| Description | Editorial cartoon shows President Eisenhower holding a sign "Peace" and a piggy bank labeled "Budget First" standing with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev who is also holding a sign "Peace" as well as a ballistic missile labeled "Russian Power." With the summit talks approaching between the two heads of state, and a discussion of nuclear disarmament a key topic, both Eisenhower and Khrushchev seemed to put the word "peace" into every public statement. While the Russians were determined to maintain their lead in missile production, Eisenhower was hamstrung by a Congress that put more emphasis on budget tightening than missile building. |
