| Description | Cartoon shows President Roosevelt as a hunter, gazing at two flying eagles, one labeled "The Blue Eagle," the other, "The Lone Eagle." The Blue Eagle was the symbol of the National Recovery Administration, a New Deal program declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1935. The Lone Eagle was the nickname for Charles Lindbergh, the aviation hero, who advocated isolationism in the years before the United States entered World War II. In April 1941, Roosevelt called Lindbergh a defeatist and an appeaser, and Lindbergh resigned from the Army Air Corps Reserve. |
