| Description | Cartoon shows President Truman as a piano player in a nightclub, playing from upside down sheet music (labeled "Foreign Policy") and boasting, "Never had a lesson in my life!" Secretary of State Dean Acheson, as a waiter, apologizes to an angry customer, saying: "Don't shoot the professor--he's doing the best he can!" Alluding to Truman's lack of experience when he became president and his reputation as an amateur piano player, expresses general conservative disdain for the foreign policy of his administration. |
