The small text: "Wise men in American blame the Grundy Tariff for Uncle Sam's plight. He needs world trade today as he never needed it before. But High Tariff Walls shut him out."
At the time the Grundy Tariff was passed a lot of short-sighted people thought it was smart to have a High Tariff Wall
Off-white background with black text in the top box: WHY DOESN'T HE TRY THE GATE? Below a political cartoon image of Uncle Sam staring at a tall white wall which reads: HIGH TARIFF WALL (FOREIGN on the left half; U.S. on the right). On the right side of the image is an open door with the word RECIPROCITY written in diagonal (bottom left to upper right). Above the wall are the words (l to r): ASIA, EUROPE, WORLD TRADE, SOUTH AMERICA, CANADA. Below this image is very small text transcribed in the post.
