| Description | Cartoon shows a Congressman (labeled "G.O.P. Majority in Congress") on a sofa with his arms around two girls. One, a prim young woman (labeled "Ike's Budget"), holds a briefcase labeled "Economy. Tax-Reduction Next Year, More Defense for Less Money"). The other, shown as a glamorous blonde (labeled "Truman-Type Defense Budget"), holds a satchel of money labeled "Continuing Deficit Spending." Their irate father says, "Well, You Two-Timer, Make Up Your Mind." Drawn when President Eisenhower decided in 1953 that a balanced budget and defense cuts took priority over tax cuts. Scolds Republican congressmen who want to increase the defense budget and cut taxes at the same time. |
