How to Bail Out The Twentieth Century - Paul W Kroll - February 1972

Paul W Kroll

We have discovered how to prevent heart attacks but not war. We can send astronauts to the moon and bring them back, but we can't bring our armies home. Is there a way to begin all over and make the Twentieth Century the First Century of the New World Tomorrow? In 1968, A leading American publication asked five cartoonists to comment on how to save the 20th century from its great problems. The author of Pogo came up with a unique answer. His cartoon story was cast in the guise of a new motion picture production. The title was: How to Bail Out the 20th Century. On the set, the directors discuss the picture's approach. Pogo asks, "Y-gonna show how to save what's left of this noble ex-spearmint?" The director advises, "We go back! Start over in 1900." Another character chimes in by saying, "We knock off World War 1." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
