Title

Bringing Up Warren

Description

In the foreground, "HARDING" (Warren G. Harding) sits on the floor in a little boy's sailor suite, tearing out the pages of a book labeled "LEAGUE OF NATIONS". As the toddler HARDING rips up and crumbles pages, "TAFT" (William Howard Taft) holds one hand out and the other on his head, shouting "WARREN!!" in an effort to get the toddler to stop. Sweat beats fly from his head as "JOHNSON" (Lyndon B. Johnson) washes dishes in a dress, saying "AW! LEAVE THE CHILD ALONE! THAT THING IS OF NO ACCOUNT, ANYHOW!". Under JOHNSON is a broken cup as he dries a plate with a towel in front of a wash bin.
