| Description | Cartoon shows a fat old gentleman (the cartoonist's symbol for the Republican Party) and Republican presidential candidate Herbert Hoover gazing at a placard reading: "Retaliatory Canadian Tariffs Go into Effect Cutting $75,000,000 to $150,000,000 from U.S. Trade." The fat man comments, "Bad luck, Herbert, comming just at election time." The cartoon suggests that the Republicans will have only themselves to blame if retaliation for the high tariff laws passed by a Republican Congress in 1930 ends up hurting Hoover in his campaign for reelection. |
