Description | Cartoon shows John Q. Public (labeled "Consumer") accompanied by two small children, relaxing in a lions' den (labeled "Uncontrolled Prices"). One smiling lion wheels a child in a baby carriage while the other child stands with a lion at the mouth of a cave. John Q. Public comments "I thought this was supposed to be so dangerous." Using the motif of the Bible story, warns that consumer indifference to rising prices may be potentially hazardous. Actually prices had remained relatively stable in 1952. |
