i think you are confused with the 2nd world war in which atom bombs were used by Truman to punish the Japanese.
Editor's Note: President Eisenhower is the correct President for this answer.
According to one author of Wikipedia, under the heading of Dwight D. Eisenhower: "As President, Eisenhower threatened to use nuclear weapons, forcing China to agree to a cease-fire of the Korean War. He maintained pressure on the Soviet Union during the Cold War, gave priority to inexpensive nuclear weapons and reduced the other forces to save money."
I could not have said it any better than that author so I had to quote him. (I think it was Graham87 but I am uncertain it was him for certain.)
