

the nation in a way which will exhaust our econ-omyrdquo Eisenhower declared A ldquoNew Lookrdquo indefense policy was needed Instead of maintaining alarge and expensive army the nation ldquomust be pre-pared to use atomic weapons in all formsrdquo Nuclearweapons he said gave ldquomore bang for the buckrdquo

Massive Retaliation The Korean War had con-vinced Eisenhower that the United States could notcontain communism by fighting a series of smallwars Such wars were unpopular and too expensiveInstead they had to be prevented from happening inthe first place The best way to do that seemed to beto threaten to use nuclear weapons if a Communiststate tried to seize territory by force This policy cameto be called massive retaliation

The new policy enabled Eisenhower to cut mili-tary spending from $50 billion to $34 billion He didthis by cutting back the army which required a lot ofmoney to maintain At the same time he increasedAmericarsquos nuclear arsenal from about 1000 bombs in1953 to about 18000 bombs in 1961

The Sputnik Crisis The New Lookrsquos emphasis onnuclear weapons required new technology to deliverthem In 1955 the air force unveiled the huge B-52

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

bomber which was designed to fly across continentsand drop nuclear bombs anywhere in the worldBecause bombers could be shot down Eisenhoweralso began development of intercontinental ballisticmissiles (ICBMs) that could deliver bombs anywherein the world He also began a program to build sub-marines capable of launching nuclear missiles

As the United States began to develop long-rangenuclear missiles Americans were stunned to dis-cover the Soviet Union had already developed theirown On October 4 1957 the Soviets launchedSputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the earthThis technological triumph alarmed Americans whotook it as a sign that the United States was fallingbehind the Soviet Union in missile technology

Eisenhower insisted he was not worried justbecause the Soviets ldquoput one small ball into the airrdquoMembers of Congress on the other hand feared thenation was falling behind in scientific research Thefollowing year Congress created the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tocoordinate research in rocket science and space explo-ration It also passed the National Defense EducationAct (NDEA) which provided funds for educationand training in science math and foreign languages

Summarizing How did Eisenhoweralter the nature of defense spending

Brinkmanship In ActionPresident Eisenhowerrsquos apparent willingness to

threaten nuclear war to maintain the peace worriedsome people Secretary of State John Foster Dulleshowever the dominant figure in the nationrsquos foreignpolicy in the 1950s strongly defended the policy

ldquoYou have to take chances for peace just as youmust take chances in war Some say that we werebrought to the verge of war Of course we werebrought to the verge of war The ability to get to theverge without getting into the war is the necessaryart If you try to run away from it if you arescared to go to the brink you are lost Wersquove had tolook it square in the face We walked to the brinkand we looked it in the face We took strongactionrdquo

mdashquoted in Rise to Globalism

Critics called this brinkmanshipmdashthe willingnessto go to the brink of war to force the other side toback downmdashand argued that it was too dangerous

Several times however President Eisenhower feltcompelled to threaten nuclear war during a crisis

The Korean War Ends During his campaign for thepresidency Eisenhower had said ldquoI shall go toKoreardquo promising to end the costly and increasinglyunpopular war On December 4 1952 just weeksafter his election he kept his promise Bundledagainst the freezing Korean winter the president-elect talked with frontline commanders and theirtroops

Eisenhower became convinced that the ongoingbattle was costing too many lives and bringing toofew victories ldquoSmall attacks on small hillsrdquo the for-mer general declared ldquo[will] not end this warrdquo Thepresident then quietly let the Chinese know that theUnited States might continue the Korean War ldquoundercircumstances of our own choosingrdquomdasha hint atnuclear attack

The threat to go to the brink of nuclear war seemedto work In July 1953 negotiators signed an armisticeThe battle line between the two sides which was verynear the prewar boundary became the borderbetween North Korea and South Korea A ldquodemilita-rized zonerdquo (DMZ) separated them There was no vic-tory but the war had at least stopped the spread ofcommunism in Koreamdashthe goal of containmentAmerican troops are still based in Korea helpingSouth Korea defend its border

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

The Taiwan Crisis Shortly after the war ended anew crisis erupted in Asia Although the ChineseCommunists had taken power in mainland China theChinese Nationalists still controlled Taiwan and sev-eral small islands along Chinarsquos coast

In the fall of 1954 China threatened to seize two ofthe islands from the Nationalists Eisenhower sawTaiwan as part of the ldquoanticommunist barrierrdquo inAsia When China began shelling the islands andannounced that Taiwan would soon be liberatedEisenhower asked Congress to authorize the use offorce to defend Taiwan

Eisenhower then warned the Chinese that anyattempt to invade Taiwan would be resisted byAmerican naval forces stationed nearby He and Dulleshinted that they would use nuclear weapons to stop aninvasion Soon afterward China backed down

The Suez Crisis The year after Eisenhower went tothe brink of war with China a serious crisis eruptedin the Middle East Eisenhowerrsquos goal in the Middle

East was to prevent Arab nations from aligning withthe Soviet Union To build support among ArabsDulles offered to help Egypt finance the constructionof a dam on the Nile River The Egyptians eagerlyaccepted the American offer

The deal ran into trouble in Congress howeverbecause Egypt had bought weapons from CommunistCzechoslovakia Dulles was forced to withdraw theoffer A week later Egyptian troops seized control ofthe Suez Canal from the Anglo-French company thathad controlled it The Egyptians intended to use thecanalrsquos profits to pay for the dam

The British and French responded quickly to theSuez Crisis In October 1956 British and French troopsinvaded Egypt Eisenhower was furious with Britainand France He declared they had made a ldquocompletemess and botch of thingsrdquo The situation became evenmore tense when the Soviet Union threatened rocketattacks on Britain and France and offered to sendtroops to help Egypt Eisenhower immediately putAmerican nuclear forces on alert noting ldquoIf those

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

Under strong American pressure the British andFrench called off their invasion The Soviet Unionhad won a major diplomatic victory however bysupporting Egypt Soon afterward other Arabnations began accepting Soviet aid as well

Identifying What was brinkmanship

Fighting Communism Covertly President Eisenhower relied on brinkmanship on

several occasions but he knew it could not work inall situations It could prevent war but it could notfor example prevent Communists from staging revo-lutions within countries To prevent Communistuprisings in other countries Eisenhower decided touse covert or hidden operations conducted by theCentral Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Containment in Developing Nations Many of theCIArsquos operations took place in developing nationsmdashnations with primarily agricultural economies Manyof these countries blamed European imperialism andAmerican capitalism for their problems Their leaderslooked to the Soviet Union as a model of how to in-dustrialize their countries They often threatened tonationalize or put under government control foreignbusinesses operating in their countries

American officials feared that these leaders mightalign their nations with the Soviet Union or evenstage a Communist revolution One way to stop de-veloping nations from moving into the Communistcamp was to provide them with financial aid asEisenhower had tried to do in Egypt In some caseshowever where the threat of communism seemedstronger the CIA staged covert operations to over-throw anti-American leaders and replace them withpro-American leaders

Iran and Guatemala Two examples of covert oper-ations that achieved American objectives took placein Iran and Guatemala By 1953 Iranian prime minis-ter Mohammed Mossadegh had already nationalizedthe Anglo-Iranian Oil Company He seemed ready tomake an oil deal with the Soviet Union In 1953Mossadegh moved against the pro-American Shah ofIran who was temporarily forced into exile Dullesquickly sent agents to organize street riots andarrange a coup that ousted Mossadegh and the Shahreturned to power

The following year the CIA acted to protectAmerican-owned property in Guatemala In 1951Jacobo Arbenz Guzmaacuten won election as president ofGuatemala with Communist support His landreform program took over large estates includingthose of the American-owned United Fruit CompanyIn May 1954 Communist Czechoslovakia deliveredarms to Guatemala The CIA responded by armingthe Guatemalan opposition and training them atsecret camps in Nicaragua and Honduras Shortlyafter these CIA-trained forces invaded GuatemalaArbenz Guzmaacuten left office

Uprising in Hungary Covert operations did notalways work as Eisenhower hoped In 1953 Stalindied and a power struggle began in the SovietUnion By 1956 Nikita Khrushchev had emerged asthe leader of the Soviet Union That year Khrushchevdelivered a secret speech to Soviet leaders Heattacked Stalinrsquos policies and insisted there were

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo

many ways to build a Communist society Althoughthe speech was secret the CIA obtained a copy WithEisenhowerrsquos permission the CIA arranged for it tobe broadcast to Eastern Europe

Many Eastern Europeans had long been frustratedwith Communist rule Hearing Khrushchevrsquos speechfurther discredited communism In June 1956 riotserupted in Eastern Europe By late October a full-scale uprising had begun in Hungary AlthoughKhrushchev was willing to tolerate greater freedomin Eastern Europe he had never meant to imply thatthe Soviets would tolerate an end to communism inEastern Europe Soon after the uprising began Soviettanks rolled into Budapest the capital of Hungaryand crushed the rebellion

Explaining Why did Eisenhoweruse covert operations

Continuing TensionsThe uprising in Hungary forced Khrushchev to

reassert Soviet power and the superiority ofcommunism Previously he had supportedldquopeaceful coexistencerdquo with capitalism Now heaccused the ldquocapitalist countriesrdquo of starting aldquofeverish arms racerdquo In 1957 after the launch ofSputnik Khrushchev boasted ldquoWe will burycapitalism Your grandchildren will live undercommunismrdquo

In late 1958 Khrushchev demanded that the UnitedStates Great Britain and France withdraw their troopsfrom West Berlin Secretary of State Dulles rejectedKhrushchevrsquos demands If the Soviets threatened

Berlin Dulles announced NATO would respond ldquoifneed be by military forcerdquo Brinkmanship workedagain and Khrushchev backed down

To try to improve relations Eisenhower invitedKhrushchev to visit the United States in late 1959The visit went well and the two leaders agreed tohold a summit in Paris in 1960 A summit is a formalface-to-face meeting of leaders from different coun-tries to discuss important issues

Shortly before the summit was to begin the SovietUnion shot down the American U-2 spy plane pilotedby Francis Gary Powers At first Eisenhower claimedthat the aircraft was a weather plane that had strayedoff course Then Khrushchev dramatically producedthe pilot Eisenhower refused to apologize saying theflights had protected American security In responseKhrushchev broke up the summit

In this climate of heightened tension PresidentEisenhower prepared to leave office In January1961 he delivered a farewell address to the nationIn the address he pointed out that a new relation-ship had developed between the military establish-ment and the defense industry He warnedAmericans to be on guard against the immenseinfluence of this military-industrial complex in ademocracy Although he had avoided war and keptcommunism contained Eisenhower admitted tosome frustration ldquoI confess I lay down my officialresponsibility in this field with a definite sense ofdisappointment I wish I could say that a lastingpeace is in sightrdquo
