President Roosevelt appears as a furnace, steaming and smoking, with the pressure gauges at their maximum. Chair of the Republican National Committee George B. Cortelyou, rather than shoveling a pile of coal labeled “war news” into the furnace, holds down the stop valve. Caption: The Japs winning glory! Vesuvius erupting! Zounds! I wish Cortelyou would let Me blow off!
