U.S. & Neighbors: Cartoons Magazine Centennial, June 1912, Part 9
We take a brief political break (sort of) to look at the U.S.’s international relationships, circa 1912, all from the June 1912 issue of Cartoons Magazine.
Above, a set of cartoons regarding the ongoing Mexican Revolution, by Frank Michael Spangler and others.

At this time, the case of two such Jewish refugees had risen to prominence, with their appeals to remain in the U.S., taken up by members of Congress.
