| Description | Cartoon shows Soviet leader Joseph Stalin and Chinese leader Mao Tse- tung looking in puzzlement at a banner reading: "Peace on Earth Good Will to Men." The caption comes from the poem "Excelsior" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Published as Christmas approached, suggests that the Communist leaders do not understand the concept of peace as embodied in the Biblical story of the Nativity. |
