We had hoped to release this highly pertinent cartoon by Frederick G. Cooper (1883-1962) as a postcard, but unfortunately the reduction from full-page to postcard-size resulted in an unacceptable loss of print quality (click on the image for a better view). The original appeared in Life on November 30, 1911.
