Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: Scene of Japan under American occupation. MacArthur is visible in silhouette (recognizable by his corncob pipe) as he talks to a man in an ornate chair, probably the emperor. A flag on the outside of the building identifies it as MacArthurs headquarters, formerly the emperors summer palace. American flags fly from flagpoles all over the scene, and Japanese people greet the Americans.
MacArthur, Douglas, 1880-1964
