Title: The gathering storm
Creator(s): Kirby, Rollin, 1875-1952, artist
Date Created/Published: [1919 Sept.?]
Summary: Cartoon shows Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, standing on the roof of the U.S. Capitol, gazing at looming black storm clouds labeled 'Public Demand for Ratification.' Lodge was known to oppose ratification of the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I, because it contained provisions for establishing a League of Nations. The cartoonist suggests that public sentiment supporting American involvement in the League will prevail. Actually, Lodge was able to use delaying tactics to defeat the treaty.
