A wealthy businessman with his family boards a steamer “to Europe,” while a porter carries their single bag of luggage. When the family returns home, at the end of their summer shopping spree, the businessman’s pockets are empty, and the porter is burdened with countless bags of luggage reflecting their overseas purchases. Caption: He talks loudly of fostering America’s industries – but he will go to Europe every summer and do his shopping there, to save money.
