Title: Hog-killing set for November 11
Creator(s): Berryman, Clifford Kennedy, 1869-1949, artist
Date Created/Published: 1921.
Summary: Cartoon shows an enormous hog, labeled 'International Armaments,' eating paper money from a trough labeled 'World War Tax.' An unhappy group of farmers, holding empty feed buckets, watch the hog saying, 'Wont it be fine to have a rest!' The farmers include John Bull, Uncle Sam, a Frenchman, an Italian, and an Oriental. By 1921, the Allies, victorious in the First World War, were suffering economic problems and looking for ways to reduce the cost of armaments. On November 12, 1921, a conference called by the United States government convened in Washington to discus reductions in armaments and problems in the Far East.
