Description | Cartoon shows Chinese leader Mao Tse-tung using the child's method of pulling the petals off a flower in deciding whether to agree to a truce during the Korean War. Although truce talks began in July 1951, an armistice was not signed for two years. The United States viewed the Chinese participation in the talks as arbitrary and capricious. |
