"A Burned Child Dreads -- ?"
This cartoon by Fred Little Packer shows President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as a small child about to put his hand on a hot stove labeled "Foreign Wars." His right hand is already tied up in a bandage labeled "The Last War." The cartoon expresses the position of isolationists who feared that the President was not taking adequate steps to keep the United States out of the European crisis.
