| Description | Cartoon shows President Hoover as a boy holding a basket labeled "Hoover Policies." The Democratic donkey and the goat with one horn (Berryman's symbol for Progressive Republicans) are using a mallet to break Easter eggs, saying, "Little Pal, crack 'em." The GOP elephant, shown as a distraught nursemaid says, "Herb, I just can't do a thing with 'em!" The children's Easter Egg Roll, held the Monday after Easter at the White House, was a long time tradition. The cartoonist comments on the President's poor relations with Congress, caused in part by party politics, but also by Hoover's disinclination to work closely with Congressional members. |
