| Description | Editorial cartoon shows Uncle Sam as a despondent and disillusioned groom on his wedding night. His bride, shown as a voluptuous woman with a death's head, labeled "Korean 'Police' Action," complains about his attitude. American public opinion initially supported President Truman's decision to intervene when North Korea invaded South Korea, but soured after the Chinese entered the war, and it became obvious that the war had become a stalemate. Batchelor won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937 for a cartoon featuring a similar repulsive woman, inveighing against the evils of war. |
