| Description | Cartoon shows a hand (labeled "Sawyer Committee") firmly holding on to the coat of President Truman, garbed as Santa Claus, who is heading for Europe with a bag full of "Give Away" Programs. On December 17, Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer reported to the President that his committee had concluded that economic conditions in Europe were much better than expected and that some U.S. aid and personnel could be reduced. The cartoonist suggests that this report would prevent the President from recommending unnecessary foreign aid. |
