    Genre

    • Cartoons (Commentary)--American--1900-1910
    • Drawings--American--1900-1910

    Notes

    • -  Caption label from exhibit Shall Not Be Denied: Women Fight for the Vote--Victory, 1918, and Beyond: Jumping on the Bandwagon. Cartoonist Clifford Berryman optimistically predicted in January 1918 that it was the "Last Call" for members of Congress to jump on the suffrage bandwagon. Although premature, he was correct in forecasting growing congressional support. On May 21, 1919, just two days after the 66th Congress convened, the House of Representatives again passed the suffrage bill, this time overwhelmingly--304 yeas to 89 nays, 42 more than needed. Two weeks later, on June 4, 1919, the Senate followed suit.

    The new car

    Reference note

    Summary

    • Editorial cartoon shows politicians and "jazzy political projects" dressed as young flappers demanding keys to the new car. President Calvin Coolidge, who served from 1923 to 1929, holds the keys behind his back. He is enjoying "unprecedented majority power" and public affirmation of his presidency. Coolidge assumed the president on the death of Warren G. Harding in 1923. Popular in 1924, he handily won not only the presidency, but control of Congress.
