Description | Cartoon shows labor leaders John L. Lewis, William Green, and Philip Murray hoisting a flag labeled "The Right to Strike" above a flag hoisted by Congress labeled "All Out for Defense." The labor leaders tell the shocked Congress that their flag goes on top. In 1941, strikes threatened the government's efforts to mount a massive national defense program. Berryman views this insistence on the rights of labor in the face of the looming crisis caused by the war in Europe as unpatriotic. |
