Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: Top left: Out. Congress kicks two bills Trumans Tax Cut Veto and House Provision to Include Spain in E.R.P. Funds out the door and down the steps. Top right: Large Books Are the Vogue. Public walks out of the Library (Vanderburgh Court House) carrying a huge book listing all the candidates participating in the May 4th election. Bottom left: Barnstorming. Dewey and Stassen are inside a small room with lighted mirrors like those in a performers dressing room. Dewey is packing a suitcase, while Stassen is reading a newspaper with the headline What Maine G.O.P. did Friday. Dewey says he is going to Nebraska next week and asks Stassen about his plans. Bottom right: Toying with Ideas. Governor Gates piles coins into an already-full money bag. Next to him is a filing cabinet with a drawer labeled Ideas pulled out. Sheets of paper fly out of the drawer; they have suggestions for ways to Stop Jenner, which a thought bubble reveals to be Gatess goal.
Dewey, Thomas E. (Thomas Edmund), 1902-1971; Gates, Ralph F. (Ralph Fesler), 1893-1978; Stassen, Harold E. (Harold Edward), 1907-2001
