Description

Banner
editorial
cartoonist
from the
mid-1940s
to the

. A
cheerful
President

is
depicted
walking
back
from a "
Pearl
Harbor
Visit
"
shouldering
a
gun
("That
Forthcoming
Report")
. A
concerned
elephant
("GOP")
looks
on,
asking
"
Hey
!, That
thing

loaded
for
elephant
,
is
it?
"
Fala
,
Roosevelt's
terrier
,
is
seen

briskly

. The
attack

Pearl
Harbor

on
December

Federal

pledged
"
all
of the
resources
of the
country
" to the
effort
.
President
Roosevelt
described
his
budget
as a "
war
budget
"
making
specific
requests
for
funds
,

Congress
dealt
with
through
the
usual
annual
appropriations
process
