Description | Cartoon shows German Chancellor Wilhelm Cuno, in a thunderstorm on log suspended over rough water labeled "German discontent," facing a flag labeled "French occupation" and a bayonet. In early 1923, the German government faced the problems of its own citizens angry at what they thought were the unfair terms of the Treaty of Versailles and the threats of the French to invade the Ruhr on the grounds that the Germans were in default in paying reparations. |
