Ore. A Cartoon Jab From India. Many nations have expressed their bitterness against Uncle Sam for “ making money out of the war.” W e have been held up to ridicule Impar tially by England, Germany. Greece, France, Italy and Japan. Now India may be added to the list. In a cartoon from Hindi Punch, of Bombay, repro duced by Cartoons Magazine, Uncle Sam and Japan are seen, each with large money bags under his arms. The caption reads "Make Hay W hile the Sun Shines," and underneath we read: Jap: " I ’m fillin g my bag with In dian silver while the Austrians and Germans are busy with the war. And you?” Yankee; "Ditto, ditto. And some thing more. I'm fillin g mine with the gold of the allies, besides." Welsh Product. E. G.
