Commentary:  This print was created for a filmstrip published by the John Henry and Mary Louisa Dunn Bryant Foundation, Los Angeles. The filmstrip was intended for U.S. audiences and contained 59 illustrations by members of the Taller de Gráfica Popular and a script to be read as the filmstrip was advanced. The filmstrip title is sometimes rendered as ¿Quienes quieren la guerra, quienes quieren la paz? (Peter Schneider)

This image appears in frame 24. The script reads: “Dean Acheson quien maneja el Departamento de Estado como si fuera un tanque de guerra, simboliza el espíritu bélico imperialista. Lanzando epítetos y mentiras provocadoras, diriga la formación de bloques agresivos -- rearma a los nazis -- evita el control de la bomba atómica e insiste sinicamente en que los Estados Unidos quieren tan solo la paz.” The English version reads: “And the spokesmen of Wall Street dream of speaking more sharply than they have ever spoken before.”
