[Apparently quoting from a telegram]

----------

_Bridgeport [CT] Telegram_, 11 Dec. 1918: p. 2, col. 3:

<<"McCay could make strong eight column cartoon occupying in depth
two-thirds editorial page, showing smaller figures Uncle Sam and Germany
shaking their fists at each other, on left side page and on right side big
head and shoulders of Japan with knife in hand leaning over into picture
and evidently watching chance to strike Uncle Sam in back, title of picture
to be quote Watchful Waiting unquote, sub title quote Look out Uncle Sam
your neighbor Japan is eagerly waiting an opportunity to strike you in the
back.">>
