| Description | Cartoon shows a ragged and battered working man, with wild hair, a bandaged head, and an arm in a sling, sitting disconsolately in a jail cell. His cap is labeled "Communism," and a paper at his feet reads "Worldwide Demonstration March 6, 1930." He reflects, "It was a great success after all." A worldwide Communist demonstration to protest unemployment was staged on March 6 with mixed results. The marches went off peacefully in some places, but in others there were riots. In New York City, 30,000 rioted and five Communist leaders including William Z. Foster were arrested and held without bail. |
