"DEGENERATE" CARTOONS
Sir,-Your first New Yorker cartoons were degenerate. Poisoning and poverty are not humorous, Sadism in the Weimar Republic was sinister; and the U.S.A. contains menacing fascist forces. The shape of things to come is formed, to however small a degree, by what we | laugh at to-day.
HUMANITARIAN
(Auckland).
