| Description | Cartoon shows a shabbily-dressed man (labeled "World War Tax Payer") gesturing toward an Oriental man (labeled "Japanese Tax Payer") wearing a bowler hat and a kimona. A sign reads, "Japan Approves $400,000,000 Budget of Which $243,354,000 Is for War Purposes." In 1933, war debts and reparations were widely viewed as leading causes of the Depression in Europe. The cartoonist suggests that the Japanese, who were following an increasingly militaristic policy in China, should heed this lesson. |
