Its caption, "Of course we may have to change remedies if we don't get results," places the cartoon in the early New Deal, when Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration was trying one emergency program after another against the Great Depression. The record dates it to January 5, 1934, and lists the Washington Star as the probable newspaper. Editorial cartoons like this were a common way for Americans to debate whether the government's experiments were working, and the caption's hedged wording suggests a skeptical view of the administration's methods.
