Description | Cartoon in two parts. The first shows Republican presidential candidate Dwight D. Eisenhower, seated on a sofa with the GOP elephant, dropping a "White House 'Briefing' Invitation" into a trash can (labeled "Rejection"). The other shows Democratic candidate Adlai Stevenson vainly trying to persuade a friendly dog (labeled "'Truman Control' Charge"), who is following him, to go back home to the White House. Reflects the efforts of both the Democratic and Republican candidates to distance themselves from President Truman, whose popularity, in 1952, had reached new lows. |
