| Description | Cartoon shows a crying boy (labeled "Economy"), standing in front of a Christmas tree, holding an empty stocking labeled "Special Session." A note on the fireplace reads: "Dear Santa, Please bring me a little economy." In 1937, at the height of the New Deal, new clamors arose for economy in government and a balanced budget. President Roosevelt, who had been repudiated by some of his supporters, called a special session of Congress, but it adjourned with no new legislation. |
