# Judge Magazine Page Analysis **Top Cartoon**: Depicts a chaotic barbershop scene where a quartet performs while a barber works. The "Market Tip" column references buying International Nickel stock and cigars—satirizing financial advice columns. The cartoon mocks how such tips circulate in everyday spaces like barbershops, where ordinary people gather investment gossip. **Bottom Cartoon & Article**: "Dark Horses of 1932" profiles Governor Albert Q. Klutsch (Democrat), discussing his controversial 1928 election loss and subsequent political positions on Prohibition, farm subsidies, and war debts. The accompanying illustration shows people huddled beneath dead trees—likely representing economic hardship of the Great Depression era. The satire questions whether Klutsch represents viable presidential material for 1932.

He has sponsored several important articles of legislation within the past two years. One was the “Roughe Detours Bill,” designed to benefit Republican sections of the State. An other was the “Multiple Tobacco Tax Bill,” designed to restrict the impor tation of tobacco from other es and to encourag: falfa growing among his constituents. On national questions Gov, Klutseh is as muddled as anybody. He thinks the farmers ought to. He also thinks Prohibition is. His policy in regard to war debts is, brietly. “Concerning naval disarmament, he says. It is generally admitted that Gov. Klutsch will have to be reckoned with at the party convention. He has a large personal following and is sure to attract others. It is unfortunate for the country and t ; comes from that they never are able to catch up with him.
