# Analysis of Judge Page 5 **Top Cartoon ("You're Telling Us?"):** A judge emerging from the jury room offers ice cream cones to what appears to be a juror, satirizing judicial corruption or improper influence on verdicts. The caption suggests bribery or jury tampering—a commentary on courtroom integrity. **Bottom Cartoon ("Do you mean to say you pay that monkey fifteen dollars a week?"):** Features a man with a radio set and another with an "NRA" (National Recovery Administration) sign, with a small monkey figure. This references 1930s New Deal politics, likely mocking the NRA's regulations and economic policies as absurd—comparing them to paying a monkey. The satire criticizes government intervention in business during the Depression era.
