| Description | Cartoon shows Works Progress Administration head Harry Hopkins (wearing an academic cap and gown) on the floor on his stomach vainly trying to hide piles of paper labeled "W.P.A. Records for Billions of Public's Money." He indignantly asks a figure (labeled "U.S. Public") "Have you any official business here?" Reflects the suspicions of those who questioned whether the billions of dollars spent by the Roosevelt New Deal for work relief were being spent effectively. Old time Democrats viewed the New Deal bureaucrats as impractical intellectuals who knew little about meeting a payroll. |
