Title: Universal service -- on the farm as well as in the trenches
Creator(s): Berryman, Clifford Kennedy, 1869-1949, artist
Date Created/Published: 1917 May.
Summary: World War I cartoon shows Uncle Sam, holding a paper reading 'Plans for Production,' looking over a vast field filled with men hoeing. The cartoonist's signature small bear joins in. After the United States entered World War I, one of its first aims was to supply food for the Allies. Berryman's caption suggests that he advocates using conscription to ensure an adequate level of manpower in the farms as well as in the military. No such universal service provision was ever implemented.
