| Description | Cartoon shows Polish musician and prime minister Ignace Paderewski playing the "March of Democracy" on a piano (labeled "Poland"). A bearded Bolshevik, carrying an axe, crawls from beneath the piano. A sign on the wall reads: "Notice to Bolsheviks: Don't Break Up the Harmony." The cartoon reflects the war in 1919 and 1920 between the newly independent state of Poland and the Soviet Union. Suggests that the new Soviet Bolshevik government may imperil the democratic regimes established after World War I. |
