| Description | Cartoon shows President Eisenhower sternly admonishing a Russian figure wearing the head portion of a diver's outfit labelled "Iron Curtain Policy." Probably refers to the skepticism in the United States when the Soviet Union made peace overtures in 1953 after the death of Stalin. Eisenhower responded with a speech in April 1953 in which he said the United States was willing to look for ways to ensure peace if the Soviet Union would take positive steps to relax its aggressive stance especially in Eastern Europe. |
