| Description | Cartoon shows Uncle Sam holding his hands over his ears, while Berryman's signature bear tries to hide in a wastepaper basket. Behind them a large alarm clock (labeled "Hiram Johnson") cries "Defiance of the Peepul!" "First for Americans," "Betrayers!" "Kellogg Piffle Pact." Senator Hiram Johnson was one of the most outspoken isolationists of the 1920s and 1930s. He eventually voted for the ratification of the Kellogg Briand Peace Pact (an agreement signed by 15 nations in which they agreed to renounce war as "an instrument of national policy") but he declared it to be meaningless. |
