Description | Editorial cartoon shows Uncle Sam rattling a small sabre labeled "Budget Cuts" inside an enormous scabbard labeled "Defense." After he took office in 1953, President Eisenhower used his immense prestige and knowledge of the needs of the military to insist on defense cuts, despite the criticism of the Democrats and members of his own party. York won a Pulitzer Prize for his cartoons in the Louisville (Ky.) Times in 1956. |
