WHY DOESN'T HE CUT LOOsE7
This is not picture made by American artist
desiring hurt the feelings of poor John Bull and his pet
lion The picture you is copied from the London By
sander and it made by good fighting Englishman,
Capt Bruce Bairnsfaher It is good cartoon published
English periodical that patriotic and that by the
way devotes good deal of its space to telling the
opinion it has of the United States.
Like other English papers, the "Bystander is firmly
convinced that England saved from destruction at the
hands of Germany, that didn't do duty, and that
we had any kind of gratitude would make England
present of the thousand million dollars have lent
her, and add something to it.
Over here think have done fairly well in hand
ing five thousand millions to her. and five thousand
millions to her Allies without any security and not
asking for the interest
But to return to our British lion the tied to
his tail Captain Barnsfathers cartoon shows that he
knows partly at least what is the matter with England
Read the labels the three tied the lions tail
ireland" " then Poland then Waste"
Waste in England elsewhere, is great and a
heavy handicap Individuals waste and the nation wastes
The individual, 'nobe' lord in case, pays
seventy five thousand dollars for old horse
on which other Engshmen will gamble and waste their
money.
While individual Engishmen squander at home, the
British government spends hundred and fifty million
dollars year trying rule Mesopotama, not succeeding
and spends millions privately, without saying
backing up Poland in preposterous effort to conquer
Russia's one hundred and eighty millions of people.
Lloyd George the brains of England knew enough to
repudiate the Polish enterprise and far possible to
get out of it, leaving it to France.
But Bairnsfather and another Englishman know that
Poland was one tin can the British lions tail.
It seemed too simple to give Poland cheap "mora
support" lend her money, supply her with weapons and
let her beat Bolshevsm and help collect the Cars debt
Since this picture made the British lion has got
rid of the poland tin can.
But ''Waste" and ireland" still stick
With Ireland tied to his tail that lion will go far
fast He and many Englshmen beginning to
realize it,
It is thing to rule brown in Egypt and India
yellow in Asia, black in Africa, by the hundreds
of Millions quite different thing to rule handful of de-
termned WHITE MEN IN IRELAND
This cartoon by English fighting is good
cartoon and in this country learn something from it.
The American eagle has the tin waste extrava
gance stupidity and ncompetency in attached
to of his tail feathers
And he also has his Poland tin can fastened to one
of his legs This country has the foolish Administration
that supplied Poland in the of the League of Ma
ons with locomotives cars guns bullets powder with
which to kill Russians.
Those guns and bullets by the way sent from America
in the of the League of Nations used as the
Polish commander himself confesses by the Polish soldiers
to kill DEFENSELESS Jews
That will be remembered by Jewish men and women
in this country when they the League of
Nations responsible for the killing of their friends and
relations
This is good cartoon, but while we wonder at the
fooshness of England that doesn't know enough to cut
the strings fastened lions tail let us not forget
