Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: Labor leader John Lewis stands in the center of the cartoon with his hands in his trouser pockets. Ghostly figures of Lewis lean around him on each side and state that there is no strike taking place, that it is a brief stabilizing period of inaction, an extended vacation, or a three-day work week...but that the regular work schedule will be resumed if workers get a pension fund.
Lewis, John L. (John Llewellyn), 1880-1969

Its a brief stabilizing period of inaction. Strike? No--just prolonging your holiday. Not a strike! Just work 3 days a week. With no pension fund, no work! Lewis. President of Miners. Must be two other fellows. [in margins: Not a Strike. 48.]
