Favorable advance reports from Berlin,Germany,World War I,WWI,1917,Uncle Sam

Title: Favorable advance reports from Berlin
Creator(s): Pease, Lute, 1869-1963, artist
Date Created/Published: [1917?]
Summary: Cartoon shows a dismayed Uncle Sam, seated in front of a bowl of soup labeled ''Favorable' Advance Reports from Berlin,' staring at a large spider (labeled ''Certified' Ships Suggestion') that appears to be about to drop into the soup. The cartoon may refer to the situation in early 1917, when President Wilson desperately tried to bring about the end of the World War by persuading the combatants to list the terms under which they would agree to an armistice. Although the Germans reluctantly complied, they simultaneously announced the resumption of unlimited submarine warfare that would apply to neutrals (except for one marked American ship, weekly).
