| Description | Cartoon shows a ragged old fat gentleman (the cartoonist's symbol for the Republican Party) on a rocky trail labeled "Reaction," gazing at a sign on a large boulder blocking his way. The sign reads: "Nicholas Murray Butler's Call for Party Reorganization along Liberal Lines." After Franklin D. Roosevelt's landslide victory in 1932, Butler, President of Columbia University and a Republican stalwart, called for a takeover of the party by young liberal elements. |
