Editorial cartoon depicting three panels, each panel with its own scene of hypocrisy. In the top panel, a man upset by socialists and unemployment then posts a notice for his apartment complex advancing the rent for his tenants to get their money while he can. In the middle panel, a man is being bribed but refuses to testify against the one bribing him. In the bottom panel, a man is shocked by the spread of lawlessness, but then he buys two cases of bourbon during a potential prohibition-era cartoon.
